Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical auxiliary equipment, in particular to a fixing device that prevents patients from accidentally inhaling loose teeth that fall out. Background Art

[0002] Comatose patients often need to be immediately checked for loose teeth upon admission to the hospital. These loose teeth must be effectively secured to prevent them from falling out and being accidentally inhaled into the trachea, potentially leading to suffocation. Furthermore, for intubated patients, the potential for loose teeth to fall out must be assessed before intubation, and any loose teeth must be secured to prevent them from being dislodged during the intubation procedure. Therefore, effective securing of loose teeth is essential for both comatose patients and those requiring intubation.

[0003] The current clinical method for fixing loose teeth is to use sutures to loop around the roots of the loose teeth, tie the movable teeth, and stick the tail end of the sutures to the patient's face with white tape. However, wearing it for a long time can easily cause the tape to loosen, and it can also easily cause the loose teeth to fall off during the process of changing body positions, causing secondary damage to the patient. CN114733026A discloses a stabilizing device suitable for loose teeth of patients with endotracheal intubation. The dental brace bags are respectively covered on the upper and lower rows of teeth of the patient. After that, the dental brace bags can be inflated using an air injection device until the dental brace bags are stably wrapped around the patient's teeth. However, this fixing device cannot achieve targeted fixation of loose teeth, and the setting of the double-row air bags cannot well guarantee the stability of tooth fixation.

[0004] Therefore, still need to develop a kind of device that can fix patient's loose tooth, to prevent the loose tooth from falling off and being sucked away. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to overcome the defect of the prior art that loose teeth cannot be fixed specifically and to provide a fixing device for preventing patients from accidentally inhaling loose teeth that fall out.

[0006] The purpose of the utility model can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0007] A fixing device for preventing a patient's loose teeth from falling out and being accidentally inhaled, comprising at least one elastic tooth-covering component capable of wrapping the loose teeth, wherein the elastic tooth-covering component is provided with a regular mesh structure;

[0008] When the number of the elastic tooth-capping assembly is one, a connecting strip is provided on one side of the elastic tooth-capping assembly, and the connecting strip is connected to an extraoral fixing ring that can be fixed outside the mouth;

[0009] When the number of the elastic tooth-capping components is greater than one, connecting strips are provided between adjacent elastic tooth-capping components, wherein at least one of the connecting strips is connected to an extraoral fixing ring.

[0010] Furthermore, the top of the elastic tooth-cap assembly is an arc-shaped surface.

[0011] Furthermore, the elastic tooth-cap assembly is made of rubber, and the overall size of the elastic tooth-cap assembly in a natural state is smaller than the size of the loose teeth.

[0012] Furthermore, the network structure includes a plurality of regularly arranged hollow structures.

[0013] Furthermore, the shape of the hollow structure includes one or more of a triangle, a quadrilateral or a circle.

[0014] Furthermore, the length of the connecting strip is shorter than the length of the elastic tooth-bearing assembly.

[0015] Furthermore, the number of the elastic brace components is 1-5.

[0016] Furthermore, the extraoral fixing ring includes an elastic rope connected to the connecting strip and a fixing ring arranged at the top of the elastic rope.

[0017] Furthermore, the length of the elastic rope is 10-12 cm.

[0018] Furthermore, the diameter of the fixing ring is 2-3 cm.

[0019] Furthermore, the fixing ring is sleeved on the patient's ear or buckled on the patient's clothing to achieve stable fixation.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0021] (1) The fixing device of the present invention can specifically wrap and fix the patient's loose teeth by providing a plurality of independent elastic tooth-covering components, so as to prevent the loose teeth of the patient from falling off and being aspirated in a coma or endotracheally intubated patient.

[0022] (2) The number of elastic tooth-capping components of the present invention has a large optional range, which can meet the needs of most clinical patients and can be flexibly selected according to the number of loose teeth.

[0023] (3) The elastic brace assembly of the present invention has a plurality of regularly arranged mesh structures, and the hollowed-out parts are convenient for medical staff to observe. The mesh structure can make loose teeth stuck on the mesh structure, increase the fixing points, and make the elastic brace assembly not easy to fall off when worn.

[0024] (4) The elastic brace components of the present invention are provided with shearable connecting strips, and the number of elastic brace components can be adjusted by shearing the connecting strips. In addition, if the tension of the elastic brace components is too high, the pressure on the teeth can be appropriately reduced by shearing off part of the mesh structure.

[0025] (5) The fixing device of the present invention is easy to operate, low in cost, and the process can be standardized, so that bedside medical staff can directly perform loose tooth fixing operations to prevent loose teeth from falling off and endangering the patient's life.

When there are more than one elastic tooth-jointing component 1, connecting strips 2 are provided between adjacent elastic tooth-jointing components 1, and at least one of the connecting strips 2 is connected to an extraoral fixing ring 3.

[0036] Example 2:

[0037] The present embodiment provides a fixing device for preventing loose teeth from falling out and being accidentally inhaled by the patient, which includes at least one elastic brace assembly 1 that can wrap around the loose teeth. A regular mesh structure 11 is provided on the elastic brace assembly 1 to facilitate medical staff to observe the patient's dental condition. When the number of elastic brace assembly 1 is one, a connecting strip 2 is provided on one side of the elastic brace assembly 1, and the connecting strip 2 is connected to an extraoral fixing ring 3 that can be fixed outside the mouth. When the number of elastic brace assembly 1 is greater than one, connecting strips 2 are provided between adjacent elastic brace assemblies 1, and at least one of the connecting strips 2 is connected to an extraoral fixing ring 3.

[0038] The top of the elastic brace assembly 1 of this embodiment is an arc-shaped surface to conform to the natural shape of the top of the loose tooth.
