It is commonly used in oral surgery and dental procedures due to its non-reactive nature with tissues. 2. Polyglycollic acid: Polyglycollic acid is an absorbable suture material that is broken down by hydrolysis. 3. Vicryl: Vicryl is a synthetic, absorbable suture material that is commonly used in dentistry due to its good handling properties and tissue reactivity profile. 4.
