Suggestions for use of the cheek spreader:

• The selection of the right size should be guided by the distance between the corners of the mouth, with the mouth in a relaxed position (lips closed or slightly open).
• The diameter of the inner ring should be approximately 2 cm wider than the total distance between the corners of the mouth. Take into account the following guidelines:
• Junior or child size: Distance of the corners ≈ 4,5 cm
• Small size: Distance of the corners ≈ 6 cm
• Regular size: Distance of the corners ≈ 7 cm
• The size (R for medium, S for small and J for child) is indicated on the packaging as well as on the tab on the left side of the OptraGate.
• To ensure optimal function, we recommend the largest possible size for the best fit in the patient's mouth.
