Description
Richmond MultiPly Rayon/Poly Nonwoven Sponges stack eight plies into one sponge, and that thickness is what oral surgery and periodontic work actually needs from a sponge. The 8-ply body absorbs twice as much as traditional gauze, exodontia or 4-ply nonwoven sponges while keeping the surface dry. The same thickness makes the sponge hold up under bite pressure after surgery.
- Twice the Absorption – the 8-ply construction absorbs twice as much as gauze or standard 4-ply nonwovens.
- Bite Pressure Thickness – the layered body is thick enough to serve as a pressure sponge after surgery.
- Dry Surface – the sponge maintains a dry working surface while it absorbs.
- Lint Free – no loose threads to remove from the field.
8-Ply Nonwoven Sponges for Oral Surgery and Periodontics
Oral surgery and periodontic procedures produce more fluid than a standard sponge is built to handle, and doubling up thin sponges is a clumsy fix. This line solves it with construction, eight plies of rayon and poly nonwoven layered into a single sponge. The result absorbs twice as much as traditional sponges, including gauze, exodontia and 4-ply nonwoven formats. That capacity also keeps the working surface dry, which matters when visibility is already limited. The thickness is functional after the procedure too, giving patients a sponge with enough body for bite pressure. The nonwoven surface is lint free, so there are no loose threads to pick out of the field, and sizes cover 2x2, 3x3 and 4x4.

Why Choose Richmond Dental?
Absorbency claims are easy to print, but this one is structural, eight plies against the usual four. For surgical schedules, that means fewer sponge changes and a field that stays visible longer.
- Fewer Changes – double capacity means the sponge lasts longer in the field.
- Better Visibility – a dry surface keeps the surgical site readable.
- Dual Purpose – the same sponge serves during surgery and for bite pressure after.
- Clean Field – lint free construction leaves nothing behind.
