Description
LOOK™ Chromic Gut sutures are absorbable natural sutures designed for reliable soft tissue closure in oral and periodontal procedures. Chromic treatment extends tensile strength while maintaining smooth handling and predictable absorption — ideal when suture removal is not preferred.
Key Features
- Chromic-treated for extended tensile strength versus plain gut.
- ~10–14 days of tensile support with absorption completing in approximately 20–30 days intraorally.
- Smooth passage and reliable knot security for consistent handling.
- Wet-packed for optimal flexibility and suppleness at time of use.
- Available in common dental gauges (2-0 to 5-0) and multiple needle configurations.
Common Dental Use Cases
- General intraoral closure following extractions
- Periodontal flap procedures
- Grafting procedures requiring short-to-moderate wound support
- Cases where suture removal is undesirable or follow-up is uncertain
Material & Construction
- Material: Natural collagen (catgut), chromic-treated.
- Type: Natural, absorbable, twisted multifilament.
- Absorption mechanism: Enzymatic degradation, accelerated in the oral environment.
- Lengths: 18" and 27".
Always exercise clinical judgment based on wound type and individual healing expectations.
