Omnia® Monofast Monofilament Sutures - Absorbable

Monofast is a synthetic absorbable sterile suture composed of a copolymer made from polyglycolic acid and polycaprolactone. The suture is easy to handle and glides through the tissue, it has a low memory effect and a high initial tensile strength which confer elasticity and improve knotting properties. MONOFAST elicits a minimal inflammatory response, followed by the on-site development of fibrous connective tissue. In periodontal surgery its monofilament characteristics reduce plaque retention.The progressive loss of resistance to traction and absorption of the suture occurs by hydrolysis, in which the polymer breaks down into adipic acid which is subsequently absorbed and metabolized by the tissues. Absorption starts as loss of resistance to traction without a noticeable loss of mass. Retention of the MONOFAST suture is equal to 68-78% of the initial resistance  to traction after the first week and about 30% after the end of the second week. The suture is fully absorbed after a period of 90-110 days. Its original tensile strength up to 14 days is high and is lost after 28 days.  


             Omnia Surgical Sutures a complete range of high-quality sutures made of silk, polyester, polyamid, monofast, absorbable PGA and PTFE.

             

HS (RC) Sharp Tip needle, Sharp body.

The HS needle is also known as "triangular" or "reverse cutting" needle, since it has cutting edges on the sides and outer curve. Due to its cutting edges, this needle easily penetrates tissues and is suitable for almost all uses. It provides an excellent penetration capacity and great solidity, and is fit for sutures with periosteum incision and in case of thick mucosa.

EXTRASHARP (ERC) tip needle, Sharp body

The EXTRASHARP needle is designed specifically for surgery, where cosmetic results are important.

Two sides sharpened thin point that allows a smooth and progressive penetration through the tissues and reduces the danger of tissue cutout. The needle is small, very sharp and requires little pressure during surgery. It maintains a optimal long-lasting cutting capacity .
