Glidewell Laboratories Debuts aveoTSD(R) Health Professional Patient Sizing Kit
Glidewell Dental Lab Announces Debut of aveoTSD Health Professional Patient Sizing Kit to Ensure Adequate Fit From the Start
Newport Beach, CA (PRWEB) September 7, 2010
Glidewell Laboratories (http://www. glidewelldental. com), industry-leading provider of dental lab products and services, announced today the debut of the aveoTSD (http://www. glidewelldental. com/dentist/services/removables-aveo-tsd. aspx) Health Professional Patient Sizing Kit.
This kit, helpful for in-office patient sizing of the aveoTSD, contains one small, one medium and one large aveoTSD (Tongue Stabilization Device); two Uni-Spacers, sized 4 mm and 7 mm, which can clip on to the aveoTSD for extra titration; and one autoclavable tray.
The aveoTSD, manufactured by Innovative Health Technologies and designed by Dental Sleep Medicine specialist Dr. Chris Robertson, is an anti-snoring aid that is worn on the tongue during sleep. It works by holding the tongue forward using gentle suction and is unique because, unlike other anti-snoring devices, it requires no impressions, no adjustments, no specialist fitting and has no moving parts.
Clinical case studies have shown that the medium aveoTSD fits 95 percent of patients. However, for the precise health professional who wants to ensure an adequate fit from the start, the aveoTSD Patient Sizing Kit allows the dentist or medical physician to try each size device on the patient to check for comfort and fit. For patients who need extra titration due to a long tongue, the 4 mm or 7 mm Uni-Spacer can be used to provide a more restful night’s sleep. After trying in each piece, place items back into the tray and autoclave, then reuse the kit minutes later.
Priced individually, the pieces included in the aveoTSD Health Professional Patient Sizing Kit total up to $489. But when purchased as a kit, dentists and medical physicians will pay just $269.
Pre-order the aveoTSD Patient Sizing Kit by calling 800-334-1979. The first orders will be shipped beginning September 24, 2010. For more information, visit getaveo. com (http://www. getaveo. com).
