The CHARITÉ® Artificial Disc offers a treatment option with a device that preserves some motion, avoids pain at the donor site and has demonstrated a shorter recovery time compared to fusion. The CHARITÉ Artificial Disc is comprised of cobalt chromium endplates coated with titanium calcium phosphate and an ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) sliding core. Preclinical testing indicates that the unique mobile-core design incorporates a floating center of rotation (FCOR), enabling independent translation and rotation, key components of physiologic motion.
