Individualized mouth containing device for radiotherapy and manufacturing method thereof

Abstract

The invention provides an individualized mouth containing device for radiotherapy and a manufacturing method thereof. The device comprises an oral stent and silicon rubber, the oral stent comprises supporting columns, upper dental arch grooves, a lower dental arch groove, a tongue depressor, a ventilation channel and a handle. The oral stent is matched with the oral cavity in size and shape duringmouth opening, the supporting columns are arranged at the two sides of the oral stent, and the upper dental arch grooves and the lower dental arch groove are formed in the upper and lower portions ofthe supporting columns respectively; the tongue depressor connected with the lower dental arch groove is arranged on the rear end of the lower dental arch groove, the ventilation channel is formed between the supporting columns at the two sides, and the handle which is connected with the lower dental arch groove is further arranged between the supporting columns at the two sides; the silicon rubber wraps the upper dental arch grooves, the lower dental arch groove and the tongue depressor; individualized manufacturing is achieved through the oral stent and the silicon rubber, the fixing precision is improved at the same time, a patient bites and wears the device conveniently, the manufacturing method is simple, and clinical popularization is facilitated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of medical equipment, in particular to an individualized mouthpiece for radiotherapy and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] Radiation therapy is one of the important treatment methods for malignant tumors of the head and neck. With the continuous development of radiation therapy equipment and technology, radiation therapy has entered the era of "precise positioning, precise planning, and precise positioning". Precise positioning is an important part of the entire radiotherapy process. In order to minimize the irradiation of normal tissues while irradiating the tumor, it is necessary to control the movement of the patient with absolute precision. The positioning of radiotherapy needs to be accurate to the millimeter every day. The ideal position fixation device should achieve the following goals: 1. It must make the patient feel comfortable and safe; 2. The fixation device must ensu...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, the above technology still has the following problems: it is not convenient to make and wear individualized mouthpieces for radiotherapy, and the positioning error is not easy to measure, the design of oral brackets needs to be improved, and the fixing accuracy of individualized mouthpieces still needs to be improved
