Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to an orthognathic surgery occlusal guide plate based on an invisible orthodontic device. Background Art
[0002] Severe dentofacial deformities often lead to malocclusion, disordered occlusion, masticatory dysfunction, and unsightly facial shape. It is difficult to achieve ideal treatment results for such deformities through orthodontic means alone, and often requires combined orthodontic and orthognathic treatment. Preoperative orthodontic treatment removes tooth compensation, orthognathic surgery moves the jaw bone to correct jaw deformity, and postoperative orthodontic treatment finely adjusts the occlusion. Traditional fixed appliances are increasingly unable to meet the needs of patients due to their shortcomings such as lack of beauty, poor comfort, and difficulty in maintaining oral hygiene.
[0003] Bracketless invisible orthodontic technology, also often referred to as invisible correction technology, is a method of correcting tooth alignment using transparent, removable plastic appliances. Compared with traditional metal brackets or ceramic brackets, bracketless invisible orthodontic appliances have the advantages of being beautiful, comfortable, easy to maintain oral hygiene, and predictable efficacy. At the same time, bracketless invisible orthodontic appliances are customized based on the three-dimensional scanning data of the patient's mouth, and can gradually guide the teeth to move to the desired position. During the entire digital treatment process, orthodontists can have a more comprehensive grasp of the movement of teeth, and patients can also have a certain understanding and knowledge of the entire treatment process through simulated animations. Therefore, more and more patients undergoing orthodontic and orthognathic combined treatment require the use of bracketless invisible orthodontics. Correspondingly, the application of bracketless invisible orthodontics in orthodontic and orthognathic combined treatment is becoming more and more extensive.
[0004] Although bracketless invisible technology has brought a technological revolution to preoperative orthodontic treatment, this change has also brought some clinical problems to maxillofacial surgeons: For patients using traditional fixed orthodontic devices, in the traditional method, we can use stainless steel wire for intermaxillary fixation between the maxillary and mandibular orthodontic archwires during surgery, and use the traditional non-dental covering intermediate occlusal guide and terminal occlusal guide to fix the maxillary and mandibular dental bone segments at the target position. Patients with bracketless invisible orthodontics do not have orthodontic archwires in their mouths. How to perform intermaxillary fixation during surgery to fix the maxillary and mandibular dental bone segments? Currently, the commonly used methods in clinical practice are mainly dental arch splints and intermaxillary traction pins, but both methods have certain disadvantages.
[0005] Dental arch splint: The dental arch splint is ligated to the dentition with stainless steel wire. During the operation, a stainless steel wire loop is used to ligate between the traction hooks of the dental arch splint to complete the intermaxillary fixation, and then the position of the maxillary and mandibular dental bone segments is fixed with the help of a traditional occlusal guide. The disadvantage is that the dental arch splint needs to be fixed with stainless steel ligature wire on each tooth of the entire dentition, which causes great damage to the periodontal tissue, takes a long time during the operation, and the operating doctor is at risk of needle stick injury. It is also not conducive to the patient's maintenance of oral hygiene after the operation, and it is easy to cause adverse consequences such as gingival swelling and necrosis.
[0006] Intermaxillary traction pins: This method is to implant a total of 8-10 titanium self-tapping intermaxillary traction pins in the upper and lower jaws. The implantation site is usually between the lateral incisors and canines and between the first premolars or between the second premolars and first molars in each area. Stainless steel wire loops are used to tie between the upper and lower traction pins to complete intermaxillary fixation, and then the position of the maxillary and mandibular bone segments is fixed with the help of traditional bite guides. Compared with dental arch splints, this method can effectively improve oral hygiene and shorten the operation time, but this method has the possibility of damaging the tooth roots. At the same time, the traction pins may become loose and broken. After surgery, there may also be disadvantages such as pain in the patient due to the traction pins and traction leather rings being wrapped by soft tissue. Utility Model Content
