Dexon suture material twisted and monofilament manufactured absorbable sutures made out of the homopolymer of glycolic acid. Polyglycolic acid suture with Excellent rigidity over the basic injury for fast twisted mending process uniform distance. Dexon suture absorption time
The advantage of using suture mainly, it causes less tissue damage. Predictable assimilation profile
Indication
DEXON sutures used in delicate tissue.
Ligation including use in
Ophthalmic Surgery
Cardiovascular tissue
Neural tissue.
Monofilament demonstrated for use as absorbable sutures in microsurgery and ophthalmic surgery.
Contraindications
The utilization of this suture contraindicated in patients with known sensitivities or allergies to its segments.
These sutures, being absorbable, ought not to be used where broadened guess of tissue is required.
Mode of Actions
DEXON sutures inspire a negligible intense incendiary response in tissues, followed by the continuous epitome of the suture by connective tissue.
The progressive loss of rigidity and inevitable ingestion of sutures Occurs in Different processes. Hydrolysis, where the polymer corrupts to glycolic acid subsequently retained and used by the body.
No proof of antigenicity,
Fundamental poisonous quality,
Cancer-causing nature,
Mutagenicity,
Teratogenicity or unfriendly impacts on conceptive performance.

Dexon suture Tensile Strength
Subcutaneous tissue implantation thinks about in rodents demonstrate.
DEXON sutures hold around 65% of the first rigidity for about fourteen days and roughly 35% at three weeks
Use of fine needle holder for better usage and suturing
Absorption
Polyglycolic acid suture absorption starts as lost rigidity without apparent loss of mass.
Dexon suture material assimilation somewhere in the range of 60 and 90 days. Dexon suture absorption time same like PDS suture
