Information for the doctor / patient

Before the palex

®

 appliance is cemented into position, turn the spindle (screw) 

slightly 2 – 3 quarter turns in the direction of the arrow to test the function. 
Then turn back to the original position.
Turn the palex

®

 screw only in the direction of the arrow. Opening and closing 

the screw several times during the treatment can cause its malfunction. The 
finished palex

®

 appliance is cemented into position in the usual manner. Please 

observe the instructions from the cement manufacturer.
Following this, the screw is turned four times by 90° using the blue  
safety key (REF 611-120-00) for this purpose. One full 360° turn of the  
spindle = 0.8  mm expansion. 
The patient should turn the screw two times by 90° both in the morning and 
evening (according to your in structions) until the desired expansion is achieved.

#

Important:

 Use only the blue safety key supplied, as this cannot accidentally 

be swallowed.
Regular visits are recommended to monitor progress.
The palex

®

 appliance is secured against unwanted turning-back, after the 

desired degree of expansion is achieved, by fitting a ligature or blocking 
with acrylic. For stabilization the appliance should remain in the mouth for 
approximately 2 – 3 months.
A retainer should be worn following removal of the palex

®

 appliance.

 The product should not be used, if there is a known allergic reaction  
to one or more of the material components.
