Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of medical instruments, in particular to a buccal mucosa protection device. Background Art

[0002] Most dental treatments require the use of an oral turbine, which drives the dental drill to rotate at high speed. The high-speed dental drill generates a lot of heat during the tooth cutting process, and high-pressure water cooling is used to prevent tooth tissue from overheating and necrosis. However, in the limited space of the oral cavity, the doctor needs to hold a high-speed mobile phone in one hand and a mouth mirror in the other hand for coordinated protection during the tooth cutting process. It is impossible to take into account the isolation of the buccal mucosa at the same time, and accidental injury to the buccal mucosa occurs from time to time, which is difficult to avoid even for senior doctors with rich clinical experience; and there is also the possibility of muscle fatigue caused by long-term mouth opening. Some children or adult patients with weak control may not be able to control their behavior as agreed, and may suddenly close their mouths or dodge, causing the treatment equipment to accidentally damage the soft tissue around the buccal mucosa, causing multiple mental and physical pains to the patient, increasing medical expenses and psychological shadows to the doctor, resulting in more serious conflicts and disputes between doctors and patients.

[0003] Therefore, based on the above analysis, it is necessary to propose a device that can provide protection for the buccal mucosa during dental treatment. Utility Model Content

[0021] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the utility model clearer, the following will be described clearly and completely in combination with the technical solution in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are partial embodiments of the utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the protection scope of the utility model.

[0022] The buccal mucosa protection device of the preferred embodiment of the utility model is as follows Figure 1As shown, the device includes a C-shaped support plate 10, and two tooth pads 20 arranged side by side front and back are provided at the upper and lower ends of the support plate 10. The front and rear width of the tooth pads 20 is generally about 5 mm to reduce the obstruction of the gums. The tooth pads 20 are provided with a groove 21 for the teeth to bite, and the groove 21 runs through the front and rear end surfaces of the tooth pads 20 front and back, and the left and right width of the groove is at least more than twice the width of the teeth, so that the teeth can move left and right in the groove. There is a first gap 30 between the two tooth pads 20 arranged side by side front and back; the upper and lower ends of the support plate 10 are provided with facing vertical extension parts 11, and the tooth pads 20 are arranged on the vertical extension parts 11. The vertical extension parts 11 can be used to open the position where the cheeks and gums are close to each other, so that the gums can be fully exposed, which is convenient for doctors to operate and treat;

[0023] The device has a simple overall structure and is easy to use. The upper and lower tooth pads 20 and the C-shaped support plate 10 can not only support the patient's upper and lower teeth to reduce the patient's mouth opening fatigue, but the support plate 10 can also support and protect the buccal mucosa to avoid accidental damage to the buccal mucosa when the doctor operates the instrument. The arc-shaped part of the support plate 10 can also support the cheek to open outward, providing the doctor with a larger operating space.

[0024] In addition, in order to further facilitate the treatment of wisdom teeth, the upper and lower tooth pads at the rear end of the support plate can also be cancelled. The upper and lower parts of the rear end of the support plate can be supported on the tissue outside the gums to provide support, and the tooth pad at the front end of the support plate continues to support the teeth, which not only facilitates the doctor's operation but also reduces the patient's fatigue when opening the mouth.

[0025] In this embodiment, a horizontal extension portion 12 is provided at the end of the vertical extension portion 11 corresponding to the tooth pad 20. The end of the horizontal extension portion 12 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the tooth pad 20, which can further expand the distance between the connection and the gums, making it easier for doctors to operate the treatment device.

[0026] In this embodiment, there is a second gap 40 between the two horizontal extension parts 12 arranged side by side in the front and back, and the first gap 30 is directly connected to the second gap 40 and together forms a treatment cavity 100, which is convenient for treating the lesion. When in use, the first gap 30 and the second gap 40 can be used to expose the lesion by moving the support plate 10 forward and backward, while also ensuring that the upper and lower jaws can remain open.

[0027] In this embodiment, the horizontal extension portion 12 is flush with a side surface of the tooth pad 20 having the groove 21, so that the tooth pad 20 and the vertical extension portion 11 form a step structure. When the teeth are engaged in the groove 21, a cavity exposing the gums can be formed through the step structure, which is more conducive to the doctor's observation and treatment operations.

[0028] In this embodiment, a C-shaped support steel wire (not shown) is provided in the support plate 10, and the ends of the support steel wire pass through the adjacent vertical extension part 11 and the horizontal extension part 12 in sequence and extend into the tooth pad 20. The support steel wire can strengthen the structural strength of the support plate 10 on the one hand, and can also make the support plate 10 have a certain elasticity on the other hand, so as to enhance the comfort of the patient's bite.

[0029] In this embodiment, the device also includes a fixed rod 50 horizontally arranged on the inner side wall of the support plate 10, and an axial hole 51 is axially arranged on the terminal end face of the fixed rod 50, and a matching movable rod 60 is arranged in the axial hole 51, and a positioning groove (not shown) is circumferentially arranged on the inner wall of the axial hole 51, and a positioning rib 61 matching the positioning groove is provided on the side wall of the movable rod 60. There are multiple positioning grooves and they are arranged axially, and a plug-in groove 62 is also provided on the side wall of the movable rod. The fixed rod and the movable rod are arranged to be positioned by the positioning rib and the positioning groove, and can rotate relative to each other in the circumferential direction. When in use, it is convenient for the doctor to insert the stripper into the plug-in groove 62 to adjust the position of the support plate, and the fixed rod and the movable rod can rotate relative to each other, which greatly facilitates the doctor's need to adjust the upper and lower positions of the stripper.

[0030] In this embodiment, an anti-slip layer 70 is provided on the inner wall of the groove 21 to prevent the teeth and the tooth pad 20 from slipping during treatment. The upper ends of the left and right side walls of the groove 21 are both provided with arc chamfers 80 to facilitate tooth occlusion.

[0031] In this embodiment, the support plate 10 is a transparent plate, which is convenient for doctors to observe the condition of the buccal mucosa.

[0032] It should be understood that those skilled in the art can make improvements or changes based on the above description, and all these improvements and changes should fall within the scope of protection of the claims attached to the utility model.
