[0030] The present invention will be described below in conjunction with specific implementation methods.

[0031] Embodiment 1, as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, an improved tongue side buckle structure includes a tongue side buckle body 1, and the tongue side buckle body 1 includes a fixed base 2 and a pulling hook part 3 for pulling the rubber band when in use.

[0032] Among them, Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the fixing base 2 includes a lingual side fixing portion 4 which is bonded and fixed to the lingual side 81 of the tooth 8 when in use.

[0033] Further, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the fixing base 2 also includes an occlusal surface fixing portion 5 which is bonded and fixed to the occlusal surface 82 of the tooth 8 when in use, and the lingual side fixing portion 4 is arranged at the rear end of the occlusal surface fixing portion 5 and protrudes and extends downward.

[0034] Furthermore, Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the front end of the occlusal surface fixing portion 5 is provided with an upper extension portion 6 protruding upward, the pulling hook portion 3 is provided at the upper end of the upper extension portion 6, and the pulling hook portion 3 is located at the front side of the lingual side fixing portion 4.

[0035] It should be noted that the pulling hook portion 3, the lingual side fixing portion 4, the occlusal surface fixing portion 5, and the upper extension portion 6 are an integrated structure. Among them, the lingual side buckle body 1 of the first embodiment is a metal part, and the pulling hook portion 3, the lingual side fixing portion 4, the occlusal surface fixing portion 5, and the upper extension portion 6 together constitute the lingual side buckle body 1.

[0036] During use of the improved lingual buckle structure of the first embodiment, the lingual side fixing portion 4 is bonded and fixed to the lingual side 81 of the tooth 8 by glass ionomerization, and the occlusal surface fixing portion 5 is bonded and fixed to the occlusal surface 82 of the tooth 8 by glass ionomerization; after the lingual side fixing portion 4 and the occlusal surface fixing portion 5 are bonded and fixed respectively, the upper extension portion 6 protrudes from the occlusal surface 82 of the tooth 8 and the traction hook portion 3 is located in the area directly opposite to the occlusal surface 82 of the tooth 8, that is, the traction hook portion 3 is away from the lingual side 81 of the tooth 8, and the traction correction of the tooth 8 can be achieved by hooking the rubber band on the traction hook portion 3.

[0037] It should be emphasized that, for the improved lingual buckle structure of the first embodiment, its fixing base 2 is bonded and fixed to the lingual side surface 81 of the tooth 8 through the lingual side fixing portion 4 and is bonded and fixed to the occlusal surface of the tooth 8 through the occlusal surface fixing portion 5, that is, the fixing base 2 is bonded and fixed by two position fixing methods and is bonded and fixed to the lingual side surface 81 and the occlusal surface 82 of the tooth 8 at the same time. Compared with the lingual buckle in the prior art that is only bonded and fixed to the lingual side surface 81, the improved lingual buckle structure of the first embodiment has better bonding and fixing strength, good bonding firmness and good stability in use.

[0038] In addition, when the improved lingual buckle structure of the first embodiment is used, only the lingual side fixing portion 4 of the lingual buckle body 1 is located on the lingual side 81 of the tooth 8, and the pulling hook portion 3 is located in the area directly opposite to the occlusal surface 82 of the tooth 8 and the pulling hook portion 3 is away from the lingual side 81 of the tooth 8. This structural design can ensure that the pulling hook portion 3 used to hook the rubber band will not protrude from the lingual side 81 of the tooth 8; compared with the lingual buckle in the prior art in which the hook portion protrudes toward the patient's tongue side, the improved lingual buckle structure of the first embodiment can effectively reduce the discomfort caused by the lingual buckle protruding toward the tongue side, that is, it can effectively improve the comfort of use and effectively reduce the traumatic ulcers of the tongue mucosa caused by the patient licking the lingual buckle with his tongue, so as to reduce the pain of the patient during tooth 8 correction.

[0039] It should be pointed out that since the upper extension portion 6 and the pulling hook portion 3 are both located in the area directly opposite to the occlusal surface 82 of the tooth 8, in order to prevent the patient having orthodontic treatment of the tooth 8 from biting the lingual buckle body 1 when chewing food, a blue rubber pad 9 can be provided at the occlusal surface 82 of the tooth 8, and the blue rubber pad 9 is higher than the lingual buckle body 1.

[0040] Based on the above, it can be seen that through the above structural design, the improved tongue side buckle structure of the first embodiment has the advantages of novel structural design, good bonding firmness, and good comfort in use, and can effectively reduce the traumatic ulcers of the tongue mucosa caused by the patient licking the tongue side buckle with his tongue.

[0041] Embodiment 2, as Figure 2 As shown, the difference between the second embodiment and the first embodiment is that the bonding and fixing surface of the lingual side fixing portion 4 and the bonding and fixing surface of the occlusal surface fixing portion 5 are respectively rough surfaces 7 .

[0042] For the bonding and fixing surfaces of the lingual side fixing portion 4 and the occlusal surface fixing portion 5, they may be a rough surface 7 structure formed by opening a plurality of holes, or a rough surface 7 structure formed by an uneven surface.

[0043] By setting the bonding and fixing surfaces of the lingual side fixing part 4 and the occlusal surface fixing part 5 as rough surfaces 7, when the lingual side fixing part 4 and the occlusal surface fixing part 5 are bonded and fixed to the teeth 8 through glass ionomer, the above-mentioned rough surface 7 structure can effectively improve the bonding strength, thereby improving the stability of the bonding and fixing of the fixing base 2.

[0044] Embodiment three, as Figures 1 to 3As shown, the difference between the third embodiment and the first embodiment is that the upper extension portion 6 includes a vertical section 61 extending vertically and an inclined section 62 extending obliquely, the inclined section 62 gradually extends upward and rearward from bottom to top, the lower end of the vertical section 61 is connected to the front end of the occlusal surface fixing portion 5, the lower end of the inclined section 62 is connected to the upper end of the vertical section 61, and the pulling hook portion 3 is arranged at the upper end of the inclined section 62.

[0045] The upper extension portion 6 designed in the above shape can have a certain elasticity, that is, the entire upper extension portion 6 is equivalent to a bent elastic arm. When the patient with tooth 8 correction performs biting action with a large bite force, the upper extension portion 6 can adaptively deform elastically, thereby effectively avoiding the rigid collision of the patient's other teeth 8 with the lingual buckle body 1, thereby improving the protection effect of the teeth 8.

[0046] Embodiment 4, as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the difference between the fourth embodiment and the first embodiment is that the pulling hook portion 3 is bent and extended downward, and the lower end portion of the pulling hook portion 3 is in a shape of being wider at the top and narrower at the bottom.

[0047] It should be explained that since the lower end of the pulling hook portion 3 is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, when the rubber band is hooked on the pulling hook portion 3, the wedge-shaped structure with a wide at the top and narrow at the bottom can make the rubber band slide into the pulling position of the pulling hook portion 3 quickly and accurately, thereby improving the convenience of connecting the tongue side buckle body 1 with the rubber band.

[0048] Embodiment 5, as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the difference between the fifth embodiment and the first embodiment is that the corners of the tongue side buckle body 1 are all rounded.

[0049] The above contents are only preferred embodiments of the present invention. For ordinary technicians in this field, according to the concept of the present invention, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scopes. The contents of this specification should not be understood as limiting the present invention.
