LOOK 553B is a 3-0 Plain Gut absorbable suture mounted on a 24mm C-7 reverse cutting needle with a 1/2 circle curvature and an extended 27” (70cm) strand. It is ideal for broader intraoral closures and cases requiring deeper reach.

Plain Gut sutures are derived from purified collagen and offer rapid resorption, typically beginning around 5 to 7 days and completing by 7 to 10 days in the oral cavity. This makes them excellent for sites that heal quickly or where suture removal may not be feasible.

The C-7 needle, at 24mm with a 1/2 circle profile, is a versatile choice for general intraoral closures, providing strong drive and control in soft tissue handling.
