{"product_id":"pdo-polydioxanone-sutures-12pcs-pack","title":"PDO Polydioxanone Sutures 12pcs pack","description":"\u003cp\u003eDSI Polydioxanone (PDO) suture is preferred among medical practitioners due to its monofilament, synthetic composition, which minimizes irritation and tissue reaction post-implantation compared to natural-origin absorbable sutures. The DSI PDO variant offers numerous advantages over other synthetic absorbable sutures. Notably, it boasts superior tensile strength and flexibility, along with a prolonged tissue approximation period, making it particularly suitable for internal tissues and procedures requiring durable absorbable materials. With its impressive tensile strength and pliability, DSI PDO suture can provide wound support for up to 50 days.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDSI PDO Surgical suture is suitable for pediatric cardiovascular, ophthalmic, digestive, plastic\/reconstructive, general, and cuticle surgeries, ensuring secure tissue approximation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDSI PDO sutures fulfill the need for extended wound support through a simple hydrolytic process, offering up to 50 days of healing assistance. Typically, these sutures retain 75% of their initial tensile strength after 4 weeks, followed by 50% at 6 weeks, and 25% at 8 weeks, eventually being fully absorbed by the body within 180 days.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIndications:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTooth extractions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePeriodontal surgery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImplant surgery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eoral surgical procedures, including biopsy excisions, frenectomy, apicoectomy, and alveolar ridge preservation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoft tissue grafting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOphthalmic surgeries\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlastic and reconstructive surgeries\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrthopedic surgeries\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures \u0026amp; Benefits:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePolydioxanone material - Crafted from high-quality polydioxanone polymer, ensuring biocompatibility and gradual absorption within the body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAbsorbability - PDO sutures are absorbable, they are broken down and metabolized by the body over time, eliminating the need for suture removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTensile Strength - Exhibits adequate initial tensile strength to hold wound edges together during the early stages of healing, providing secure wound closure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBiocompatible - Biocompatible material minimizes the risk of adverse tissue reactions or inflammation, enhancing patient safety and reducing postoperative complications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVersatility - PDO sutures can be used in a wide range of surgical procedures across different specialties due to their versatility and compatibility with various tissue types\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGradual degradation - Allows for sustained wound support while facilitating natural tissue healing, with degradation rates suitable for different tissue environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnhanced patient comfort - Absorbable nature eliminates the need for suture removal, reducing patient discomfort and enhancing overall postoperative experience\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSterilize packaging - Each suture is individually packaged and sterilized to ensure compliance with medical standards and reduce the risk of surgical site infections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew needle - Equipped with a new improved atraumatic needle for less friction and tissue irritation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechnical Information:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCharacteristics: Monofilament, synthetic, absorbable, sterile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChemical structure: Polydioxanone (PDS\/PDO), a synthetic, absorbable polymer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCoating: None\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor: Violet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWound support: approximately 4-6 weeks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComplete resorption: 180-210 days\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTensile strength: Approx 78% at 14 days, Approx 70% after 28 days, Approx 58% after 43 days, Approx 41% after 57 days\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTissue reaction: Minimal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCapillarity: None\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShape memory: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKnot security: Excellent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmoothness: Smooth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSawing effect: Limited\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeedle type: Needle type: 19mm reverse cut 3\/8 circle atraumatic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe package includes 12 x 75cm sutures in each pack, with a 19 mm atraumatic needle 3\/8 circle\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSizes for selection: 2\/0, 3\/0, 4\/0, 5\/0 USP\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"564\" height=\"317\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/8n2FGXf_mR4\" title=\"Dental Suture Types - which one to choose?\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Starcona Dental Supply","offers":[{"title":"2\/0 USP","offer_id":53542746194199,"sku":"DSI-DS-PDS20","price":64.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3\/0 USP","offer_id":53542746226967,"sku":"DSI-DS-PDS30","price":64.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4\/0 USP","offer_id":53542746259735,"sku":"DSI-DS-PDS40","price":64.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5\/0 USP","offer_id":53542746292503,"sku":"DSI-DS-PDS50","price":64.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0795\/6971\/5479\/files\/PDOPolydioxanoneSutures12pcspack.webp?v=1781620235","url":"https:\/\/starcona.com\/products\/pdo-polydioxanone-sutures-12pcs-pack","provider":"Starcona Dental Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
