STEEL FIXING MINISCREW BIRA 2.0X13

MANUFACTURE MATERIAL

Manufactured in medical grade stainless steel.

Advantages (Increased mechanical properties):

• Does not osseointegrate.
• Intraradicular and extraradicular placement.
• Lower risk of fracture than titanium.
• Steel verses Titanium. Titanium has a higher weight-resistance ratio compared to steel. Does not affect us due to the force exerted with the orthodontics.
