Abstract

The invention provides a temporomandibular joint training implement. The temporomandibular joint training implement comprises a supporting part and a body part, wherein the supporting part comprises two half ring-shaped forked plates which conform to an upper and lower dental arches respectively, two connecting arms and two supporting arms, the middle parts of the forked plates are provided with forked plate handles respectively, one ends of the forked plate handles are connected to the edges of the excircles of the forked plates, the other ends of the forked plate handles are connected to the front ends of the connecting arms through front connecting pins respectively in a hinged mode, the rear ends of the connecting arms are connected to the front ends of the supporting arms through rear connecting pins respectively in a hinged mode, and the body part comprises a shell body, a sliding sleeve, a spring, a pressure adjusting nut, a pressure adjusting screw rod and a position adjusting nut. The temporomandibular joint training implement has the advantages that hand gripping or pressing power does not needed, it is only need to adjust a corresponding opening distance and a corresponding opening elastic force, through the automatic bite force of the patient, the upper and lower jaws are closed, the spring force of the spring is used for assisting the patient to open the mouth, repeated upper and lower movements of the lower jaw are achieved, and the patient is relaxed and comfortable.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of medical devices, in particular to a temporomandibular joint trainer. Background technique [0002] Research has shown that exercise is beneficial in treating disorders of the jaw joint. Exercise is necessary to prevent cartilage deterioration, the soft tissue delamination of the jaw joint surface. In many cases, exercise can stimulate joint healing and reduce joint pain and swelling. By stretching and relaxing the jaw muscles, progressive exercises can help patients with muscular pain improve mouth opening. Passive exercise can also enhance the benefits of the treatment plan, especially with subsequent training. Therefore, passive mouth training has a good effect on patients with jaw joint disorders or for physical therapy of the jaw after surgery. [0003] Patent application number: 201210365105.8 discloses an adjustable opening trainer, which belongs to the field of medical auxiliary equipment, including two ...
