Tongue tie corrective forceps

Abstract

The invention discloses a pair of tongue frenulum correction operating forceps which enables the mouth floor to be fully exposed and has good tongue fixing effect. The pair of tongue frenulum correction operating forceps comprises forceps handles composed of shaft rods, connecting rods, handle rods and handle rings and left and right foliated forceps plates arranged in parallel, wherein a forceps joint for fixing a separation distance of two shaft rods is connected between two shaft rods in a striding mode, and two shaft rods respectively form a rotation pair with the forceps joint. The pair of tongue frenulum correction operating forceps adopts a forceps handle structure designed according to an ergonomic principle and conforming to the maxillary shape and in a shape of a multi-section curved arc, and when the operating forceps is adopted to perform an infant operation, safe and comfortable holding of a doctor is facilitated, two sides of the tongue of an infant can be turned upward to be rolled up and fixed, and spontaneous activities are limited. In addition, due to the fact that the shaft rod length and included angles formed by the shaft rods and the connecting rods are reasonably designed, the whole tongue tissue of the infant can be lifted up to enable mouth floor to be fully exposed during operation, the surgical operation is facilitated, safe and smooth operation performing is ensured, and adequate guarantee is provided for complete unhitching of a too short frenulum.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a medical device, in particular to a tongue tie correction surgical forceps. Background technique [0002] Typically, tongue tie correction is performed on young children aged 1-2 years before they learn to speak. The operation is generally performed under local anesthesia. First, the upper end of the frenulum on the abdomen of the tongue is clamped vertically with a vascular forceps and lifted upwards. Then, a small blade or scissors is used to cut from the front end of the frenulum to its root, and then the incision is made. Longitudinal alignment stitching. [0003] The full exposure of the abdomen of the tongue and the good fixation of the tongue body in this operation are important factors for the smoothness and success of the operation, but the compliance and self-control of children aged 1-2 are relatively poor, and the tongue often appears involuntarily during the operation. Activities, such as tongue tip or tongue bo...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] The full exposure of the abdomen of the tongue and the good fixation of the tongue body in this operation are important factors for the smoothness and success of the operation, but the compliance and self-control of children aged 1-2 are relatively poor, and the tongue often appears involuntarily during the operation. Movements, such as tongue tip or tongue body moving up and down or back and forth, will greatly affect the smooth progress of the operation and increase the risk of accidental injury, bleeding, etc.

In the prior art, only the upper end of the frenulum is lifted up during the operation. On the one hand, this operation cannot fix the tongue well, and on the other hand, it cannot fully raise the two sides of the abdomen of the tongue. Lead to incomplete resection of the frenulum (especially for children with severe tongue tie), poor postoperative improvement, and even need for reoperation
