Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of orthodontic appliances, in particular to a traction buckle structure of a transparent orthodontic appliance. Background Art

[0002] Transparent braces are commonly used orthodontic appliances to correct malocclusion. When there is misalignment of the upper and lower dental arches or when interactive force is required, elastic traction is usually required using rubber bands. The traction buckle is a traction device for placing rubber bands.

[0003] There are two types of traction devices currently used on transparent braces. One is to make an incision on one of the upper and lower braces, make a window on the other brace, bond a metal tongue button on the corresponding tooth, and use a rubber ring for traction between the incision and the metal tongue button. The other is to pre-install a polymer traction buckle on the transparent brace, and hang a traction rubber ring between the traction buckles.

[0004] In the case of traction with window incision, the incision is close to the tooth surface and it is not easy to hang the traction rubber ring. The incision often needs to be bent outward, and the tip of the incision may cause discomfort to the oral mucosa. With continuous traction, the incision deforms and the tip turns outward, further causing discomfort to the oral mucosa. Traction buckles such as tongue buttons bonded to the tooth surface need to be etched with acid and bonded with adhesives. If the traction position changes, the original traction buckle needs to be removed and transferred to the new position. The clinical operation is cumbersome and affects the patient's treatment experience.

[0005] Pre-set traction buckles have protrusions. The traction buckles at the corners of the mouth are easy to irritate the lip mucosa and cause discomfort. Pre-set traction buckles are affected by the bonding position and bonding strength, and sometimes the traction buckles fall off or are swallowed by mistake. Pre-set traction buckles require a certain production process to ensure bonding strength and precise placement. Utility Model Content

[0028] Example

[0029] Combined with Figure 1-3 A transparent brace traction buckle structure includes a transparent brace 3. When there is misalignment of the upper and lower dental arches or when interactive force is required, a rubber band is usually required for elastic traction. The transparent brace 3 is customized according to the patient's treatment plan. The transparent brace 3 needs to be buckled on the teeth of the upper and lower jaws. The transparent brace 3 needs to be worn by the upper and lower jaws to cooperate with each other to be practical. The transparent braces 3 of the upper and lower jaws need to be connected with elastic parts such as rubber bands to achieve the correction effect of the transparent brace 3 on tooth baring.

[0030] The transparent brace 3 is provided with a protrusion 1, which is directly integrated with the transparent brace 3. The protrusion 1 protrudes from the transparent brace 3 by linear extension, or the end of the protrusion 1 is rounded to reduce irritation to the oral skin and oral mucosa.

[0031] The protrusion 1 is provided with a cutout 2, which is parallel to the transparent brace 3. The cutout 2 of the protrusion 1 is used to install an elastic member for connecting the transparent brace 3.

[0032] The shape of the protrusion 1 is not limited, and is preferably circular, and also includes but is not limited to circular, elliptical, rectangular, triangular, inclined protrusion, etc.

[0033] The height of the protrusion 1 is 0.5-2.5 mm.

[0034] The depth of the incision 2 is relatively set according to the size of the protrusion 1 , and the depth of the incision 2 is 1 / 3 to 2 / 3 of the diameter, maximum diameter or length of the protrusion 1 .

[0035] In a preferred embodiment, the shape of the protrusion 1 is circular, and the diameter of the protrusion 1 is 0.7-3.0 mm.

[0036] The transparent braces 3 are correspondingly arranged on the upper and lower jaws, and the transparent braces 3 correspondingly arranged on the upper and lower jaws are provided with protrusions 1 that cooperate with each other. The directions of the cutouts 2 of the protrusions 1 on the transparent braces 3 of the upper and lower jaws are arranged in opposite directions, and the opening directions of the cutouts 2 of the transparent braces 3 of the upper and lower jaws are arranged in opposite directions, and the opening direction is parallel to the transparent braces or the opening direction is opposite to the stretching direction of the transparent braces, which is convenient for installing the elastic parts used to connect the upper and lower jaws transparent braces. The elastic parts are sleeved in the protrusions and will not fall off, so that the transparent braces can stably play a role in correcting the teeth.

[0037] The above schematically describes the present invention and its implementation methods, which are not restrictive. The drawings show only one implementation method of the present invention, and the actual structure is not limited thereto. Therefore, if ordinary technicians in this field are inspired by it and design structural methods and embodiments similar to the technical solution without creativity without departing from the purpose of the present invention, they should all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
