Rapid Palatel Expander Philosophy One ®
Revolution in RPE appliances
The application of the Philosophy 1 screw to tearing the palatal suture, unlike the solutions used so far, shapes the entire facial skeleton, acting mainly orthopedically, and not tooth-like. This is possible thanks to the innovative screw construction, created and patented by the Italian dental technician Marco Valle.
By turning the arms of the Hyrax screw, we managed to get rid of the massive shank of the threaded stem and the downdraft. Minimized transversal dimensions of the bolt give the possibility of placing it high on the palate, at the height of the root tips (and sometimes even higher), at the point of the seam resistance.
Philosophy 1 is protected by several international patents.
Numerous publications of prominent doctors published in the last 30 years are sufficient to evaluate this type of orthodontic appliance scientifically.
The advantages of the appliance
• can be applied to any type of palate.
• easy to maintain oral hygiene.
• no mucosal load due to moving the arms of the device sagittally parallel to the palate.
• high placement of the screw causes that during swallowing the tongue does not touch the screw, and there are no pressure sores on the tongue.
• the whole screw is made of biocompatible steel.
• as the only camera on the market, it can be reactivated in the office by replacing the stem and sockets without re-creating an appliance,
up to 13 mm expansion.
• remains stable after completion of expansion, no need to lock the screw for retention period.
• the screw can be used both when creating the Hassa camera (acrylic surfaces) and also soldering to the rings.
• the device can be soldered only to rings for molars, which gives the possibility of establishing a permanent apparatus already in the final period of expansion.
• anti-rotation system that prevents the screw from being twisted.
• activation system with a clear signal informing about the correct "click" activation, which the patient is sure of.
• activation key with an ergonomic and elongated shape, for safe and reliable activation.
• the size of the screw does not change when you unscrew the camera.
• the direction of activation applied by laser technique.
The smallest, the most comfortable and innovative.
