The Morelli Boone Gauge Stainless Steel 3.5mm to 5.0mm is a stainless steel instrument for marking orthodontic bands and positioning brackets and accessories. Built with heat-treated tips, it offers four stepped measuring surfaces across the 3.5 mm to 5.0 mm span most often used on posterior teeth, letting the operator reproduce the same height from one tooth to the next.
