Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of medical instruments, and in particular to a root canal therapy instrument. Background Art
[0002] Root canal therapy is currently an ideal and proven treatment for various conditions such as pulpitis and pulp necrosis. The main process involves using a root canal therapy instrument to thoroughly clean the inside and walls of the diseased root canal, remove diseased tissue, and create a complete, smooth root canal lumen. The prepared root canal is then filled with other materials, such as gutta-percha points, to achieve the purpose of root canal repair and treatment. The root canal therapy instrument, also known as a root canal motor, is a precision electronic device used to reduce the doctor's workload by replacing manual root canal enlargement and creating a more standardized root canal. It significantly reduces the doctor's workload, saves time, and improves efficiency, and is widely used in clinical practice.
[0003] An endodontic device typically consists of a handheld unit and a matching contra-angle handpiece. The contra-angle handpiece is equipped with a root canal file. Because the tooth to be treated can be located in the upper or lower jaw, or at the front or back end, the contra-angle handpiece needs to be adjusted to different angles to facilitate the doctor's root canal treatment. In existing endodontic devices, the contra-angle handpiece is detachably connected to the handheld unit. When the doctor needs to adjust the angle of the contra-angle handpiece, the contra-angle handpiece must be constantly plugged in and out, which is cumbersome. Furthermore, the connection between the bending mechanism and the handheld unit can become loose and shaky, rendering the contra-angle handpiece unstable and seriously affecting the doctor's operation. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a root canal therapy instrument to solve the problems existing in the background technology.
