Short-Term Support for Extractions and Routine Implant Closure
When your closure needs temporary support, GLYCOLON offers an absorbable monofilament option for oral soft-tissue approximation—from surgical extraction flaps to routine implant closures and small biopsy sites.
Suture for extractions
Wisdom teeth extraction suture
Implant flap closure suture
70% strength at 7 days • 40% at 14 days
Approximately this proportion of original tensile strength remains in implantation studies, according to the U.S. IFU.
For cases where short-term support is appropriate; not indicated when extended approximation of tissue under stress is required.
