[0015] Figure 2 for Figure 1 The left view;
[0016] The components in the diagram are named as follows: 1. Braces; 2. Hollowed-out groove; 3. Pulling section; 4. Pulling wire; 5. Groove. Detailed Implementation
[0017] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, but this is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention. Example
[0018] This embodiment describes an orthodontic retainer, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it includes a dental brace 1 worn on the teeth. The inner wall of the dental brace 1 is provided with a traction part 3. The two ends of the traction part 3 are respectively wrapped from the innermost side of the dental brace 1 to the outer side and fit with it. A traction wire 4 for tractioning the maxillary anterior teeth is embedded in the traction part 3.
[0019] Braces 1 are made of resin, a lightweight and comfortable material. Resin is also inexpensive and easy to mold and manufacture, allowing it to be easily shaped into various sizes to adapt to different patients' tooth shapes and structures, ensuring the accuracy of Braces 1. A traction section 3 is attached to the inner wall of Braces 1, extending outwards from the inside of the mouth. This section reinforces the strength and thickness of Braces 1, minimizing the risk of damage. The two ends of the traction section 3 extend from the innermost side of Braces 1 to the outermost wall of the innermost tooth, providing inward traction for patients with protruding maxillary anterior teeth, thus consolidating the results of orthodontic treatment. The treatment effectively prevents the maxillary anterior teeth from protruding again, ensuring proper tooth alignment and normal occlusion. Furthermore, the traction section 3 contains an embedded traction wire 4, which further enhances the inward pulling force for patients with slightly protruding maxillary anterior teeth. After orthodontic treatment, the pulling force provided by the traction section 3 helps stabilize the teeth in their new positions, avoiding the risk of relapse. Orthodontic treatment involves not only tooth movement but also alveolar bone remodeling. By providing continuous and gentle pulling force, continuous alveolar bone remodeling can be promoted, making the teeth more stable in their post-correction positions. The pulling force provided by the traction section 3 helps adjust the position of the teeth, thereby improving occlusion, increasing chewing efficiency, and reducing tooth wear.
[0020] In actual use, the dental brace 1 is worn on the teeth of the patient, the strength of the dental brace 1 is enhanced by the pulling part 3, the service life is prolonged, then the cooperation of the pulling part 3 and the pulling wire 4 provides an inward pulling force for the patient with maxillary anterior teeth protrusion, prevents the maxillary anterior teeth from protruding again, and makes the teeth more stable in the corrected position.
[0021] The embodiment further illustrates the technology that the dental brace 1 is provided with a hollow groove 2 at the top of the rear side for exposing the occlusal surfaces of multiple teeth; the occlusal surfaces of the multiple teeth used for occlusion and mastication are exposed by the hollow groove 2 on the dental brace 1, so that the occlusal surfaces of the upper and lower jaws contact each other when the patient occludes and masticates, normal occlusion is achieved, the interference of the dental brace 1 on occlusion is reduced, and the patient wears the dental brace 1 more comfortably.
[0022] The embodiment further illustrates the technology that the edges of the hollow groove 2 are polished smooth; the dental brace 1 is smooth and has no sharp edges, so that the oral cavity tissue is not damaged when the dental brace 1 is worn, and the gap of the hollow groove 2 in contact with the teeth can be closed to prevent food residues from entering the dental brace 1 and affecting the use of the dental brace 1.
[0023] The embodiment further illustrates the technology that the dental brace 1 is provided with a plurality of grooves 5 at the bottom for avoiding the gums; the grooves at the bottom of the dental brace 1 better fit the shape of the teeth, so that the gums are not pressed by the dental brace 1, the damage and inflammation of the gums are reduced, the discomfort and foreign body sensation of the patient are reduced, the patient wears the dental brace 1 more comfortably, and oral cavity cleaning is easier for the patient.
[0024] The embodiment further illustrates the technology that the bending shape of the pulling part 3 is matched with the bending shape of the surface of the dental brace 1; the pulling part 3 is matched with the dental brace 1, so that the pulling part 3 better fits the shape of the teeth of the patient and ensures the pulling effect of the pulling part 3 on the teeth.
[0025] The embodiment further illustrates the technology that the pulling part 3 is made of titanium alloy material; the density of the titanium alloy is relatively low, the patient's burden is reduced while sufficient support and stability are provided, and the comfort of wearing is improved; the titanium alloy does not irritate the human tissue and does not cause rejection or allergic reactions when the dental brace 1 is worn in the oral cavity for a long time, so that the safety and health of the patient are ensured.
[0026] The embodiment further illustrates the technology that the pulling wire 4 is made of stainless steel structure; the stainless steel wire has excellent bending performance and can be customized and adjusted according to the condition of the teeth of the patient and the correction target, the flexibility ensures that the pulling part 3 provides stable and effective pulling force to guide the teeth to the correct position; and the stainless steel wire has good corrosion resistance and can maintain the stability of its performance and shape for a long time in the oral cavity environment.
