Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of oral orthodontic auxiliary appliances, in particular to an orthodontic appliance. Background Art

[0002] The control of anchorage is an important guarantee for achieving the expected effect of orthodontic treatment. Anchorage supports the reaction force caused by tooth movement.

[0003] At present, the traditional extraoral arch-head cap is often used as an anchorage control device in children and adolescents' correction. It consists of an inner arch and an outer arch. The inner arch is inserted into the molar band of the fixed orthodontic appliance, and the bilateral molars are connected by a transverse palatal rod to control the width between the molars. The outer arch is elastically connected to the low, medium and high head caps through the end hook. The patient's head is used as an extramandibular anchorage, which generates a three-dimensional force system force in the horizontal / sagittal / vertical direction on the molars, maxillary dental arch and maxilla, generating a force to enhance anchorage, push the molars to move far, and control the sagittal and vertical development of the maxilla.

[0004] At present, the support control of removable orthodontic appliances can only rely on support pins and intermaxillary support, and there is no other way. The failure rate of implanting support pins in children and adolescents is high, and it is not often used clinically. The control force of intermaxillary support is limited, which is difficult to meet the needs of most cases, and it is easy to cause unnecessary tooth movement, which is not conducive to the control of vertical direction and torque.

[0005] In addition, patients will be afraid when the anchorage pins are implanted and are full of fear of orthodontics. The anchorage pins often scratch the patient's buccal mucosa, causing ulcers and discomfort. There is also a risk of inflammation caused by the implantation of the anchorage pins.
