Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of oral medicine, and particularly relates to an oral tooth aligner. Background Art
[0002] A dental brace, also known as a dental orthosis or dental arch wire, is a device used in dental orthodontics to calibrate teeth to an appropriate occlusion position. This device is usually used to improve poor occlusion, including overbite, buck teeth, anterior-posterior malocclusion, open bite, tooth irregularity or other various dental defects, etc. Its purpose is for beauty or adjusting the dental structure. However, most of the common dental braces on the market are of a fixed structure and fit tightly with the patient's teeth. The braces need to be removed before meals, and patients cannot ensure that they clean their teeth thoroughly every time after meals. As the use time prolongs, the hygiene condition of the braces gradually deteriorates. And due to the fixed structure of the braces and their complex internal shape, it is difficult to clean the braces thoroughly. Stains are likely to remain at the corners inside the braces, which may then easily lead to problems such as discoloration and odor emission of the braces, having an adverse impact on the daily use of the braces and also being likely to damage the oral health of the patients.

[0019] As a preferred embodiment, the outer braces 1 and the inner braces 2 are both U-shaped structures, and the alveolar groove 3 opened at the connection between the outer braces 1 and the inner braces 2 is a long strip structure. At the same time, the cross-section formed by the combination of the outer braces 1, the inner braces 2 and the alveolar groove 3 is a U-shaped structure.
[0020] In this embodiment, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 The arrangement of the outer braces 1 and the inner braces 2 enables the oral dental brace to be loaded and unloaded according to the actual needs of the patient, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency of the oral dental brace.
[0021] As a preferred embodiment, the cross-section of the external braces 1 is L-shaped, and the upper end of the outer side surface of the external braces 1 is an inclined structure. At the same time, the movable groove 8 opened in the external braces 1 is a long strip structure, one end of the movable groove 8 is connected to the end surface of the external braces 1, and the cross-section of the movable groove axis opened at the other end of the movable groove 8 is a Chinese-shaped structure.
[0022] In this embodiment, if Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3, The inclined plane structure of the outer dental brace 1 can effectively reduce the volume of the orthodontic appliance in the patient's oral cavity, thereby assisting in reducing the discomfort of the patient after wearing. At the same time, the structure of the moving groove 8 enables the limiting strip 4 to move along a specific path within the outer dental brace 1, thus facilitating the subsequent restriction of the fitting block 6 by the limiting strip 4.
[0023] As a preferred embodiment, the limiting strip 4 has a long strip structure, the dimensions of the limiting strip 4 and the moving groove 8 are adapted to each other, and a through groove 5 is correspondingly opened at the position of the lower surface of the limiting strip 4 relative to the fitting groove 9. At the same time, the through groove 5 has a square structure, and the limiting strip 4 and the through groove 5 together form an E-shaped structure.
[0024] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the dimensions of the limiting strip 4 and the moving groove 8 are adapted to each other, which can assist in enhancing the stability of the limiting strip 4 during movement and also enhance the firmness of the limiting strip 4 when restricting the fitting block 6. The opening of the through groove 5 enables the limiting strip 4 to release the restriction on the fitting block 6 and enhances the loading and unloading efficiency of the orthodontic appliance.
[0025] As a preferred embodiment, a plurality of groups of fitting grooves 9 are opened in parallel and equidistantly along the length direction at the lower end of the side surface of the outer dental brace 1. The plurality of groups of fitting grooves 9 are all rectangular structures, and the fitting grooves 9 and the moving groove 8 together form a string-shaped structure.
[0026] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the dimensions of the fitting groove 9 and the fitting block 6 are adapted to each other, which can assist in enhancing the firmness after the assembly between the outer dental brace 1 and the inner dental brace 2. Moreover, the fitting groove 9 and the moving groove 8 are communicated, enabling the limiting strip 4 to smoothly restrict the fitting block 6.

At the same time, the screw part of the adjusting bolt 7 is screwed to the screw groove 10 opened on the end surface of the limiting strip 4.
[0028] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 3 , the setting of the movable groove enables the adjusting bolt 7 not to be directly exposed in the patient's oral cavity, thereby effectively reducing the probability of discomfort in the patient's oral cavity due to the adjusting bolt 7. At the same time, the dimensions of the adjusting bolt 7 and the movable groove are adapted to each other, so the adjusting bolt 7 can only rotate within the movable groove, and thus the adjusting bolt 7 can drive the screwed limiting strip 4 to move correspondingly within the moving groove 8.
[0029] As a preferred embodiment, the cross-section of the inner dental appliance 2 is in an L-shaped structure. The upper end of the outer side surface of the inner dental appliance 2 is in an inclined surface structure. The engaging block 6 fixedly connected to the side surface of the inner dental appliance 2 is in a rectangular structure. At the same time, the cross-section of the engaging block 6 is in an L-shaped structure, and the sizes of the engaging block 6 and the engaging groove 9 are adapted to each other.
[0030] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 , the setting of the inclined surface of the inner dental appliance 2 can reduce the discomfort inside the patient's oral cavity. Moreover, the structure setting of the engaging block 6 enables the engaging block 6 to be fixedly connected to the engaging groove 9 through the limiting strip 4, thereby improving the assembly and disassembly efficiency of the outer dental appliance 1 and the inner dental appliance 2, and facilitating the improvement of the cleaning efficiency of the alveolar ridge 3 by the patient.
[0031] Through the cooperation of the adjusting bolt 7, the limiting strip 4 and the engaging block 6, the outer dental appliance 1 and the inner dental appliance 2 of the oral tooth aligner of the present utility model can be conveniently assembled and disassembled, and then the cleaning effect of the oral tooth aligner can be effectively improved, and the probability of the patient having health problems due to the oral tooth aligner can be reduced.
