    Abstract: A treatment process by which medical implants may be pre-settled before surgical implantation. Although explained herein within the context of a spinal implant, it will be appreciated that the same techniques and features of the present invention may be applied to any medical implant, particularly those having a core or other structure subject to material creep over time after implantation. This pre-settling process of the present invention may be done at any stage in the manufacturing of the implantable device after the spinal implant has been formed but before the device is surgically implanted. The pre-settling of the invention may be used for any type of core material that may have creep characteristics including, but not limited to, elastomers and textiles.

    Abstract: A series of disc prostheses are provided, the series including at least a first prosthesis and a second prosthesis, the first prosthesis differing in size and differing in one or more materials from which it is formed compared with the second prosthesis, the first and second prosthesis being of the same type. In this way a surgeon can select from the series the appropriate size so as to mimic the size of natural disc being replaced in a particular patient. As well as mimicking size, however, the invention also provides that the elastomer used in each different size has a different Shore hardness. This allows the intended stiffness and/or shock absorbing properties to be provided in each disc size and so provides for full mimicking of the natural disc in each size.
