Jasper Jumper and Gentle Jumper
As an adjunct to fixed appliance therapy, the Jasper Jumper and the Gentle Jumper present an opportunity to minimize extractions and to reduce or eliminate headgear. When activated 4 mm, the Jasper Jumper will exert 360 grams of force. By comparison, at the same amount of deflection, the Gentle Jumper exerts 75 grams of force, which is better suited to mixed dentition cases. Now the clinician can choose between two force levels for an even greater range of clinical applications. Both the Jasper Jumper and the Gentle Jumper provide provide the following:
They are fixed so patient cooperation is assured
They are safe. No extra-oral traction is involved
They are cosmetic
They can be used for Class II or Class III corrections and can apply different forces on each side of the jaw for cross bites.
