MONOTEX® PTFEP R E M I U M S U T U R E

Stronger, Sharper

The needles are made from 300 series stainless steel, which has greater tensile strength, higher ductility, and less brittleness than 400 series stainless steel.

N E E D L E S

Ultra Smooth Surface.

M o n o t e x ® is less porous than other PTFE sutures. The proprietary monofilament construction reduces the potential for bacterial migra-tion into the surgical site and, unlike most monofilament sutures, its softness makes it comfortable for patients.

S T R O N G E RLess likely to break when reshaping.

S H A R P E RLess force, less tissue trauma.

MONOTEX® is an excellent suture choice for dental bone grafting and implant procedures. It’s clean, comfortable and has little to no package memory, which results in excellent handling and knot security.

Our PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) was designed to be an ultra-soft, high density surgical suture. The monofilament construction and low surface porosity reduces bacterial migration along the suture line.
