How to read the size
Titanium and gold-plated steel posts have a size made of a letter and a digit, for example M4. According to the description of the gold-plated steel posts:
- the letter gives the length: S 8 mm, M 9.5 mm, L 12 mm;
- the digit gives the diameter: 1 = 1.00 mm, 2 = 1.20 mm, 3 = 1.35 mm, 4 = 1.50 mm.
PRIMA fiberglass posts come in the same four diameters, numbered 1 to 4. On tapered posts, the color shows the diameter; the green ones are 1.50 mm. Other root canal products are in endodontics.
