This ease report describ es placement of three Flexi-Flange posts in a first bicuspid, canine a nd central incisor. The Flexi-Flange system was designed to offer high retention of the post in the root, superior distribution of stresses on insertion and under function, and longterm resistance to metal fati gue.
