[0039] The present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the specific embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. However, these embodiments do not limit the present invention, and any structural, methodological, or functional changes made by a person skilled in the art based on these embodiments are all within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0040] Combination Figures 1 to 9 , which is a schematic diagram of an orthodontic appliance assembly 200 according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0041] The orthodontic appliance assembly 200 includes an orthodontic appliance 100 and an accessory 10 that cooperate with each other, and an adjustment assembly 20 for adjusting the relative position between the orthodontic appliance 100 and the accessory 10 .

[0042] The adjustment component 20 includes a positioning portion 21 and a plurality of locking portions 22. The positioning portion 21 is located at one of the orthodontic appliance 100 and the accessory 10, and the locking portion 22 is located at the other of the orthodontic appliance 100 and the accessory 10. The positioning portion 21 is limited to different locking portions 22 to adjust the relative position between the orthodontic appliance 100 and the accessory 10.

[0043] In this embodiment, the position of the attachment 10 can be adjusted by adjusting the component 20 to meet different correction needs, thereby greatly improving the correction freedom and correction effect.

[0044] In this embodiment, the relative position between the orthodontic appliance 100 and the accessory 10 includes a first relative position in a first direction B1, a second relative position in a second direction B2, and a third relative position in a third direction B3, wherein the first direction B1 is the mesiodistal direction, the second direction B2 is perpendicular to the occlusal surface A1, and the third direction B3 is perpendicular to the buccal surface A2.

[0045] That is to say, the relative position of the orthodontic appliance 100 and the attachment 10 can be adjusted in the up-down, left-right, and front-back directions.

[0046] In this embodiment, the accessory 10 includes an active area 11 and a non-active area 12 , and the adjustment component 20 is disposed corresponding to the non-active area 12 .

[0047] Here, the action area 11 refers to the working area of ​​the accessory 10 (such as the force-bearing area, etc.), and the non-action area 12 refers to the non-working area of ​​the accessory 10. Setting the adjustment component 20 in the non-action area 12 will not affect the normal operation of the accessory 10 on the one hand, and on the other hand, the accessory 10 will not affect the adjustment component 20 when working, thereby avoiding damage, falling off, etc. of the adjustment component 20.

[0048] In this embodiment, the brace 100 may be an invisible brace, a myofunctional brace, an induced brace, etc. In this embodiment, the brace 100 is taken as an invisible brace as an example. An invisible brace refers to a shell-shaped dental device having a cavity for accommodating teeth. The accessory 10 is detachably mounted on the brace 100 through the adjustment component 20.

[0049] The accessory 10 can be a flat guide plate, an inclined guide plate, a jaw pad, a double jaw pad, a tongue button, a bracket, a tongue grid, etc. In this embodiment, the accessory 10 is a jaw pad as an example. The orthodontic appliance 100 covers the posterior tooth area and the anterior tooth area, and the jaw pad 10 is set corresponding to the posterior tooth area.

[0050] It is understandable that orthodontic treatment using braces generally requires multiple successive braces, for example, more than 20 or even more than 40. In some cases, the mandible needs to be advanced at a certain stage of orthodontic treatment, and then a twin-block needs to be set on the multiple successive upper and lower braces corresponding to the stage.

[0051] The jaw pad 10 includes an active area 11 and a non-active area 12 connected to each other. The active area 11 is arranged corresponding to the occlusal surface A1 , and the non-active area 12 is arranged corresponding to the buccal surface A2 or the lingual surface A3 . The adjustment component 20 is arranged corresponding to the non-active area 12 .

[0052] Here, the action area 11 is mainly used to contact the opposing teeth or the opposing orthodontic appliance or the opposing jaw pad. During the correction process, the action area 11 is subjected to the opposing jaw force, and the non-action area 12 is located on the side of the action area 11. In this way, the adjustment component 20 arranged in the non-action area 12 is away from the action area 11, and the adjustment component 20 does not affect the normal operation of the action area 11. Moreover, when the action area 11 corresponding to the occlusal surface A1 is subjected to the opposing jaw force, the force is mainly concentrated in the action area 11, and will not affect the adjustment component 20 located in the non-action area 12, thereby improving the stability of the adjustment component 20, thereby improving the stability of the cooperation between the jaw pad 10 and the orthodontic appliance 100, and the jaw pad 10 can work stably.

[0053] In this embodiment, the adjustment component 20 can be set only corresponding to the non-active area 12 of the buccal surface A2, or the adjustment component 20 can be set only corresponding to the non-active area 12 of the tongue surface A3, or the adjustment component 20 can be set to both the non-active areas 12 of the buccal surface A2 and the tongue surface A3.

