The ATOZ Expander is used to stretch and split the mid-palatal suture and subsequently increase the width of the maxillary arch.For the procedure, the ATOZ Expander is placed under the patient's palate, and the ATOZ Mini-Screw and the ATOZ Screwdriver, which are registered with the FDA separately from this product, are used to fix the ATOZ Expander. After that, use the ATOZ activation key to expand this product. The patient's palate is then forcibly opened by the force of the expander. The gap will naturally form bone over time and remain permanently expanded, and the ATOZ Expander and the ATOZ Mini-Screw are removed when the patient's palate is sufficiently wide.INDICATION FOR USEThe ATOZ Expander is used to stretch and split the mid-palatal suture and subsequently increase the width of the maxillary archTrade Name: ATOZ ExpanderModel Number: T-UNI-F12
An orthodontic device intended to gradually spread the maxillary arch and/or improve teeth alignment. It is typically in the form of either: 1) a segmented body separated by a palate expander screw; or 2) a spring-like mechanism, positioned in the palate cavity with wires extending laterally, ending in bonded teeth-engaging bands. It is intended to remain in the oral cavity for the duration of treatment (fixed), and may be periodically adjusted by an orthodontist to effect skeletal and/or dental changes. This is a single-patient device intended to be used for the duration of treatment (single-use) before being discarded.
