Sutures

A complete range for oral surgery

Download
The complete Sweden & Martina range of sutures includes a combination of natural and synthetic threads, absorbable and non-absorbable, and half-circle, cutting and tapercut needles of various lengths.

Black needles

Part of the Sweden & Martina range includes series 300 needles in an even more resistant steel, treated with a particular hardening process that gives them a “burnished” finish. The “black” needle ensures greater resistance values and better penetrability. The burnishing of the surface also makes them easy to see even in bleeding sites. Black needles are fitted with non-absorbable synthetic threads: SOFILUM, POLISOFT, POLIMID, POLINYL.

Non-traumatic needles

The non-traumatic nature of Sweden & Martina needles is given by the special morphology of the tail of the needle “with closed channel”, through which the thread is joined perfectly to the centre of the needles, with maximum reduction of the “step” between the margin of the needle and the start of the thread.

Variety of shapes

Besides the classic half-circle and cutting needle, the Sweden&Martina range includes the TAPERCUT needle with a rectangular tip and cylindrical body, flattened at the side for easy grip.

Non-absorbable natural threads

SILK, non-absorbable suture of natural origin (silk) with a braided structure coated with a thin micro membrane of silicone, black in colour. Natural, exceptional manageability and softness.

Non-absorbable synthetic threads

SOFILUM, polyester suture braided and coated with a micro membrane of PTFE, extremely versatile and with excellent waterproof properties thanks to PTFE which reduces bacterial infiltrations to a minimum; POLISOFT, braided polyester coated with a thin micro membrane of green silicone, extremely uniform gauge, non-capillary surface; POLIMID, the exceptional “pseudo-monofilament” in polyamide 6 composed of twisted filaments and coated with a sheath of black polyamide, high resistance, easy to knot; POLINYL, monofilament in polyamide 6, black.

MONOSOFT Non-absorbable PTFE monofilament 
Monosoft is a non-absorbable PTFE thread, white (undied). Soft and easy to be handled like silk and resistant to bacterial infiltrate typical of the monfilament threads, the PTFE sutures are used in implantology and periodontal surgical procedures where the bacterial  infiltration and the possible inflammation are to be avoided.

Absorbable synthetic threads

RESORB and RESORB FAST, synthetic structures in polyglycolic acid, violet in colour, respectively with medium (90 days) and fast absorption (42 days).

Some products may not be regulatory cleared/released for sale in all markets. Please contact the local Sweden & Martina or distributor sales office for current products availability.
