Narval™ CC - The First MRD of Its Kind


Brought to you by Great Lakes Orthodontics in partnership with ResMed

Narval™ CC is the first and only CAD/CAM custom-made mandibular
repositioning device (MRD) on the market. Narval CC is the ultimate MRD
solution for patients with mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea (OSA),
as well as those who are unable to comply with continuous positive airway
pressure (CPAP) treatment. It is also a first line treatment for snoring in
the absence of OSA.

Unique CAD/CAM technology ensures a precise fit
and comfortable retention.


  Computer-aided design (CAD) enables a high degree of customization  
    to suit the complex dental anatomy of individual patients

•  Computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) through selective laser sintering
    guarantees a consistently accurate MRD

  Made of highly resilient and durable biocompatible polymer material;
    Narval CC is metal-free, flexible, and lightweight.

•  Easy to titrate; highly adjustable (15mm protrusive range-1mm
    increments)

  Easy to reorder with CAD/CAM reproduction

Klearway® Appliance


Backed by extensive research, this appliance offers ultimate control. Adjusts in increments of 0.25mm for gradual jaw positioning, featuring a snap lock expansion screw that prevents unwanted deactivation. Fabricated of comfortable, thermoactive acrylic, the Klearway® is easy to insert, conforms securely to teeth and permits lateral movement. Provides full occlusal coverage of both arches. Does not encroach on tongue space. This appliance is suitable for most patients including those who brux, have missing or complicated dentitions, some upper edentulous cases, extensive bridgework and/or short clinical crowns.

 

NAPA Appliance


In clinical use since 1983, this proven treatment was developed by Dr. Peter T. George. The NAPA uses eight clasps and is constructed of hard acrylic to provide excellent retention. Comfortable to wear, the NAPA fits very much like a standard orthodontic appliance. An available option is the thermal active material Variflex™ (clasping optional). This variation will be trimmed scalloped to the gingival margin and is ideal for patients with sensitive teeth, crowns, bridgework, or missing dentitions. Both versions of the NAPA appliance are available with the standard breathing beak or beakless option.

 

 

Elastomeric Appliance


Made of soft custom-injected silicone, this appliance offers optimum patient comfort and compliance. No clasps or wires to adjust. Proven effective by the University of Kentucky Medical Center Sleep Apnea Laboratory. Recommended for partial edentulous patients and non-bruxers.

 


 

Herbst® Sleep Appliance


The Herbst Appliance has been proven effective for chronic snoring and mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea sufferers. This appliance allows patients some lateral and vertical movement without disengaging the appliance. Also, if the initial position does not provide anticipated relief, the mandible can easily be moved forward in small increments by using advancement shims, or with our telescopic hardware advanced up to 5mm. This appliance can be made of hard acrylic, thermoactive resin (Variflex™), or soft EVA material.

Indications for use - Herbst®:

  • Full complement of teeth
  • Longer tooth dentitions
  • Wide upper arch
  • Gaggers
  • Deviations
  • Minimal inter-incisal opening
  • Maxillary tori

Indications for use - Telescopic Herbst:
Same as Herbst indications above, and the following -

  • Extensive crown and bridge
  • Short clinical crowns
  • Malocclusions
     

Great Lakes is pleased to announce that the Telescopic Herbst* Sleep Appliance has been approved by Medicare's Pricing, Data Analysis and Coding Contractor (PDAC) for reimbursement. 

The Code is E0486
