Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of dental medical equipment and apparatus, in particular to a multifunctional invisible orthodontic appliance. Background Art
[0002] Dental braces, commonly known as braces, are devices used for orthodontic treatment to correct teeth to the proper bite position. Braces are usually used to improve malocclusion, including buck teeth, protruding teeth, misaligned teeth, open bites, uneven teeth, or other various defects in the teeth, etc., for the purpose of cosmetic or structural adjustment. With the improvement of people's living standards, they hope that the process of dental correction will not affect their daily life and social life. As a result, a transparent or surface-transparent brace has emerged, which places the correction mechanism on the back of the teeth. It is called an invisible brace or invisible braces.
[0003] Traditional invisible braces do have a certain effect in improving tooth alignment, but they also have certain limitations and defects. First, when worn at night, their material is usually hard, which may cause teeth grinding problems. Wearing them for a long time at night may cause additional pressure and friction, causing wear on the tooth surface and even gum problems. This teeth grinding phenomenon not only affects the patient's comfort, but also affects the stability and durability of the correction effect.
[0004] Secondly, the correction strength of traditional invisible braces is limited. They can only correct local structures neatly and cannot completely solve the problem of alveolar occlusion. For example, for the adjustment of tooth dislocation or alveolar structure, the effect of traditional invisible braces is relatively weak. It mainly moves the teeth gradually by gradually replacing the braces to achieve the effect of neat arrangement, but for complex alveolar occlusion problems, such as misalignment between teeth or misalignment of alveolar structure, the effect of traditional invisible braces is relatively limited, so a kind of multifunctional invisible braces has emerged. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a multifunctional invisible orthodontic appliance to solve the problems raised in the above-mentioned background technology.
[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions: a multifunctional invisible orthodontic appliance, comprising braces and a correction mechanism, the inner side of the braces is fixedly connected with a hard structure layer sleeve, the outer side of the hard structure layer sleeve is provided with a correction mechanism, the outer convex surface of the hard structure layer sleeve is wrapped with an anti-wear sleeve, and the interior of the hard structure layer sleeve is installed with a fixing plate.
[0007] Preferably, a fixing sheet is embedded in the inner surface of the hard structure layer sleeve, a threaded hole is opened at the center of the fixing sheet, and the fixing sheet is made of hard and transparent polymer silicone.
[0008] Preferably, one side of the fixing plate is threadedly connected to a threaded rod, and one side of the threaded rod is fixedly connected to a first limiting block.
[0009] Preferably, a first clamping shaft is inserted into one side of the first limiting block, and a first limiting plate is fixedly connected to one side of the first clamping shaft.
[0010] Preferably, an air cushion is sleeved inside the protrusion of the hard structure layer sleeve, and the air cushion is made of polymer silicone material.
[0011] Preferably, an orthodontic rubber band is sleeved on the outer side of the first clamping shaft, a second clamping shaft is sleeved on the other end of the orthodontic rubber band, and a second limiting plate is fixedly connected to one outer end of the second clamping shaft.
[0012] Preferably, a second limiting block is fixedly connected to one inner end of the second clamping shaft, and an attachment sheet is adhesively connected to one side of the second limiting block.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0014] This product is designed with a hard structure layer sleeve and a local correction area of the braces and the hard structure layer sleeve is raised through the action of an air cushion, and a soft anti-wear sleeve is sleeved on the raised part. During long-term wearing at night, the molars or chewing teeth of the upper and lower teeth can be separated to prevent teeth grinding from causing damage to the braces and wear of the enamel on the surface of the teeth, while avoiding gum problems caused by teeth grinding, making the correction process safer. On the other hand, through the combined use of the fixing plate, the first limit block, the first clamping axis, the first limit plate, the second clamping axis, the second limit plate, the second limit block and the orthodontic rubber band, the staggered molars can be stretched to the correct occlusal position by the tension of the orthodontic rubber band, which plays a certain role in tooth correction. The correction is performed on the inside of the teeth throughout the process, and the outside is transparent, so that the correction process is almost completed without being noticed by others.

[0025] Specifically, a fixing plate 302 is embedded in the inner surface of the hard structure layer sleeve 2, and a threaded hole 303 is opened at the center of the fixing plate 302. The fixing plate 302 is made of hard and transparent polymer silicone. The fixing plate 302 can fix the threaded rod 304 on the hard structure layer sleeve 2 through the threaded hole 303, providing an attachment point for the tooth correction process.
[0026] Specifically, one side of the fixing plate 302 is threadedly connected to a threaded rod 304, and one side of the threaded rod 304 is fixedly connected to a first limit block 305, which can move the correction position laterally outward to prevent the orthodontic rubber band 309 from being hung on the horizontal protrusion of the braces 1.
