Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical correction, in particular to a medical correction device for oral deformity, and more specifically to a functional corrector for patients with high-angle mandibular retrusion. Background Art
[0002] Many adolescent children have an obvious tendency of mandibular retraction before the developmental period due to genetic or acquired factors such as mouth breathing and bad habits. Some malocclusions may even affect the normal development of the soft and hard tissues of the maxillofacial region. If such patients are not treated in time, it will have a great impact on the development of the mandible. Therefore, in clinical diagnosis and treatment, for adolescent patients with mandibular retraction in the late stage of replacement dentition or the early stage of permanent dentition, early functional correction can be used to intervene in developmental deformities and improve growth patterns. Functional correction is an important part of orthodontic treatment. Functional appliances can promote normal growth and development of the craniofacial region by regulating the muscle function of the maxillofacial region, so as to achieve the purpose of correcting tooth and jaw deformities.
[0003] The commonly used functional appliance for treating mandibular retrusion is the twin-block. Common twin-block appliances have the following problems: 1. They have no vertical control over the dentition; 2. They are only suitable for patients with low angles or even angles, and are not suitable for patients with high angles; 3. The lower height is easy to lengthen after wearing. The lower height means the height of the lower 1 / 3 of the face, the distance from the bottom of the nose to the chin point. "The lower height is easy to lengthen" means "the height of the lower 1 / 3 of the face is easy to lengthen"; the mandibular plane angle (FMA) increases, causing the mandible to rotate clockwise. For patients with mandibular retrusion, clockwise rotation is very unfavorable and will aggravate the tendency of mandibular retrusion; 4. Lack of control over the anterior teeth, which is easy to deepen the anterior overbite; 5. The traditional twin-block appliance may make the lower anterior teeth more labially inclined during wearing, which is risky for patients with thin labial alveolar bones, and the labial inclination of the lower anterior teeth is not conducive to the correction of mandibular retrusion.
[0004] Those skilled in the art are in urgent need of developing a functional orthodontic appliance suitable for patients with high-angle mandibular retrusion to expand the scope of application of the orthodontic appliance. Summary of the invention

[0050] Molars: Located behind the bicuspids, there are 12 in total (at least 8) on the upper, lower, left and right sides.
[0051] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the functional appliance for patients with high-angle mandibular retrusion may include a maxillary appliance 1, a mandibular appliance 2, a head cap 3 and a hook component 4.
[0052] Among them, the maxillary appliance 1 is provided with a first induction bevel 5, a first interproximal hook 6, a retention clasp 7 and a hook 8. The first induction bevel 5 and the first interproximal hook 6 are arranged at the position of the upper bicuspids; the retention clasp 7 is arranged at the position of the maxillary first molar; the hook 8 is arranged at the position of the maxillary lateral incisor and the upper canine. The above-mentioned positions all refer to the positional relationship between the maxillary appliance 1 and the patient's teeth after the patient wears it, and the same applies below. The function of the first interproximal hook 6 and the retention clasp 7 is to fix the maxillary appliance 1 on the upper row of teeth. The function of the hook 8 is to allow the hooking component 4 to be hooked and connected.
[0053] The mandibular appliance 2 cooperates with the maxillary appliance 1, and the mandibular appliance 2 is provided with a second induction bevel 9 and a second interproximal hook 10; the second induction bevel 9 is arranged at the position of the lower bicuspids, and cooperates with the first induction bevel 5 to guide the mandible to protrude forward; that is, when the first induction bevel 5 contacts the second induction bevel 9, the mandibular appliance will move forward along the induction bevel, so that the mandible is forced to protrude forward, guiding the mandibular growth and development to correct the mandibular retraction. The second interproximal hook 10 is arranged at the position of the lower bicuspids, and the function of the second interproximal hook 10 is to fix the mandibular appliance 2 on the lower teeth.
[0054] The head cap 3 is used to be worn on the head of the person being corrected. One end of the hook and pull component 4 is connected to the head cap 3 by an elastic traction member such as an elastic rubber band, and the other end of the hook and pull component 4 is connected to the hook 8 of the maxillary appliance 1, which is used to apply an upward and backward corrective force to the maxilla and depress the maxillary dentition. When in use, the maxillary appliance 1 and the mandibular appliance 2 are worn in the patient's mouth all day except for eating and brushing teeth, and the head cap 3 and the hook and pull component 4 are worn in non-social occasions and at night. After wearing the hook and pull component 4 and the head cap 3, it is possible to apply an upward and backward corrective force to the maxilla, and use the maxillary appliance 1 and the mandibular appliance 2 to guide the mandible to protrude while depressing the maxillary dentition, thereby increasing the vertical control of the dentition, adjusting the occlusal plane angle, and improving the growth type.
[0055] The principle of the hook and pull component 4 and the head cap 3 is: the hook and pull component 4 is pulled at a high position outside the mouth, and two hooks 8 are formed at the position of the maxillary lateral incisor and the upper canine. The hook and pull component 4 is hung on the hook 8, and then connected to the high head cap 3 with an elastic ring. With the help of extraoral force high-position traction, the maxillary dentition is pressed upward and backward. It is suitable for patients with high angles who need vertical control and patients with deep overbite of maxillary anterior teeth.

The contact slope between the first inducing slope 5 and the second inducing slope 9 is inclined from bottom to top toward the front side. Figure 4 As shown. In this way, when the upper and lower jaws are in occlusion, the lower jaw will be forced to extend forward along the contact slope that tilts from bottom to top toward the front side, thereby guiding the lower jaw forward and promoting the growth and development of the mandibular bone. Preferably, the contact slope between the first inductive slope 5 and the second inductive slope 9 is at an angle of 45° to the vertical direction. When the upper and lower jaws are in occlusion, the 45° angle can make the contact slope between the first inductive slope 5 and the second inductive slope 9 occlude smoothly.

In this embodiment, an expander can be added between the two parts of the maxillary appliance 1 according to the needs of the patient, such as a slow expander, and the arch is expanded twice a week. After each expansion, the patient will feel the expansion force of the dentition to the left and right sides when wearing it. After wearing it for a period of time, the dental arch will expand to the corresponding position, which can improve the narrow dental arch.
[0060] Specifically, the maxillary appliance 1 includes an upper base 14, which is adapted to the upper palate of the oral cavity; the upper base 14 is arranged in two parts, the two parts of the upper base 14 are symmetrical about the mid-palatal suture, the first induction slope 5, the first interproximal hook 6, the retaining clasp 7 and the hook 8 are symmetrically arranged on the two parts of the upper base 14 respectively; the upper base 14, as a carrier, can be made according to the patient's oral model and adapted to the patient's upper teeth. The maxillary expander 13 is arranged between the two parts of the upper base 14, and is used to expand the two parts of the upper base 14 to both sides of the mid-palatal suture.
[0061] In the embodiment of the utility model, the mandibular appliance 2 includes a lower base 15, the lower base 15 is symmetrical about the midline, and the second inductive slope 9 and the second interproximal hook 10 are symmetrically arranged on the lower base 15.
