DSI PTFE sutures stand out as the ideal choice for dental procedures such as periodontal, bone graft, implant surgery, and more. They are non-absorbable and biologically inert, delivering virtually no inflammation in the oral cavity environment. Not only are they soft and comfortable for the patient but also easy for the doctor to work with due to their special handling properties and knot security. DSI PTFE Suture is crafted from 100% polytetrafluoroethylene polymer and can elicit minimal tissue reactions. Unlike other sutures, this one is resistant to weakening by tissue enzymes and can withstand the presence of infection without degradation. In addition, it does not get absorbed by the body.
Composed of a strand of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), the DSI PTFE suture is a monofilament, non-absorbable material prized for its softness and smoothness. This strong synthetic fluoropolymer of tetrafluoroethylene offers superior knotting capabilities, and its lack of additives makes it biologically inert. As an undyed suture, it is most often used in orthopedic and general surgeries.
DSI PTFE Sutures contain no additives and are without any colorants. They offer a soft and smooth composition that allows for a seamless transition between tissue with minimal trauma to the patient. This also reduces the chance of bacteria growth. Furthermore, DSI PTFE sutures resist irritation from tissues and ensure adequate support throughout the healing process. Patients find these sutures particularly comfortable, leading to higher satisfaction rates than other types of sutures.
DSI Sutures are of the highest grade in terms of sterility and meet stringent "Grade A" sterilization standards. This process involves radiology techniques, as well as gamma-ray sterilization, which can take up to one month to complete without interruption. All sutures are licensed by CE and ISO and will come packaged with a double layer of sterile protection inside aluminum foil for an added level of security.
Crafted with careful attention to detail, DSI Suture needles are made from a 300-series surgical steel alloy. Meticulously designed to be as slim as possible without comprising strength, their laser-sharpened edges ensure that sutures can be successfully passed through tissue with minimal injury. Crafted with exceptional rigidity to avoid any bending, while ductility minimizes breaking. Incredibly stable in a needle holder and resilient against corrosion.
