Abstract

The invention concerns a distracting device for widening or extending a person's jaw by gradually moving two opposite bone parts of the jaw in relation to one another, whereby this device comprises two fixing elements which must each be fixed to one of said bone parts, whereby these fixing elements have means for fixing at least an expansion element which must extend between said fixing elements so as to connect the latter to each other, characterised in that said expansion element is made relatively rigid and has two parts which are hinge-mounted to each other.
