Question
where do i wear the knee strap for Oshgood Slawgers diseasethksbrenda

Answer

What type of knee support might help?

There are a number of different supports and braces on the market that may help with Osgood Schlatters disease.

A simple neoprene support will provide compression and support to the knee in general and retain the bodies natural heat. A warm tendon will work much better than a cold one.

A patella tendon strap wraps around just below the knee, to put direct pressure on the patella tendon to help reduce the strain on the tibial tuberosity.

Question
I am interested in purchasing the Portable Dental Delivery Unit with S.E.Suction ProCare II. i see there is a 110v and 220v. whats the diference. i want to use it for a remote clinic in the north west of Botswana. Also can you ship to me at my present location?

Answer

Dear Joel:

There is no difference in features between the 110V and 220V models.   Your choice should depend on the electrical voltage available in your area.  We typically ship to an international airport in your city of choice and then you would have to make arrangements for pick from there.  We do require that all international shipments are pre-paid in-full via bank wire transfer.   If you would like to proceed, please respond to this email.