[0054] In this embodiment, it is taken as an example that the jaw pad 10 includes two non-active areas 12 corresponding to the buccal surface A2 and the lingual surface A3 respectively, and the adjustment component 20 is arranged corresponding to the two non-active areas 12 .

[0055] That is to say, at this time, the jaw pad 10 is roughly in an arched structure, and the two non-active areas 12 extend along the second direction B2 and are connected to the two sides of the active area 11. One end of the jaw pad 10 is matched to the buccal surface A2 of the orthodontic appliance 100 through the adjustment component 20, and the other end of the jaw pad 10 is matched to the lingual surface A3 of the orthodontic appliance 100 through the adjustment component 20. The coordination between the jaw pad 10 and the orthodontic appliance 100 is achieved through the two adjustment components 20.

[0056] Continue to combine Figures 1 to 9 The positioning portion 21 of the adjustment component 20 includes a convex portion 211, and the plurality of positioning portions 22 are a plurality of limiting holes 22. The convex portion 211 is limited in different limiting holes 22 to form different relative positions.

[0057] The protrusion 211 is located on one of the corrector 100 and the jaw pad 10, and the plurality of limiting holes 22 are located on the other of the corrector 100 and the jaw pad 10. In this embodiment, the protrusion 211 is located on the corrector 100 and the plurality of limiting holes 22 are located on the jaw pad 10 as an example. In other embodiments, the positions of the protrusion 211 and the plurality of limiting holes 22 can be interchanged.

[0058] Specifically, taking the protrusion 211 located on the buccal surface A2 as an example, the orthodontic appliance 100 has a mounting surface 101 formed on the buccal surface A2, the mounting surface 101 is a flat plane, and the protrusion 211 protrudes from the mounting surface 101 along the third direction B3.

[0059] Here, the protrusion 211 is fixedly connected to the mounting surface 101, or the protrusion 211 is detachably connected to the mounting surface 101. In this embodiment, the protrusion 211 is fixedly connected to the mounting surface 101 as an example. The protrusion 211 can be fixedly installed on the mounting surface 101 with the help of a mounting base 212 at one end. The mounting base 212 is relatively large in size, which can improve the mounting strength.

[0060] The plurality of limiting holes 22 are located in the non-active area 12 , and the plurality of limiting holes 22 are through holes distributed at intervals.

[0061] It can be seen that when the protrusion 211 is matched with different limiting holes 22, the position of the jaw pad 10 will change.

[0062] Here, the size of the protrusion 211 is roughly equal to the size of the limiting hole 22. In this way, when the protrusion 211 is limited in the limiting hole 22, the protrusion 211 can be limited to move relative to the limiting hole 22 in the first direction B1 and the second direction B2, that is, the relative movement of the corrector 100 and the non-active area 12 in the first direction B1 and the second direction B2 is limited.

[0063] In this embodiment, the positioning portion 21 further includes a cap portion 213 connected to the protrusion 211 . The size of the cap portion 213 is larger than that of the protrusion 211 . The cap portion 213 is located on a side of the protrusion 211 away from the mounting surface 101 .

[0064] When the protrusion 211 is limited in the limiting hole 22, the cap portion 213 limits the relative movement between the non-active area 12 and the orthodontic device 100 in the third direction B3.

[0065] Here, the cap portion 213 can prevent the non-active area 12 from separating from the protrusion 211 along the third direction B3, and the length of the protrusion 211 in the third direction B3 is roughly equal to the thickness of the non-active area 12. The non-active area 12 can be clamped between the cap portion 213 and the mounting surface 101, and the relative movement between the orthodontic device 100 and the non-active area 12 in the third direction B3 is restricted.

[0066] At this time, the non-active area 12 is fully limited in the first direction B1, the second direction B2 and the third direction B3.

[0067] In addition, since the two non-active areas 12 corresponding to the buccal surface A2 and the lingual surface A3 are restricted in the first direction B1, the second direction B2 and the third direction B3, and the two non-active areas 12 are connected by the active area 11, the rotation of the entire jaw pad 10 will also be restricted, thereby achieving stable installation of the jaw pad 10.

[0068] It should be noted that the jaw pad 10 is formed of a soft material, for example, the jaw pad 10 is formed of polyurethane or silicone, and the limiting hole 22 located in the non-active area 12 of the jaw pad 10 can be deformed when subjected to force. After the limiting hole 22 that is matched to the protrusion 211 is determined according to needs, the limiting hole 22 is deformed and expanded at the cap 213 and passes through the cap 213, and then the limiting hole 22 is reset and matched to the protrusion 211.

