Mobile bearing technology

Restoring natural motion to the cervical spine.

The controlled mobility of the patented mobile core is the foundation of Mobi-C. With vertebrae and neck muscle movement, the Mobi-C implant is free to twist and slide left-to-right, and front-to-back, as well as rotate.

Self-adjusting

A return to physiological mobility.

The centre of rotation at each level of the cervical spine is variable and constantly changing. Mobi-C was designed to adapt to the Instantaneous Axis of Rotation through its self-adjusting mobile core. The mobile core allows the vertebrae above and below the disc to move, to maintain normal neck motion.

Ease of insertion

One-step insertion.

To insert the Mobi-C Cervical Disc, no additional exposure or operative steps are required for screw or keel placement, eliminating the need for drilling or chiseling.

Pre-assembled implants

Mobi-C is delivered pre-assembled on a disposable PEEK cartridge. The cartridge assembles easily to the implant inserter, saving operative steps.

Bone sparing

Preserves bone surface.

Mobi-C’s mobile core is designed to create low stress at the implant to bone interface. Implantation of the Mobi-C requires no invasive keels or screws, no bone removal for keel preparation, and no additional operative steps for keel cutting.

Intact endplates, compared to endplates prepared for keels, provide a couple of benefits:

• Preserved surface for the implant, ideal for two-level implantation
• Intraoperative flexibility to optimise implant positioning
