Abstract

As oral and maxillofacial surgeons we do come across various intra oral lesions, laceration and often we induce such, through incisions and dissections. Thus, we are faced with the challenge to select the proper material to approximate such tissue injury in order to enable it to heal. There are various materials commercially available, yet not all can be used intra orally. We shall delve deeper into the efficacy of non-absorbable suture materials which are commonly used intraorally.
