CHARITÉ® Artificial Disc
The CHARITÉ® Artificial Disc is made of cobalt chromium endplates coated with titanium calcium phosphate and an ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene sliding core. It's an alternative treatment option to spinal fusion which preserves some motion and avoids pain at the donor site.
Preclinical testing indicates that the unique mobile-core design incorporates a floating center of rotation, enabling independent translation and rotation, which are key components of motion.
