Benefits of technology

This technology helps reduce swallowing through an improved way for patients with breathing problems due to excessive saltiness during their treatment process. It uses special shapes made of materials like springs instead of traditional metal plates to allow airflow while keeping them closed tightly around themselves. Additionally, there are guiding mechanisms on top to help remove any residue left behind after each use. Overall, this innovation makes dentistry more effective at reducing discomfort caused by acid reflux disease (AR).

Problems solved by technology

The technical problem addressed in this patented text relates to improving dentistry practices during radiation therapies such as orthodontic treatment that involve closing off certain parts of the teeth called temporoarsusceptive (TSO) jaw bone. This issue arises because current methods require patients' own hands to open their mouth while carrying out these treatments, making them hard to handle without disrupting other areas around they.

Abstract

The invention discloses a mouth gag for rehabilitation exercise after oral cancer radiotherapy. The mouth gag structurally comprises a base, a main body and a movable groove; the upper end of the base is provided with the main body, the main body is U-shaped, and the movable groove is located in the inner side of the main body; the main body comprises a movable device, a sliding groove and a sliding block; the movable device comprises a swing block, a rubber block, a rotating shaft, a friction block and a reset spring; the swing block comprises an adsorption groove, a rubber ring, a spring plate, an elastic piece and a vent hole; the adsorption groove comprises a cover plate, a suction head and a liquid collection box; and the liquid collection box comprises a liquid inlet, a liquid baffle, a discharging opening and a cleaning opening. The reset spring is utilized to reduce the extrusion pressure on the spring plate, the elastic piece can push the spring plate to drive the rubber ring to open, and the rubber ring can suck air outwards through the vent hole, so that saliva in the oral cavity is sucked into an adsorption groove, and the patient can be assisted in cleaning the saliva generated in the oral cavity during exercise.
