Dolphin Sutures, one of the global leaders in surgical sutures has announced the expansion of its Dental product portfolio for the first time in India to launch non-absorbable Polytetrafluoroethylene sutures. The new TEFLENE product line includes dense PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene).

TEFLENE is a monofilament non-absorbable, extremely smooth suture material composed of a strand of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), a synthetic fluoropolymer of tetrafluoroethylene that is very strong, knots well and is biologically inert. The material has a very low friction coefficient, meaning it slides easily through tissue compared to other materials, thereby limiting the possibility of tissue damage. Its PTFE is designed to be an ultra-soft, high density surgical suture making it an ideal choice for oral and maxillofacial surgery.

Features:
• 100% Medical Grade PTFE which is biologically inert and highly biocompatible
• Monofilament structure does not allow bacteria wicking into the surgical site
• Teflene sutures being non-absorbable keeps the surgical site reliably closed.
• Soft and flexible for patients (not stiff like most monofilaments).
• Teflene sutures are available from U.S.P. size 2-0 to size 6-0

Dolphin Sutures is excited to now provide advanced sutures to its customers for ridge augmentation, GTR and GBR and other relevant procedures. As a market leader it is continuously diversifying and growing its available solutions in order to address the specific needs and preferences of clinicians.
