Luxcryl PGA | EP 0.7 & USP 6/0 | Surgical suture with 12mm | 3/8 Circle reverse cutting needle, 45cm | Pack of 12 | Product reference: PG60DS12

Luxcryl PGA Sutures are braided and coated multifilament sutures composed of polyglycolic acid (PGA).

Materials: These sutures feature a coating of polycaprolactone and calcium stearate (1%), which enhances smooth passage through tissue and secure knotting. The material is designed for predictable and controlled absorption via hydrolytic action, with complete absorption occurring within 60 to 90 days.

Tensile strength retention: Luxcryl PGA Sutures exhibit excellent tensile strength retention, with approximately 70% strength remaining after 14 days, 50% after 21 days, and 20% after 28 days.

Color: These violet-colored sutures minimize tissue reaction and are suitable for a wide range of soft tissue closure applications.

Soft tissue closure in oral surgery: Ideal for closing incisions following extractions, bone grafts, or implant placements.

Periodontal surgeries: Used to secure gingival flaps during procedures such as flap surgeries or pocket reduction.

Apical surgeries (Endodontic): Suitable for suturing tissues following apicoectomy or retrograde filling procedures.

Oral biopsies: Provides secure closure after soft tissue biopsies.

Orthognathic surgeries: Utilized for soft tissue closure in surgeries correcting jaw alignment or other maxillofacial conditions.

Pediatric dentistry: Ideal for cases requiring absorbable sutures, minimizing the need for follow-up suture removal.

Predictable absorption: Fully absorbed within 60 to 90 days, minimizing the need for suture removal in absorbable suture cases.

Optimal tensile strength: Maintains sufficient strength post-implantation, with 70% retention after 14 days and 50% after 21 days, ensuring reliable wound support during the critical healing period.

Minimal tissue reaction: Reduces the risk of inflammation or irritation, promoting smoother healing and patient comfort.

Enhanced knot security: Coated with polycaprolactone and calcium stearate for excellent knotting properties, ensuring stability during procedures.

Smooth handling and passage: Braided structure with coating facilitates ease of use, minimizing tissue trauma during suturing.

Versatile application: Suitable for a variety of surgical procedures, including dental and soft tissue closures.
