Q

What is an active screw (post) vs. inactive post?

A

An active post is one that engages (screws into) the dentin in the canal space. Traditionally, the major
concern about active posts has been the potential for vertical fracture of the tooth during placement of the
post. active posts are indicated when the canal length is insufficient to gain adequate retention with a
passive post
