Single Center Open-Label Post Market Clinical Follow-Up (PMCF) -Study on the Performance of Safety of SILKAM® Suture Material in Oral Surgery

Assessment of SILKAM® suture material in mucosal closure in oral surgery (mucosal sutures). A prospective, monocentric, single arm observational study.

The aim of this Non Interventional Study is to collect systematically and proactively different clinical parameters regarding safety, effectiveness, and performance of SILKAM® suture material under the daily routine clinical practice when is intended to be used for oral surgery. All patients enrolled will be prospectively followed until suture removal, which takes place approximately one week post-operatively.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Patients taking medication that might affect wound healing
• Patients having a condition that might affect wound healing.
• Patients with hypersensitivity or allergy to the suture material.
• Participation in another (Randomized) Clinical Trial / Clinical Study.
