MEMORIA® LEAF SPRING ACTIVATED EXPANDER*

This device is an evolution in the design of the previous spring-loaded expander, designed with technical and scientific collaboration of Dr. Claudio Lanteriand Mr. Filippo Francolini. This new expander features a small size body, andit is equipped with two Nickel Titanium MEMORIA® leaf springs allowingthe release of calibrated and continuous forces to promote the expansion ofthe maxillary arch. Re-loading is needed when the two opposing leaf springsmove apart: the endoral activation, which must be done in the dental office,will put the springs in contact again thus allowing the release of the selectedforce. The expander is available in two models, 450 g and 900 g and eachone of these is available in two expansion capacities: 6 mm and 9 mm. Theexpander is supplied with the leaf springs (2 or 3 according to the size) readycompressed by two metal staples that the technician will remove after theconstruction of the device.The package includes a special clip with safety leash to keep the leaf springscompressed, facilitating the technician and the clinician in specific phases ofthe realization and treatment. Inside the package are also available practicalinstructions for use where all the construction steps and methods of deliveryto the clinician are illustrated.Supplied with a swivel key with handle to facilitate the endoral activation bythe professonal.Pack of 1
