The M6-C artificial cervical disc offers an innovative option for artificial cervical disc replacement because of its unique design which is based on the motion of the natural disc.. This is among the most tested discs currently available with over 18,000 already implanted worldwide.

Engineered to replicate your own disc, the M6-C is the only artificial disc that incorporates an artificial nucleus and a woven fibre annulus. The M6-C artificial nucleus and annulus are designed to provide the same motion characteristics of a natural disc. A leading UK surgeon confirms: “The M6-C offers compression, translation, and controlled motion, similar to the actions possible with the natural disc. I love it.”

Together, the M6-C’s artificial nucleus and annulus provide compressive capabilities along with a controlled range of natural motion along each vertebra. This natural motion is designed to provide the freedom to move your neck naturally while minimising the stress to adjacent discs and other important spinal joints.

The M6-C Cervical Disc Replacement Device is produced in Silicon Valley by Spinal Kinetics Inc, and distributed throughout the UK by Lindare Medical Ltd, the Kent-based distributor of innovative spinal implants and bone grafting material.
