Problems solved by technology

However, there is no equipment specially used for mouth opening training at present. Patients usually use their thumb and index finger to forcefully stretch the upper and lower anterior teeth to practice, which is often difficult for patients to persist; Two boards allow patients to bite for training. The disadvantage is that the spring is too elastic, and some patients cannot bite; the pressure cannot be adjusted, and training cannot be done step by step; the trainer does not conform to the physiological structure of the oral cavity, and it is uncomfortable to use

Embodiment Construction

[0017] As shown in the figure, this embodiment consists of two parts, one part is a hand-held pressure device, which is roughly elliptical in shape, and it includes a pressure device seat 1, a pressure device cover 2, a bellows type water tank 3, a regulator 4, and a knob 5 and fixing screws. Another part is the open-closer that puts into oral cavity, and shape is roughly flat taper, and it comprises upper bite plate 6, lower bite plate 7, bellows type water bladder 3, jump ring 8. Connect with the plastic hose 9 between the hand-held presser and the open-closer, and the two ends of the plastic hose are provided with threaded sheaths 10 . The material that this example adopts is except that screw, jump ring 8 and thread sheath 10 are metal materials, and all the other are all made of plastics. Bellows type water bladder 3 and plastic hose 9 are filled with water II.

[0018] see figure 2 , 3 , 6, 7, 8 The shape of the hand-held pressure device is basically oval, and the pr...

Abstract

A training appliance for passively opening oral cavity in order to treat the temporomandibular joint disease is composed of a hand-held pressure generator and an open-closing unit, which are connected via flexible plastic tube. Said pressure generator consists of base and cover to form a cavity, bellows-type water bag in said cavity, and regulator with regulating knob. Said opening-closing unit comprises upper and lower bite plates to form a cavity, and a bellows-type water bag in said cavity.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a medical device, in particular to a passive mouth opening trainer. It is suitable for temporomandibular joint diseases, such as mouth snapping, joint trauma surgery, joint area pain, chewing pain, small mouth opening, and long-term fixation surgery. Background technique [0002] Oral temporomandibular joint disorder, the main reason is the displacement of the articular disc, causing limited mouth opening. The incidence rate of the disease in my country is 18-27%. With the quickening of the pace of life, the incidence rate of the disease is still on the rise. Through passive mouth opening training, the degree of mouth opening can be improved and the purpose of healing can be achieved. However, there is no equipment specially used for mouth opening training at present. Patients usually use their thumb and index finger to forcefully stretch the upper and lower anterior teeth to practice, which is often difficult for patients to...
