Oral medical aid

Abstract

The invention relates to an oral medical aid. The oral medical aid is suitable for covering an oral region of a patient and comprises a shielding body. At least one part of the shielding body is transparent, an internal space is defined, the shielding body comprises a suction connecting part and an operation part, the suction connecting part and the operation part are oppositely arranged, and the operation part comprises at least one opening. The suction connecting part is connected with a medical suction device so as to suck objects in the internal space when the shielding body covers the oral region of the patient. The invention also relates to the oral medical aid comprising a closed end which is used for preventing spatters from the oral region from diffusing out of the shield body. Therefore, the spatters can be reduced or prevented from being scattered into surrounding air when the patient opens the mouth.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an oral medical aid, in particular to an oral medical aid that can cover the user's mouth area and reduce or avoid the spread of droplets. Background technique [0002] When people speak and breathe, they will produce droplets. When performing oral examination or treatment during the medical process, patients need to open their mouths wide, and a large amount of droplets will be produced at this time. Although medical personnel can wear masks and face shields to reduce the risk of bacterial and viral infection, the droplets will still splash and float for several meters and attach to objects in the medical environment, resulting in possible contact and airborne infection. [0003] Among them, high-speed molars, ultrasonic scaling machines, three-purpose spray guns and other appliances used in dental treatment will generate a large amount of aerosol during treatment, causing the liquid that entrains saliva and removes ol...

Problems solved by technology

Although medical personnel can wear masks and face shields to reduce the risk of bacterial and viral infection, the droplets will still splash and float for several meters and attach to objects in the medical environment, resulting in possible contact and airborne infection

[0003] Among them, high-speed molars, ultrasonic scaling machines, three-purpose spray guns and other appliances used in dental treatment will generate a large amount of aerosol during treatment, causing the liquid that entrains saliva and removes old filling toxins to splash into the air. If the patient's body contains pathogens that can be transmitted through droplets or contact, it will greatly increase the infection risk of medical personnel and other personnel in the same space, and the inhalation of toxins by medical personnel or patients will even affect their health

[0004] However, in terms of epidemic prevention measures in oral-related medical treatment, most of the medical personnel themselves wear heavy protective clothing or multi-layer protective equipment (goggles, multi-layer masks, etc.), frequently clean various tools and environments, or use expensive equipment There is no corresponding equipment to reduce or prevent droplets and aerosol from overflowing from the patient's mouth at low cost during the treatment period, and it is impossible to further prevent droplets from floating far away and adhering to objects in the environment, resulting in contact or Airborne infection and / or inhalation of toxins by medical personnel and patients

[0005] Even if attempts have been made to re-develop saliva suction devices, such new devices are often bulky and / or expensive, preventing rapid adoption and achieving the desired anti-epidemic effect; retrofitting existing suction devices with available hardware parts would be difficult. Encountered many problems such as not being able to conform to the mouth shape, poor material and / or blocking and interfering with medical sight