[0069] In addition, the cap portion 213 and the protrusion 211 cooperate to form a mounting buckle 214, and the mounting buckle 214 can also be used to load other accessories, such as rubber bands, arch wires, etc.

[0070] Archwires refer to products with archwires, such as products formed by the combination of archwires and extraoral bows, lip stops, palatal bead trainers, etc.

[0071] That is to say, the mounting buckle 214 can be selectively connected to at least two types of accessories, which further improves the versatility of the mounting buckle 214, and different types of accessories can adapt to different application scenarios, which can improve the overall versatility of the orthodontic device assembly 200. In addition, different types of accessories can be used in combination to improve the correction efficiency.

[0072] In this embodiment, continue to combine Figures 1 to 9The plurality of limiting holes 22 are connected by limiting channels 23 . The size of the limiting holes 22 is larger than the size of the limiting channels 23 . The setting of the limiting channels 23 can improve the working convenience of the adjustment component 20 .

[0073] For example, when the jaw pad 10 has been installed on the orthodontic appliance 100, but the relative position between the jaw pad 10 and the orthodontic appliance 100 needs to be adjusted, force is directly applied to the non-active area 12, and the protrusion 211 squeezes the limiting channel 23 to deform it. After the protrusion 211 enters the required limiting hole 22, the limiting channel 23 is reset to prevent the protrusion 211 from escaping from the limiting hole 22. At this time, the position adjustment of the jaw pad 10 is completed.

[0074] In addition, the provision of the limiting channel 23 can help improve the deformation ability of the limiting hole 22 , thereby facilitating the limiting hole 22 to pass through the cap portion 213 and be matched to the protrusion 211 .

[0075] In this embodiment, multiple limiting holes 22 are arranged along the first direction B1, or multiple limiting holes 22 are arranged along the second direction B2, or multiple limiting holes 22 are arranged along the angle between the first direction B1 and the second direction B2. Multiple limiting holes 22 arranged in different directions can realize the adjustment of the relative position of the jaw pad 10 and the orthodontic device 100 in different directions. Specifically, multiple limiting holes 22 can be designed according to actual needs.

[0076] In addition, the orthodontic appliance 100 and the jaw pad 10 at different relative positions correspond to the same correction step or different correction steps.

[0077] For example, in the same correction step, the position of the jaw pad 10 relative to the appliance 100 can be adjusted at different time periods to adjust the correction effect, or, in different correction steps, the position of the jaw pad 10 relative to the appliance 100 can be adjusted to match the correction requirements of different correction steps.

[0078] It is understandable that after an inappropriate jaw pad 10 is installed on the braces 100, through the provision of the adjustment component 20 of the present embodiment, a suitable jaw pad 10 can be replaced without scrapping the braces 100, and the jaw pad 10 can also be reused, for example, the jaw pad 10 can be repeatedly fitted to the braces 100 of different correction steps.

[0079] In addition, the orthodontic appliance assembly 200 of the present embodiment may include a plurality of jaw pads 10 , and the plurality of jaw pads 10 have different parameters, including a width in the first direction B1 , a height in the second direction B2 , and hardness, etc.

[0080] At this time, the jaw pad 10 with different parameters, combined with the adjustment component 20 to adjust the position of the jaw pad 10, can further broaden the use freedom and application scope of the jaw pad 10, so that it can adapt to more application scenarios.

[0081] Specifically, with respect to the width of the jaw pad 10 in the first direction B1, when corresponding to different correction scenarios, the jaw pad 10 needs to adapt to different positions and different numbers of opposing teeth. In this case, the width of the jaw pad 10 in the first direction B1 needs to be adjusted.

[0082] Regarding the height of the jaw pad 10 in the second direction B2, it is necessary to adjust the height of the jaw pad 10 in the second direction B2 according to the distance between the upper occlusal surface and the lower occlusal surface in different dentition areas. For example, the height of the jaw pad 10 in the second direction B2 is determined according to the resting jaw gap in different dentition areas.

[0083] In view of the hardness of the jaw pad 10, in cases of anterior crossbite, posterior lockjaw, etc., a softer jaw pad is needed to assist in opening the bite for tooth movement correction. A jaw pad that is too hard often increases discomfort such as mucosal pressure and is also easy to cause discomfort when wearing or removing. In the early correction process of children, opening the bite with a soft jaw pad can not only reconstruct the jaw position but also help the children adapt. In the early invisible correction of children, the hardness of different functional areas of the appliance also needs to be different. Compared with the softer correction area, the jaw fixation area requires a jaw pad material with higher hardness.

