2. PATIENT COMPLIANCE IS THE KEY ELEMENT TO THE SUCCESS OF THE REHABILITATION REGIMEN REGARDLESS OF THE TECHNIQUE USED, THE MANDIBLE MUST BE MOBILIZED FOR THE REHABILITATION REGIMEN TO SUCCEED

3. PROPERTIES OF THE IDEAL PASSIVE MOTION DEVICE FOR REHABILITATION OF TMJ FUNCTION: safe simple comfortable lightweight/portable gentle stretching precise patient control oral seal to prevent drooling no impressions necessary cost effective promote compliance with passive motion regimens

4. E-Z FLEX II passive motion device for TMJ, jaw muscles & surrounding tissues unique air cushioned pump mechanism designed to fulfill the ideal criteria to promote PATIENT COMPLIANCE developed by Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon known internationally for expertise & research on Temporomandibular Joint Disorders TM * * Produced by TMD LLC, Therapeutic Mobilization Devices

5. HIGH RATE OF PATIENT SATISFACTION AND COMPLIANCE WITH E-Z FLEX II DUE TO: safety low cost comfort control using unique air cushioning mechanism effectiveness ease of use decreased pain during/following use
