Abstract:
The present invention provides a next generation, closed profile, total disc replacement device with mechanical features designed to sustain, restrain and guide the larger motions required to preserve normal mechanical motion, while at the same time, providing a flexion component to guide and restrain the finer motions reached at the extremes of the mechanical motion preservation components.

Claim (Index 2):
The device according to  claim 1  wherein said first joint and said second joint each comprises a nucleus retention mechanism providing defined, and mechanically constrained, degrees of motion of said top endplate about the top dome portion of said nucleus, and said bottom endplate in relation to the bottom foot portion of said nucleus such that each said mechanism sustains, restrains, constrains, stabilizes, and/or guides the larger motions required to preserve normal mechanical motion of a spinal joint, while at the same time, said nucleus provides a flexion component to guide and restrain/constrain the finer motions reached at the extremes set by the mechanical motion preservation components.
