Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of medical devices, in particular to a tooth inner cavity visual field expander. Background Art

[0002] Teeth are the hardest organs in the human body. In addition to the functions of cutting, biting and chewing, they also play a role in maintaining facial appearance and assisting pronunciation. When there is a problem with the teeth, timely treatment should be sought. Common treatment methods include tooth extraction, which aims to eliminate terminal lesions of dental diseases such as severe caries, severe periodontal disease, impacted teeth (wisdom teeth), etc., or treatment requires the removal of teeth that have no retention value, such as supernumerary teeth, retained deciduous teeth, infected lesion teeth, teeth damaged by cysts or tumors, severely damaged and traumatized teeth, and teeth with accumulated lesions from radiotherapy. Tooth extraction is a radical surgery. Usually after tooth extraction treatment, the primary disease can be cured and no further treatment is required.

[0003] When extracting relatively complex teeth, some patients have trouble opening their mouths, and forcing their mouths too wide can easily cause jaw dislocation. For example, when extracting impacted teeth that have not erupted safely, the patient needs to maintain a stable mouth opening to expose the surgical field. At this time, the gums will block the operation in the mouth, and a flap needs to be opened to fully expose the operation. At this time, the buccal and lingual gums on both sides of the tooth are at risk of injury during surgery, and improvements need to be made throughout the entire surgical field exposure process.

[0004] To this end, we proposed a dental cavity visual field expander to solve the problems existing in the above-mentioned surgical field exposure process. Summary of the Invention

[0019] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0020] Example 1 See also Figure 1-Figure 4 , a tooth cavity visual field expander, comprising: The mouth opener 1 includes a support bar 101 for supporting the upper and lower rows of teeth, and a flexible bite bar 103 is fixedly connected to the upper and lower ends of the support bar 101 for locking the position of the fixed support bar 101 by biting the teeth; In this embodiment 1, the support bar 101 is configured as a rigid medical PVC bar, which can be safely placed in the oral opening for support use; Furthermore, a curved convex bulge surface 102 is formed on the side of the support bar 101 facing the cheek, and the curved surface of the bulge surface 102 touches the oral cavity, allowing the cheek to bulge outward.

[0021] When the mouth is opened, the facial muscles stretch, the outer walls of the teeth touch the inner wall of the mouth, and the cheeks bulge outward through the bulging surface 102 of the support bar 101, preventing the teeth from accidentally biting the oral mucosa inside the mouth when biting the upper and lower ends of the support bar 101.

[0022] In life, obesity is quite common, and some people also have fat faces. Even when chewing in daily life, they may accidentally bite the oral mucosa on the inside of the cheek. Taking these problems into consideration, an arc-shaped protrusion is provided on one side of the support bar 101 to form a drum veneer 102, which pushes outward the oral mucosa on the outside of the teeth to avoid accidental biting of the oral mucosa when biting and pressing the support bar 101.

[0023] In this embodiment 1, the bite strip 103 is configured as a flexible medical PVC strip, which is inclined outward along the opening angle of the upper and lower teeth to form an inclined surface 104 for tooth occlusion; Furthermore, the inclined surface 104 is integrally connected with a plurality of air bag strips 105 arranged at equal intervals, which are used for tooth occlusion and can allow the teeth to be embedded and hook the opener 1, thereby avoiding sliding and displacement, and stably opening the mouth to expose the surgical field of the tooth area.

[0024] It should be noted that when the patient raises his head and opens his mouth, the inclined surface 104 above the support bar 101 is tilted upward, and the inclined surface 104 above the support bar 101 is tilted downward, so that the bite bar 103 is placed in the oral cavity to allow the upper and lower teeth of the open mouth to bite relative to each other.

[0025] The jaw support device 2 includes a head support 201 with an arc-shaped structure for wearing on the head; one end of the head support 201 is detachably connected to the opener 1 via a thread 207 and is placed on the tooth area not requiring surgery, opening the tooth to expose the tooth area requiring surgery; the end of the head support 201 opposite the opener 1 is telescopically connected to the jaw support 202, which has an arc-shaped hook structure and is used to hook and support the patient's lower jaw to prevent jaw dislocation caused by prolonged opening of the jaw; In this embodiment 1, the head support 201 and the jaw support 202 are both made of plastic, so that the head support 201 can be elastically deformed and worn on the patient's head, just like some headphones. In this embodiment 1, one end of the jaw support 202 is integrally connected to an upright telescopic bar 204, and one end of the head support 201 is integrally connected to a guide bar 203. One end of the guide bar 203 is slidably inserted into a guide groove 205 opened at the end of the telescopic bar 204. A tightening knob 206 is threadedly connected to one side of the telescopic bar 204. One end of the tightening knob 206 is movably pressed against the guide bar 203 for loosening and fixing, and is used for adjusting the jaw support 202 up and down, so as to adapt the jaw support to the patient.

[0026] In this embodiment 1, the thread 207 is set as a flexible PVC medical plastic thread, and a stud 208 is fixedly connected to one end of the thread 207. A threaded hole 209 is opened in the middle of the side of the support bar 101 facing the mouth, and the stud 208 is threadedly installed in the threaded hole 209. The combined opener 1 is on the jaw supporter 2 for easy use together.

[0027] When in use, the detachably connected mouth opener 1 can be flexibly used by selecting a suitable size according to the patient's mouth opening needs.

[0028] That is, the jaw support device 2 composed of the head support 201, the jaw support 202 and the thread 207 can be quickly put on the head, and then the jaw support 202 with adjustable height is used to hook and support the patient's lower jaw to prevent the jaw from being dislocated due to long-term opening of the mouth. In addition, the thread 207 can be freely combined with the mouth opener 1 of the specifications required by the patient to open the mouth, so as to support the patient's jaw after opening the mouth, prevent the jaw from being dislocated due to long-term opening of the mouth, and improve the safety of the mouth support. The gum spacer 3 includes an extension rod 301 detachably connected to one side of the support bar 101. The extension rod 301 is located near the upper teeth. Two arc-shaped pressure flaps 303 are detachably connected to the bottom of one end of the extension rod 301. The two pressure flaps 303 are used to respectively expand the lingual and buccal gums outward, limit the opening of the flap after surgical incision, and expose the surgical field of the teeth.

[0029] In this embodiment 1, the gum spacer 3 is configured as a hard medical PVC component, which is safe for use in the patient's oral cavity; One end of the extension rod 301 is detachably threaded to one side of the bite bar 103 via a threaded head. The extension rod 301 of a suitable length can be selected according to the patient's mouth shape, so that the end of the extension rod 301 can be extended to the tooth area where surgery is required; The upper ends of the two pressing petals 303 are integrally connected to the vertical rod 302, forming a slot between the two pressing petals 303. The bottom of the slot is at least 10 mm away from the upper end surface of the lower tooth, leaving enough space for surgical operation. The top of the vertical rod 302 is detachably threadedly connected to the bottom of the extension rod 301 through a threaded head. The vertical rod 302 of appropriate length can be selected according to the patient's mouth shape to press the flap and leave enough space for surgical operation.
