VTK file visualization and surface/volume mesh extraction

I have a output vtk file from a program that i need to use to create a surface mesh. Some, issues i am having is loading the file in slicer shows strands of surface instead of a clean/connected surface. Changing the view to wireframe does shows lines connecting parts where there is no surface in the viewport. The missing surfaces does not appear when it is opened in paraview. As a result i am not sure if my geometry is clean or not. This is important since i need to create a mesh for my subsequent analysis.

This bring me to my second question. Can we create a mesh file (obj/stl) from vtk file in slicer. I tried using the save module but the only option available to me are vtk and vtu. I visualized the vtk file through the “models” module
