Chronic pain of the back, neck, shoulders, arms, and hands affects millions of people worldwide due to spinal disc degeneration. Weakness, tingling, or numbness may also accompany this condition. The M6-C™ and M6-L™ artificial discs offer a non-fusion solution for degeneration of the cervical and lumbar discs. These devices are artificial discs that imitate the structure and movement of a natural disc, making them the preferred option over spinal fusion (ACDF). Over 100,000 M6-C and M6-L disc devices have been implanted worldwide, and their unique design promotes natural kinematics for patients.
Neck and arm pain is a serious issue for millions of people worldwide, and cervical disc degeneration is often the root cause. Injuries, poor posture, and aging can all lead to this condition, which can cause ruptured, flattened, or thinning discs, as well as bone spurs. Artificial disc solutions like the M6-C can offer relief and a non-fusion alternative to traditional treatments.

Artificial disc solutions like the M6-L can offer a natural alternative to traditional treatments, making them a viable option for patients seeking relief.
Learn MoreFor patients requiring artificial disc replacement, the M6 discs offer an innovative next-generation solution. Unlike spinal fusion, the M6 discs are designed to mimic the natural structure and movement of the spine in all directions, including backward and forward, side to side, up and down, and left and right rotation. These unique products are the only discs with a shock-absorbing nucleus and fiber annulus that work together to replicate the natural disc’s controlled range of movement and cushioning effect. This design allows the spine to move naturally, potentially reducing stress on adjacent discs and other vertebral structures. Experience the benefits of the M6 artificial discs and regain your mobility.
The M6-C artificial cervical disc is designed to maintain the natural behavior of a functional spinal unit by replicating the biomechanical characteristics of the native disc. The M6-C disc has established a robust clinical history with over 70,000 devices implanted in over 20 countries.
