Abstract

The invention provides a tongue protection device used for assisting in intraoral operation. The tongue protection device is composed of a tongue retractor component and a bite block component, wherein the bite block component is in a wedge shape, the tongue retractor component is inserted into a lateral groove in the bite block component through a connection rod so as to achieve connection between the tongue retractor component and the bite block component. The device is used for preventing soft tongue tissue from being injured by devices in the oral examination / treatment process or when a patient cannot control the tongue of the patient or the tongue movement affects oral examination / treatment for whatever reasons. The bite block component is inserted into the portion between upper backteeth and lower backteeth on the side opposite to the oral operation side, a tongue stopping part of the tongue retractor component make the tongue separated from the backteeth on the operation side from the lateral side when the tongue retractor is in place, the tongue can be separated from the operation side, and the tongue is isolated from the backteeth on the operation side. By means of the tongue protection device, a good vision can be provided for backteeth checking and treatment, and the tongue is prevented from being injured.

Description
