Tooth-grinding-portion tongue-biting-prevention device

Abstract

The invention discloses a tooth-grinding-portion tongue-biting-prevention device composed of a fixed cap, a tooth plug and a locking device. The tooth-grinding-portion tongue-biting-prevention device is designed according to the tongue-biting conditions of an epilepsy and psychiatric patient.

The tooth plug is designed according to the tooth shape of a human body, a plug body is partially placed into an oral cavity of the patient, and the situation that during onset of illness, the epilepsy and psychiatric patient bites a tongue is effectively prevented. Additionally, the tooth plug is connected with the locking device, a metal wire only reserves the length from the plug body to the locking device, and the situation that the plug body is spit out from the oral cavity by the patient is well avoided. The structure is simple, operation is easy, the workload of medical personnel is reduced, the work efficiency is improved, and the safety of the patient is better guaranteed.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to the field of medical devices, in particular to a tongue biting prevention device for molars. Background technique: [0002] Both epilepsy and mental patients may have tongue biting behavior. Epilepsy is a neurological disease with intermittent onset. Epilepsy patients sometimes involuntarily bite their tongues when they have an attack. Protect the tongue as soon as possible before the attack or in the early stage of the attack. At present, tongue depressors, sterile towels or tooth pads are usually used to prevent patients from biting their tongues to separate the upper and lower teeth of the patient, which may easily cause discomfort to the patient and affect the anti-tongue effect; in addition, Mental patients with suicidal tendencies resist subjectively. When a spatula or tooth pad is placed in their mouth, the patient will forcefully spit out the spatula or tooth pad. During the struggle, the tooth pad will fall off, or th...

[0002] Both epilepsy and mental patients may have tongue biting behavior. Epilepsy is a neurological disease with intermittent onset. Epilepsy patients sometimes involuntarily bite their tongues when they have an attack. Protect the tongue as soon as possible before the attack or in the early stage of the attack. At present, tongue depressors, sterile towels or tooth pads are usually used to prevent patients from biting their tongues to separate the upper and lower teeth of the patient, which may easily cause discomfort to the patient and affect the anti-tongue effect; in addition, Mental patients with suicidal tendencies resist subjectively. When a spatula or tooth pad is placed in their mouth, the patient will forcefully spit out the spatula or tooth pad. During the struggle, the tooth pad will fall off, or the tooth pad will be bitten. Not only does it fail to prevent tongue biting, the bitten fragments remain in the patient's mouth, and it is easy to scratch the patient's mouth. Special requirements for nursing epilepsy and mental patients, thus delaying the smooth progress of diagnosis and treatment, and bringing great difficulty to medical staff
