As if we used, for example, silk suture in oral surgery, there is no need to mention the size of the suture as the most common size is 3/0. In addition, several studies showed that there are no statistical or clinical differences between the most commonly used size of the gauge needles in dentistry (i.e., 25, 27, and 30 gauge) [14]. …