[0084] Several embodiments of the orthodontic appliance assembly 200 are introduced below. For ease of description, the adjustment assembly 20 corresponding to the buccal surface A2 is taken as an example.

[0085] Combination Figures 1 to 9 , which is a schematic structural diagram of the orthodontic appliance assembly 200 according to the first embodiment.

[0086] In the first embodiment, the adjustment component 20 includes a protrusion 211 located on the cheek surface A2 and a plurality of limiting holes 22 located in the non-active area 12. The plurality of limiting holes 22 are arranged along the first direction B1. A protrusion 211 is matched with different limiting holes 22 to adjust the relative position of the jaw pad 10 and the orthodontic appliance 100 in the mesiodistal direction. At this time, the jaw pad 10 can be matched with the opposing teeth in different areas.

[0087] In a specific example, a plurality of limit holes 22 are arranged along a first direction B1, and a plurality of jaw pads 10 have different heights in a second direction B2. In this way, the position adjustment of the jaw pad 10 in the first direction B1 and the height adjustment in the second direction B2 can be achieved. That is, the position of the jaw pad 10 in the mesiodistal direction is adjusted by the adjustment component 20, and the height adjustment of the jaw pad 10 in the direction perpendicular to the occlusal surface A1 is achieved by replacing jaw pads 10 of different heights.

[0088] Combination Fig.10 and Fig.11 , is a schematic diagram of the adjustment component 20a of the second embodiment.

[0089] In the second embodiment, the adjustment component 20a includes a protrusion 211a located on the cheek surface A2 and a plurality of limiting holes 22a located in the non-active area 12a. The plurality of limiting holes 22a are arranged along the second direction B2. A protrusion 211a is matched with different limiting holes 22a to adjust the relative position of the jaw pad 10a and the orthodontic device 100a in the direction perpendicular to the occlusal surface A1. At this time, the height of the jaw pad 10a can be adjusted to adapt to different correction needs.

[0090] Combination Fig.12 and Fig.13 , is a schematic diagram of the adjustment component 20b of the third embodiment.

[0091] In the third embodiment, the adjustment component 20b includes a protrusion 211b located on the cheek surface A2 and a plurality of limiting holes 22b located in the non-active area 12b. The plurality of limiting holes 22b are arranged along the first direction B1 and the second direction B2 at the same time, that is, the plurality of limiting holes 22b are arranged in an array at this time. A protrusion 211b is matched with different limiting holes 22b to adjust the relative position of the jaw pad 10b and the orthodontic device 100b in the mesiodistal direction and in the direction perpendicular to the occlusal surface A1. At this time, it can be matched with the opposing teeth in different areas, and the height of the jaw pad 10b can be adjusted to meet different correction needs.

[0092] Combination Fig.14 and Fig.15 , is a schematic diagram of an adjustment component 20c of a fourth embodiment.

[0093] In the fourth embodiment, the adjustment component 20c includes a protrusion 211c located on the cheek surface A2 and a plurality of limiting holes 22c located in the non-active area 12c. The plurality of limiting holes 22c are arranged along the angle between the first direction B1 and the second direction B2. A protrusion 211c is matched with different limiting holes 22c to adjust the relative position of the jaw pad 10c and the orthodontic device 100c in the mesiodistal direction and in the direction perpendicular to the occlusal surface A1. At this time, it can be matched with the opposing teeth in different areas, and the height of the jaw pad 10c can be adjusted to meet different correction needs.

[0094] Combination Fig.16 , is a schematic diagram of the adjustment component 20d of the fifth embodiment.

[0095] In the fifth embodiment, the adjustment component 20d includes two protrusions 211d located on the cheek surface A2 and a plurality of limiting holes 22d located in the non-active area 12d. The plurality of limiting holes 22d are arranged along the first direction B1. The two protrusions 211d are matched to two specific adjacent limiting holes 22d to adjust the relative position of the jaw pad 10d and the orthodontic device 100d in the mesiodistal direction. Compared with the first embodiment, this embodiment can further improve the matching stability between the jaw pad 10d and the orthodontic device 100d.

[0096] It is understandable that, based on the above-mentioned multiple embodiments, in combination with the jaw pad 10 with different parameters as described above, the degree of freedom of the entire orthodontic appliance assembly 200 can be further improved to be suitable for more application scenarios.

[0097] In summary, the present invention can achieve adjustable position of the attachment 10 through the adjustment component 20 to adapt to different correction needs, thereby greatly improving the correction freedom and correction effect.

[0098] In addition, the present invention can achieve complete fixation between the accessory 10 and the orthodontic appliance 100, so that the accessory 10 can provide a stable orthodontic effect.
