Answer:
8-14mm by 1mm increments, then 16-50mm by 2mm increments
Question:
Besides the actual size of the larger compression FT screws, what is the key design difference between the 5.0 and 7.0 compression FT screws compared to the smaller compression FT screws?Variable threaded pitch Cannulated Comes with a profile drill Are tapered on the outer diameter 1 / 4
Headless design
Answer:
Are tapered on the outer diameter
Question:
True or False: a 3.5 mini compression FT screws schieves a statically
significant higher maximum push-out when compared to an acumed acutrak
- mini screw and a synthes 3.0mm Hebert screw. This may lead to a better
long term stability and less likely screw backout/
Answer:
false
