If you are a dental surgeon or dentistry student this is the application for you, it reviews the various suturing techniques used in oral surgery.

For each suture you will find:

- a VIDEO demonstrating how to perform it,
- its advantages,
- its drawbacks,
- ts indications.

The videos were filmed using silicon models to make them as clear as possible. With V. 2.0 we added clinic videos.

- How would you perform a post-extraction cross suture on a patient taking anticoagulant medication so as to keep the haemostatic sponge in the socket in place?

- How would you perform a simple continuous suture after multiple extractions and/or alveolar ridge correction?

These are just two of the questions this application answers. In both cases, a loop suture would have been less effective and a waste of time.

The list of suturing techniques dealt with in this application, which currently stands at 9, will be gradually increased with free updates. Today 15 with V. 2.6.

We would be glad to receive your suggestions and comments.

Pros and cons of Suturing techniques Videos app for iPhone and iPad

Suturing techniques Videos app good for

Very clear Video of multiple suturing techniques. I was looking for a general surgery suturing video but didnt find one. I think there is one that has a lot of other information, but also costs a lot more. At any rate, very happy with this one. Very simple to follow, along with explanations for why this or that suture technique is used.
I am a 4th year dental student and I have used this for about a year now.

Some bad moments
