Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of dental orthodontics, and in particular to an accessory-free orthodontic brace and a brace base. Background Art

[0002] As people's quality of life continues to improve, people's requirements for beauty are getting higher and higher. The health, neatness and beauty of teeth have also become everyone's concern. In order to have healthy and beautiful teeth, the market currently often uses bracketless invisible orthodontic treatment. In the relevant technology, accessories are used to complete the correction process, such as Figure 1 As shown, specifically, resin attachments are pasted on the tooth surface, and then braces are worn. The resin attachments cooperate with the braces to achieve tooth retention and movement. In actual clinical use, it is relatively cumbersome to complete the operation of pasting attachments on the teeth. It is necessary to consider the shape and occlusion of each tooth to design and paste attachments of different shapes. The clinical operation time is relatively long. The attachments pasted on the teeth sometimes fall off, and it is necessary to see a doctor again for diagnosis and treatment. In addition, there will be bulges on the teeth after the attachments are pasted, which is not beautiful. The bulges will also rub against the intraoral mucosa and affect the patient's comfort. Therefore, it is necessary for the inventor to design a new accessory-free orthodontic braces and braces base to overcome the above problems. Summary of the invention

[0027] Embodiment 1:

[0028] like Figures 2 to 5As shown, an accessory-free orthodontic brace comprises a brace body 1, and a plurality of accommodating cavities 2 arranged on the brace body 1 and capable of accommodating a single tooth, at least one of the accommodating cavities 2 corresponding to the outer surface of the brace body 1 is provided with a depression 3 for applying force, and the depression 3 is located on at least one side of the labial side, lingual side, mesial side, and distal side of the tooth. Based on the condition of the patient's teeth, there may be two depressions 3 for applying force on the brace corresponding to one tooth. If the patient's tooth condition is relatively complicated, there may be 3-4 depressions 3 for applying force on the brace corresponding to one tooth; there is a gap 4 between the accommodating cavity 2 and the tooth, and the gap 4 is located on the opposite side of the depression 3, and this gap 4 is for allowing the tooth to have space to move; based on the patient's tooth condition, multiple sets of braces will be designed to complete the entire correction process, and the position of the depression 3 and the width of the gap 4 on each set of braces will vary according to the correction plan, and can be adjusted again according to the patient's tooth condition at each follow-up visit.

[0029] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, in actual operation, the patient's teeth are photographed to form an image, and based on the image modeling, the tooth deviation direction is analyzed and calculated from each tooth model to obtain the direction and distance that need to be corrected, so as to confirm the position of the depression 3 for applying force on the corresponding brace body 1, which is generally on at least one side of the labial side, lingual side, mesial side, and distal side of the tooth. Therefore, the depression 3 on the surface of the brace body 1 is set at the corresponding position based on the analysis result, and is also located in the opposite direction of the movement direction that needs to be corrected. There is a gap 4 between the brace body 1 and the tooth, and this gap 4 is also calculated based on the distance that the tooth needs to move. The brace body 1 on the side with the depression 3 fits with the tooth, and the tooth is moved in the direction of the gap 4 by applying force at the depression 3, thereby completing the correction process. The depression 3 here achieves the fit of the fixed brace body 1 with the tooth, and can also move the tooth in the desired direction, and can also control the movement more accurately, without affecting the patient's aesthetics. The depression 3 here can also be designed as a convexity.

[0030] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the depth of the depression 3 on the force-applying surface of the depression 3 is 0.1mm-3.0mm, and the width of the gap 4 is 0.1mm-3.0mm. The specific depth of the depression 3 and the width of the gap 4 are set according to the amount and direction of correction required for each tooth of the patient. The depth of the depression 3 is consistent with the size of the gap 4 to achieve precise movement and more comfortable wearing.

[0031] The force-applying surface of the depression 3 is elliptical or rectangular. A depression 3 of a suitable shape is selected based on the tooth position in each part. Any shape of depression 3 can be used clinically, but an elliptical or rectangular shape is preferred. A force-applying surface of a regular shape is easier to calculate and controllable in terms of the force direction, and has a better correction effect.

[0032] The braces body 1 and the accommodating cavity 2 are integrally formed, and the braces body 1 and the recess 3 are integrally formed, and the integral forming is hot pressing integral forming or 3D integral forming; hot pressing integral forming and 3D integral forming can be precisely customized based on the patient's teeth, which improves the effect of tooth correction, reduces discomfort and wear, and is more comfortable to wear; braces are generally made of transparent materials, which have a more beautiful appearance, are almost invisible when worn, and are more beautiful.

[0033] like Figure 5 As shown, a braces base is used for the above-mentioned accessory-free orthodontic braces formed in one piece by hot pressing, comprising a base body 5 and a tooth model arranged on the base body 5, the accessory-free orthodontic braces are adapted to the tooth model, and the tooth model is wrapped in the braces and is therefore not shown in the figure. Based on the patient's dental condition, the accessory-free orthodontic braces and the tooth model are personalized and adapted; the base body 5 and the tooth model are 3D-integrated, and a braces base with a tooth model is manufactured by 3D-integrated molding, and the raw material of the orthodontic diaphragm is formed on the braces base by hot pressing into an accessory-free orthodontic device to obtain the required braces; or the accessory-free orthodontic braces are directly printed in one piece by 3D printing. There are two ways to form the depression 3 on the corresponding braces. One is to design the depression 3 and gap 4 with corresponding force points on the tooth model based on the tooth condition, and form the corresponding depression by hot pressing the membrane raw material, so as to obtain accessory-free orthodontic braces that can be worn by patients through this film pressing method; the other is to directly generate a three-dimensional model of the finished braces with the depression 3 force points, and print it out directly through 3D printing.

[0034] The above description is only the preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. For those skilled in the art, the present application may have various modifications and variations. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
