Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical auxiliary tools, in particular to a novel intraoral supporter. Background Art

[0002] During oral examination or treatment, medical staff often ask patients to keep their mouths open so that they have enough space for observation and operation. In order to ensure that patients can keep their mouths open effectively and stably, intraoral supporters (also known as intraoral bite pads) came into being; when used, the patient's upper and lower teeth bite the intraoral supporter, and the intraoral supporter supports the upper and lower teeth to open.

[0003] The patent number is: ZL202320682223.5, and the patent name is: A Chinese utility model patent for an intraoral support device with adjustable opening. It discloses the following technical solutions, specifically: an intraoral support device with adjustable opening, comprising two tooth pads, the ends of the two tooth pads are hinged by a self-locking structure so that the two tooth pads can be repeatedly locked and fixed at different angles; an elastic or flexible protective pad is provided on the side of the tooth pad facing away from the other tooth pad, the protective pad protrudes from the tooth pad, and the side of the protective pad facing away from the tooth pad is wavy.

[0004] It should be pointed out that the above-mentioned intraoral supporter with adjustable opening degree has the following defects, specifically:

[0005] Defect 1. After the two tooth pads are locked and fixed at the specified angle by the self-locking structure, the entire intraoral supporter is maintained at the locked and fixed angle; when in use, the patient's upper and lower teeth need to keep biting the two tooth pads of the intraoral supporter. When the patient moves his mouth due to the discomfort caused by long-term occlusion, the upper or lower teeth will withdraw from the corresponding tooth pad, causing the entire intraoral supporter to slip and shift. After the slip and shift occurs, the medical staff needs to reposition the intraoral supporter, which means that the stability and reliability of use are poor;

[0006] Defect 2: The entire intraoral support device includes two tooth pads, and the two tooth pads are connected by a self-locking structure, and the overall structure is complicated. Utility Model Content

[0017] Figure 1 It is a structural schematic diagram of the utility model.

[0018] Figure 2 It is a structural schematic diagram of the utility model from another perspective.

[0019] exist Figure 1 and Figure 2 Included are:

[0020] 1-support body; 2-upper support part; 3-lower support part; 4-upper soft silicone part; 41-upper tooth slot; 5-lower soft silicone part; 51-lower tooth slot. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] The present invention will be described below in conjunction with specific implementation methods.

[0022] Embodiment 1, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a new type of intraoral supporter includes a supporter body 1, and the supporter body 1 includes an upper support part 2 and a lower support part 3 located at the lower side of the upper support part 2.

[0023] Among them, Figure 1 As shown, the front view of the support body 1 is in the shape of a "C"; Figure 2 As shown, the shape of the support body 1 in a top view is an arc shape.

[0024] Also, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the occlusal surface of the upper support part 2 is provided with an upper soft silicone part 4 extending along the upper support part 2, and the upper soft silicone part 4 is formed with an upper tooth groove 41 opening upward; the occlusal surface of the lower support part 3 is provided with a lower soft silicone part, and the lower soft silicone part is formed with a lower tooth groove 51 opening downward.

[0025] It should be pointed out that since the top view shape of the support body 1 is an arc shape, the support body 1 with an arc shape design can effectively adapt to the shape of the upper and lower dentition; when in use, the teeth of the patient's upper dentition are inserted into the upper tooth groove 41 of the upper soft silicone part 4, and the teeth of the patient's lower dentition are inserted into the lower tooth groove 51 of the lower soft silicone part, the upper soft silicone part 4 holds the teeth of the patient's upper dentition tightly, and the lower soft silicone part holds the teeth of the patient's lower dentition tightly, and the support body 1 stretches the patient's upper and lower dentition and allows the patient to keep his mouth open. When the support body 1 is in the supporting position, the arc-shaped upper support part 2 can make the teeth of the patient's upper dentition more clamped in the upper tooth groove 41, and the arc-shaped lower support part 3 can make the teeth of the patient's lower dentition more clamped in the lower tooth groove 51. The support body 1 with a "C" shape in the front view can be adaptively elastically deformed. When the patient's mouth moves in the open mouth state, the support body 1 can adaptively elastically deform and keep the patient's upper and lower dentitions in the corresponding upper and lower tooth grooves 41 and 51. The arc-shaped upper support part 2 and lower support part 3 can effectively increase the contact area between the teeth and the intraoral support when the patient bites the intraoral support, thereby effectively avoiding the problem of the intraoral support slipping and shifting when the patient's mouth moves, and the use is more stable and reliable.

[0026] Based on the above, it can be seen that through the above structural design, the new intraoral support device of the first embodiment has the advantages of novel structural design, stable use and good reliability.

[0027] Embodiment 2: The difference between Embodiment 2 and Embodiment 1 is that the support body 1 is a hard plastic part, the upper soft silicone part 4 and the support body 1 are injection molded into an integral structure, and the lower soft silicone part and the support body 1 are also injection molded into an integral structure.

[0028] Embodiment three, as Figure 1 As shown, the difference between the third embodiment and the second embodiment is that in the front view of the support body 1, the support body 1 is wide in the middle and narrow at both ends.

[0029] Since the support body 1 is wide in the middle and narrow at both ends, the support body 1 designed in this shape can effectively increase the elastic support strength.

[0030] Embodiment 4: The difference between the embodiment 4 and the embodiment 1 is that the side walls of the upper tooth slot 41 and the side walls of the lower tooth slot 51 are respectively provided with protrusions.

[0031] By providing protrusions on the side walls of the upper tooth slots 41 and the lower tooth slots 51, the new intraoral support device of the fourth embodiment can further improve the stability of the upper tooth slots 41 and the lower tooth slots 51 in holding the teeth, thereby further improving the stability and reliability during use.

[0032] 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.
