The dental suture market is a specialized subset of the broader wound care market, focusing specifically on products used for oral surgeries and dental procedures requiring the closure of incisions or wounds. Dental sutures are utilized by oral surgeons, dentists, and periodontists to facilitate the healing process after extractions, implant placements, reconstructive surgeries, and periodontal surgeries. These sutures come in a variety of materials, including but not limited to, resorbable and non-resorbable types. Resorbable sutures are typically made from materials that can be broken down and absorbed by the body over time, eliminating the need for suture removal. Non-resorbable sutures, on the other hand, are made from materials that remain intact and require a follow-up visit for removal. The choice of suture material and type is dictated by the specific dental procedure, patients' healing characteristics, and the preference of the dental professional. Innovations in this market often aim at enhancing the patient's comfort, reducing the risk of infection, and promoting more efficient wound healing.
