Description
LOOK™ PTFE sutures provide clinicians with a premium non-absorbable monofilament option that is highly biocompatible, exceptionally smooth, and uniquely suited for procedures requiring minimal inflammation and the lowest possible bacterial adherence. Made from medical-grade polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), these sutures are a gold standard in periodontal, implant, and regenerative procedures due to their soft handling and reliable long-term wound support.
Key Features
- Monofilament PTFE — minimal bacterial accumulation and virtually no tissue reactivity.
- Soft, supple handling that mimics the comfort of a braided material without the bacterial wicking risk.
- Exceptionally low plaque affinity compared to braided sutures such as silk or polyester.
- Outstanding knot security and predictable knot tightening with minimal memory.
- Long-term wound stability — stable, inert, and non-resorbable.
- Available in undyed (white) monofilament.
Common Dental Use Cases
- Periodontal surgery — gum grafting, connective tissue grafts, and regenerative procedures.
- Dental implant surgery — secure flap closure around implants and healing abutments.
- Bone grafting & GBR — stabilizing soft tissue over grafts and securing membranes.
- Ridge augmentation — precise, stable wound closure during extended healing cycles.
