Description

The Crane Acrylic Herbst Appliance is comprised of upper and lower patient-specific acrylic splints,connected bilaterally via a telescoping Herbst mechanism that orients the jaw in a predeterminedrelationship. The Herbst mechanism allows the patient vertical and lateral range of movementwhile the jaws are oriented in the biting relationship determined by the positioning of themechanism as it connects to the respective arch splint.The appliance positions the lower jaw forward and open vertically from its normal location whichcauses a protrusion in the mandible in relation to the maxilla. The appliance aims through thisrepositioning (which is temporary while the appliance is being used) to increase air exchange, andto reduce snoring and apnea by increasing pharyngeal space.The prescribing dentist determines the repositioning of the mandible through a patient-specificprotrusive bite registration taken by the dentist. The dentist is also able to adjust the mandible'sposition by altering the Herbst mechanism, and/or adjusting the acrylic portion of the device. TheAcrylic Splint Herbst Appliance is removable by the patient, and is worn while sleeping to supportthe mandible in a forward position determined by the prescribing dentist.

OSSEON LLC OF-0222 Osseoflex SB Steerable Balloon (10ga/2ml)

The Osseoflex® SB is designed for use in balloon kyphoplasty. The balloon serves to create a cavity in the vertebral body, thereby reducing the fracture while still while still allowing for cement interdigitation. The balloon catheter is the functional part of the device that creates a cavity and reduces the fracture. The balloon catheter provides a conduit through which the physician can inflate the balloon at the distal end of the catheter. After the bone is disrupted, PMMA is injected through an Osseoflex® SN steerable needle to fill the previously created void(s). An access channel is required for the Osseoflex® SB placement. The Osseoflex® SB device does not create an access channel; the Osseoflex® SB is designed to follow a pre-existing channel created by an access channel device.If the balloon has an Articulating Stylet inserted it enables the steerable feature of the balloon. The articulating or steering feature of the device assists the clinician in directing the device through the pre-existing channel. The Osseoflex® SB actuation knob can be turned clockwise to aid in directing the distal portion of the device. Turning the actuation knob counter-clockwise will relax the device and allow the device to be returned to it's start position. The device should be manipulated only while under fluoroscopic observation with radiographic equipment that provides high quality images.
