View Edit Delete	FLO-5PROV	a lower endplate comprising a proximal end, a distal end, a pair of fingers configured to slidably engage the tab, a proximal groove, and a distal groove;	95	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/18/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	FLO-5PROV	wherein the implant comprises a wedge shape selected such that, in the collapsed configuration, a first height between a top of the proximal end and a bottom of the proximal end is less than a second height between a top of the distal end and a bottom of the distal end.	110	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/18/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	FLO-5PROV	a knob having threads that engage threads of the inserter fork such that rotation of the knob about the inserter fork extends or retracts the inserter fork;	109	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/18/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	FLO-5PROV	a driver comprising a driver handle, a shaft, and a drive member, the drive member of the driver configured to engage the screw member of the implant such that rotation of the drive member rotates the screw member about its longitudinal axis to move the implant between a collapsed configuration and an expanded configuration;	108	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/18/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	FLO-5PROV	an inserter fork within the inserter body, the inserter fork comprising two prongs configured to engage a pair of recesses on the proximal wedge of the implant;	107	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/18/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	FLO-5PROV	an inserter body connected to a handle;	106	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/18/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	FLO-5PROV	an inserter comprising:	105	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/18/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	FLO-5PROV	an expandable intervertebral implant comprising a proximal end and a distal end and a screw member coupled to a proximal wedge and a distal wedge, the screw member, proximal wedge, and distal wedge sandwiched between an upper endplate and a lower endplate; and	104	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/18/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	FLO-5PROV	3.An expandable intervertebral implant system comprising:	103	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/18/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	FLO-5PROV	a second side of the implant lacks a tab and a pair of fingers.	102	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/18/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	FLO-5PROV	the tab and the pair of fingers is on a first side of the expandable intervertebral implant; and	101	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/18/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	FLO-5PROV	2.The expandable intervertebral implant of claim 1, wherein:	100	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/18/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	FLO-5PROV	wherein the implant comprises a wedge shape selected such that, in the collapsed configuration, a first height measured from the distal end of the upper endplate to the distal end of the lower endplate is greater than a second height measured from the proximal end of the upper endplate to the proximal end of the lower endplate.	99	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/18/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	FLO-5PROV	a screw member positioned between the upper endplate and the lower endplate, the screw member comprising a shank comprising threads that engage at least one of the proximal wedge and the distal wedge such that rotation of the screw member in a first direction about an axis of the shank draws at least one of the proximal wedge and the distal wedge toward each other to move the implant to an expanded configuration, and rotation of the screw member in a second direction about the shank separates at least one of the proximal wedge and the distal wedge from each other to move the implant toward a collapsed configuration; and	98	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/18/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	FLO-5PROV	a distal wedge positioned between the distal end of the upper endplate and the distal end of the lower endplate and comprising an upper tongue configured to slidably engage the distal groove of the upper endplate and a lower tongue configured to slidably engage the distal groove of the lower endplate;	97	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/18/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	FLO-5PROV	a proximal wedge positioned between the proximal end of the upper endplate and the proximal end of the lower endplate and comprising an upper tongue configured to slidably engage the proximal groove of the upper endplate and a lower tongue configured to slidably engage the proximal groove of the lower endplate;	96	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/18/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	FLO-5PROV	FIG. 4B illustrates an inserter 400 without an expandable intervertebral implant attached. FIG 4B illustrates more details of one embodiment of the inserter fork 430.	76	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/18/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	FLO-5PROV	an upper endplate comprising a proximal end, a distal end, a tab, a proximal groove, and a distal groove;	94	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/18/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	FLO-5PROV	Once the user confirms that the expandable intervertebral implant is properly positioned and expanded, the user can rotate the knob 450 to extend the inserter fork 430. Extending the inserter fork 430 causes the bias member 540 to move the protrusions 522 out of the recesses 524 and thereby detach the expandable intervertebral implant 100 from the inserter 400. If needed, the process can be reversed to retrieve an expandable intervertebral implant 100 using the inserter 400.	89	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/18/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	FLO-5PROV	Referring now to FIGs. 4A, 4B, and 5, examples of using the inserter 400 are described. With an expandable intervertebral implant 100 attached to the inserter 400, the knob 450 engages threads 550 of the inserter fork 430 such that the prongs 520 are retracted within the arm 414. In such a configuration, the legs 542 of the bias member 540 are biased against internal walls of the arm 414. A user can then take the inserter 400 by the handle 420 and position the expandable intervertebral implant between vertebral bodies for the procedure. Once, the expandable intervertebral implant 100 is positioned, a user can rotate the driver 440 which rotates the screw member 118 which expands the expandable intervertebral implant from a collapsed configuration to either a partially expanded configuration or a fully expanded configuration.	88	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/18/21, 12:00 AM
