Bite Block System

Bite Block System.

The Bite Block System is a stand alone patient head immobilizer system that needs no fixing to a treatment table and can be moved from room to room.  The aluminum base plate has protruding pins which fit into the holes of the attached plastic bottom of six different size head-neck supports, thus, locating it in a fixed position every time it is used.  In some treatment set-ups it may be necessary to angle the head to the right or left.  For these treatments, place the horizontal adjustable base plate on the base plate and lock in position with two thumb screws.  The head-neck supports also fit onto protruding pins located on the horizontal adjustable base plate or the pediatric adjustable base plate.

A three lock system allows for easy adjustment and reproducibility.  Vertical and horizontal adjustment is accomplished using 15 cm scales and two locking knobs.  The bite block tray angle is adjustable using an 180O scale and is locked with a knob.

An easy to remove individualized bite tray uses dental impression material.  The impression procedure takes ten minutes using Caulk Reprosil® Impression Material (Item 266-100), which must be ordered separately.

A fast set-up can be accomplished by using the Nasal or Bridge Trays.  Rest the patient’s head in the correct head-neck support, adjust the head, lower the nasal or bridge tray and lock to the desired position.
