Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of oral instruments, in particular to a fixed bracket for depressing the second molar, and a depressing device adopting the fixed bracket. Background Art

[0002] In oral clinical practice, for the treatment of the elongation of maxillary molars caused by the long-term absence of teeth, orthodontic depression treatment is usually adopted. The traditional orthodontic depression treatment generally uses a bite plate or an implant anchorage screw to depress the elongation of the maxillary molars. If the bite plate is used, the foreign body sensation of the bite plate is strong, and the patient needs to cooperate with the frequent removal, wearing and cleaning, and the operation is rather troublesome; if the implant anchorage screw is used, due to the long implantation time, it is difficult to avoid the treatment risks of the breakage, loosening and falling off of the anchorage screw after implantation.

[0003] In view of the above situation, the existing orthodontic depression treatment uses a micro-implant anchorage screw to assist in depressing the elongated molars, but it is still an invasive treatment method. Due to the different bone densities of different patients, the success probability of the micro-implant anchorage screw is also different. Coupled with the fear of some patients of the micro-implant anchorage screw implantation surgery, it often leads to an increase in the difficulty of the treatment process. Therefore, how to solve the above problems is an urgent problem to be solved. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a fixed bracket and a depressing device for depressing the second molar, which are simple, efficient, safe and non-invasive.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the fixed bracket for depressing the second molar provided by the utility model includes a retention base plate installed on the abutment tooth non-invasively, and a traction hook with a cross-section of U-shaped is arranged on the retention base plate and faces the opposite direction of the tooth occlusal surface.

[0006] For the above-mentioned fixed bracket for depressing the second molar, the retention base plate and the traction hook are detachably connected, and different lengths of the traction hook can be replaced for the retention base plate according to actual needs; of course, the retention base plate and the traction hook can also be fixedly connected, but the required length of the traction hook needs to be preset in advance.

[0007] The "non-invasive" described in the utility model means that it does not involve the destruction of the body tissue structure.

[0008] The abutment tooth on which the retention base plate of the utility model is installed needs to have a sound opposing tooth. The opposing tooth refers to the mandibular abutment tooth corresponding to the position of the maxillary abutment tooth to ensure the depressing effect of the fixed bracket on the second molar.

[0009] For the above-mentioned fixed bracket for depressing the second molar, a connecting arm is arranged between the retention base plate and the traction hook, and the connecting arm extends obliquely upward to the rear of the same side of the abutment tooth.

[0010] For the above-mentioned fixed bracket for depressing the second molar, the connecting arm maintains a parallel distance of at least 0.5 mm from the gingiva of the abutment tooth.

[0011] For the above-mentioned fixed bracket for depressing the second molar, one end of the connecting arm is connected to the retention base plate, and the other end is connected to the traction hook. The connecting corner of the connecting arm has an arc transition.

[0012] For the above-mentioned fixed bracket for depressing the second molar, the retention base plate is made by 3D stereolithography or machine casting; if the retention base plate is made by 3D stereolithography, a preset mesh surface is added to the surface in contact with the abutment tooth to increase the friction for facilitating the bonding between the abutment tooth and the retention base plate; if the retention base plate is made by machine casting, since the surface in contact with the abutment tooth is smooth, bonding holes can be provided on the retention base plate, and the bonding structure will be more reliable when the bonding material overflows from the bonding holes.

[0013] The fixed bracket for depressing the second molar of the present utility model adopts the above technical solution. By non-invasively installing the retention base plate at the lingual or buccal position of the abutment tooth, the retention base plate fixes the traction rope or chain elastic band through the U-shaped traction hook without falling off, so as to achieve the technical purpose of depressing the molar.

[0014] Furthermore, a depressing device adopting the above fixed bracket includes a first fixed bracket corresponding to the buccal position of the abutment tooth and a second fixed bracket corresponding to the lingual position of the abutment tooth. The first retention base plate on the first fixed bracket and the second retention base plate on the second fixed bracket are respectively non-invasively installed at the buccal position and the lingual position of the abutment tooth.

[0015] The above-mentioned depressing device further includes at least one lingual button non-invasively installed on the tooth. The first traction hook of the first fixed bracket and the second traction hook of the second fixed bracket are respectively connected to the lingual button through elastic members.

[0016] The elastic member can be a chain elastic band or other traction lines made of elastic materials such as elastic threads.

[0017] The lingual button can be adhesively fixed between the teeth, can be adhesively fixed at the lingual or buccal position of the tooth, or can be adhesively fixed between the teeth, at the lingual position and the buccal position of the tooth respectively.

[0018] The first traction hook of the first fixed bracket and the second traction hook of the second fixed bracket are connected to the lingual button through elastic threads to achieve the purpose of applying force.

[0019] For the above-mentioned depressing device, the first fixed bracket and the second fixed bracket are installed at the same height at the buccal position and the lingual position of the abutment tooth respectively.

[0020] For the above-mentioned intrusion device, the second fixing bracket is installed on the buccal side of the abutment tooth at a position not higher than the cusp of the dental cavity.

[0021] The intrusion device of the present utility model adopts the above technical solution. By non-invasively installing the first retention base plate and the second retention base plate on the buccal side position and the lingual side position of the abutment tooth respectively, and applying vertical forces simultaneously by the first retention base plate on the buccal side and the second retention base plate on the lingual side, the technical purpose of intrusion can be achieved with a light force in a short time, greatly saving the patient's follow-up visit time and cost. It not only has a small sense of foreign body, but also can avoid implanting anchorage pins in the patient's oral cavity, thus achieving the technical effect of non-invasive and comfortable intrusion of the molar teeth.
