"I have been routinely using UNIFY® PGA sutures during my periodontal and implant surgeries. It is easy to use and the primary flap closure is excellent. I highly recommend these sutures to the practitioners."

UNIFY® Polyglycolic Acid sutures, better known as PGA, is a braided coated synthetic absorbable surgical suture composed of glycolide, a nonantigenic and nonpyrogenic polymer. PGA is indicated for use in general soft tissue approximation and/or ligation, including use in ophthalmic procedures, but not for use in cardiovascular and neurological procedures. Our PGA sutures meet all requirements established by the United States Pharmacopeia (USP).

Characteristics of UNIFY® PGA sutures:

• Drill End Press Fit needles for maximum strength between thread and needles
• Initial Strength Comparable to that of Nylon and Gut
• Synthetic suture absorbing at a moderate rate
• Lower tissue reaction than gut sutures with no risk of toxicity
• Ultra sharp needle point for atraumatic tissue penetration
• Needle coated with silicone for smooth tissue passage
• Precise knot placement
• Predictable absorption profile
• Color: Violet
• Strength duration: 28-35 days
• Absorb duration: 55-70 days
