Braided-silk is an example of an absorbable suture material.

Performing suturing properly can decrease the potential for postoperative infections.

The primary objective of suturing is to only achieve functional outcomes, disregarding esthetic results.

Synthetic absorbable sutures include materials like Surgical gut.

Emergency equipment should be available only during surgical procedures and not prior.

Tissue management involves operating gently and ensuring instruments are sharp to minimize trauma.

Ultrasonic scaling should be performed on patients with infectious diseases for safety reasons.

Hemostasis can be maintained through proper suturing techniques.

The sharp tip of a cutting needle is oriented downward.

Knot tying in suturing consists of three components: the loop created by the knot, the knot itself, and the suture length.

A horizontal mattress suture is classified as an interrupted suturing technique.

Coe pak is a type of suturing material commonly used in periodontal surgery.

Continuous sutures can enhance tissue tension, leading to potential necrosis of the sutured area.

The swaged end of a surgical needle is the widest part referred to as the grasping area.

Patients should remove the periodontal pack immediately after surgery to facilitate healing.

Reverse cutting needles are designed to be safer when suturing delicate tissues.

Excessive tension on sutured tissues may induce blanching and lead to the loss of the suture entirely.

The ears of a knot in suturing are the sections of suture placed within the tissue.

Antibiotics like amoxicillin should be prescribed during the first postoperative week.

Sensitive roots may only occur after surgical procedures and not spontaneously.

Desensitizing agents such as potassium chloride can be used for treating sensitive roots.

Over-extension of packing beyond the mucogingival junction can contribute to postoperative pain.

The hydrodynamic mechanism involves the transmission of stimuli through fluid displacement.

Sodium citrate is an ineffective desensitizing agent for sensitive roots.

Local lymphadenopathy and elevated temperature can be symptoms of postoperative infection.

Pain associated with sensitive roots is only caused by physical damage to dental structures.

Emergency treatment for postoperative pain should only be pursued if the pain is unbearable.

During the first three hours after surgery, it is advisable to consume hot foods to help the pack harden.

Hemorrhage during surgery is best controlled with oxidized cellulose and Gel foam.

A common cause of syncope during surgery is excessive exertion from the patient.

It is recommended to brush over the surgical pack during the first day after surgery for better hygiene.

Sensitivity to percussion may arise from inflammation extending into the periodontal ligament.

Suturing techniques can significantly affect the healing process after periodontal surgery.

Absorbable sutures are designed to remain in the tissue indefinitely.

Using sterile techniques and proper infection control measures is crucial prior to suturing.

The reverse cutting needle is primarily used for suturing delicate tissues due to its sharp edges.

Post-operative care involves ensuring the patient is well-informed about sutures and potential complications.

Suture materials that are non-absorbable remain in the tissue until they are manually removed.

An interrupted suture technique provides continuous closure along the incision site.

A common infection control measure prior to surgical procedures includes using antiseptic solutions.

The body of a surgical needle plays a crucial role in preventing tissue trauma during suturing.

Poor patient motivation can be a contraindication for periodontal surgery.
