TL-HEX is not simply a product. In the context of a deformity correction with a device such TL-HEX, the outcome of the treatment may also be influenced by the patient commitment and adherence to the post-operative protocol. Therefore, as we are focused on supporting you to gain a better patient outcome, a brand new set of patient support materials has been developed, for both pre- and post-surgery phases.
