Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of tooth orthodontics, and particularly relates to a tooth correction device. Background Art
[0002] Teeth are the hardest organs in the human body. In addition to performing functions such as cutting and chewing, they also play a role in maintaining facial appearance and assisting pronunciation. Teeth can be divided into four types: incisors, canines, premolars, and molars. Each tooth consists of a crown exposed outside the alveolar bone, a root growing in the alveolar bone, and a neck between the crown and the root. The main component of teeth is dentin, which is covered with enamel and cementum. Teeth are affected by various external environments during their growth, which makes the arrangement of teeth not neat and crooked. In order to solve this problem, teeth are often corrected. Since the force and angle of the correction wire need to be adjusted many times during the correction process, the existing metal brackets and arch wires are not convenient to disassemble and install, which affects the comfort and convenience of patients' correction. Utility Model Content
[0003] Therefore, the utility model aims to solve the problem in the prior art that metal brackets and arch wires are inconvenient to disassemble and install.
[0004] To this end, the technical solution adopted is that the utility model provides a dental correction device, including: a base, a bracket body is provided on the base, an archwire slot is provided on the upper end of the bracket body, a main archwire is provided in the archwire slot, a first bracket wing and a second bracket wing are respectively provided on both sides of the archwire slot on the bracket body, an auxiliary arch tube is provided on the first bracket wing, a clamping slot is provided on the first bracket wing, a slide slot is provided on the second bracket wing, a lock cover is slidably connected to the slide slot, and one end of the lock cover is clamped in the clamping slot.
[0005] Preferably, limiting ridges are provided on both sides of the lock cover.
[0006] Preferably, the bottom end of the base is provided with a concave arc surface.
[0007] Preferably, an inclined surface is provided at the upper end of the first bracket wing.
[0008] Preferably, edges of the base, the bracket body, the first bracket wing and the second bracket wing are rounded.
[0009] Preferably, a groove is provided on the outer side of the second bracket wing below the locking cover.
[0010] The technical solution of the utility model has the following advantages: when the main arch wire needs to be adjusted, the locking cover slides away from the slot, and after adjusting the strength and angle of the main arch wire, the locking cover is pushed to fix the main arch wire to prevent it from moving out of the arch wire slot. The main arch wire is easy to install and disassemble, which improves the comfort and convenience of patients in correcting their teeth.

[0023] Example 1
[0024] The utility model provides a tooth correction device, such as Figure 1-2 As shown, it includes: a base 1, a bracket body 2 is provided on the base 1, and an archwire slot 3 is provided at the upper end of the bracket body 2. A main archwire 4 is provided in the archwire slot 3. The main archwire 4 has a rectangular cross-section and is mainly responsible for transmitting correction force, controlling the three-dimensional movement of the teeth, and providing fixation and stability. The bracket body 2 is provided with a first bracket wing 5 and a second bracket wing 6 on either side of the archwire slot 3. The first bracket wing 5 is provided with an auxiliary arch tube 7. The auxiliary arch tube 7 can pass through the auxiliary archwire to adjust the inclination of the teeth, close the gaps between the teeth, or adjust the occlusion relationship, helping to maintain the stability of the teeth and prevent them from moving in an inappropriate direction. The first bracket wing 5 is provided with a slot 8, and the second bracket wing 6 is provided with a slide 9. A lock cover 10 is slidably connected to the slide 9, and one end of the lock cover 10 is locked in the slot 8. Limiting ridges 11 are provided on both sides of the lock cover 10 to prevent the lock cover 10 from moving out of the slide 9. The bottom end of the base 1 is provided with a concave curved surface 12 to better conform to the outer wall of the tooth and adhere more securely. The upper end of the first bracket wing 5 is provided with an inclined surface 13 to reduce damage to the oral mucosa. The edges of the base 1, bracket body 2, first bracket wing 5, and second bracket wing 6 are rounded to reduce friction on the oral mucosa and improve correction comfort. The outer side of the second bracket wing 6 is provided below the locking cover 10 with a groove 14, which facilitates the insertion of pliers into the groove 14, the gripping of the locking cover 10, and the removal of the groove 14.
[0025] The beneficial technical effects of the above technical solution are: after cleaning the patient's teeth, apply adhesive on the base 1, and then stick it on the central incisor, lateral incisor or canine. The main arch wire and the auxiliary arch wire pass through the arch wire slot 3 and the auxiliary arch tube 7 respectively. The locking cover 10 slides along the slide slot 9. One end of the locking cover 10 is installed in the card slot 8 to lock the main arch wire, making the main arch wire more firmly fixed. When the main arch wire needs to be adjusted, the locking cover 10 slides away from the card slot 8. After adjusting the strength and angle of the main arch wire, the locking cover is pushed to fix the main arch wire to prevent the main arch wire from moving out of the arch wire slot. The main arch wire is easy to install and disassemble, which improves the comfort and convenience of patients in correcting their teeth.
[0026] Example 2
[0027] An orthodontic appliance for use on premolars, such as Figure 3 As shown, it includes: a base 1, a bracket body 2 is provided on the base 1, an archwire slot 3 is provided at the upper end of the bracket body 2, a main archwire 4 is provided in the archwire slot 3, a first bracket wing 5 and a second bracket wing 6 are respectively provided on both sides of the archwire slot 3 on the bracket body 2, and an auxiliary arch tube 7 is provided on the first bracket wing 5.
[0028] The beneficial technical effects of the above technical solution are: since the front teeth require less adjustment, the second bracket wing 6 adopts a smaller size, the locking cover is removed, the volume of the correction device is reduced, the damage to the patient's oral lining is reduced, and the cost is saved.
[0029] Example 3
[0030] An orthodontic appliance for use on posterior molars, such as Figure 4 As shown, it includes: a base 1, a bracket body 2 is provided on the base 1, an archwire slot 3 is provided at the upper end of the bracket body 2, a main archwire 4 is provided in the archwire slot 3, a first bracket wing 5 and a second bracket wing 6 are respectively provided on both sides of the archwire slot 3 on the bracket body 2, and an auxiliary arch tube 7 is provided on the first bracket wing 5.
[0031] The beneficial technical effects of the above technical solution are as follows: since it is close to the gum root, the size of the first bracket wing 5 is reduced, reducing damage to the gum root; the second bracket wing 6 has a longer transverse dimension so as to provide good support for the main arch wire 4, making the main arch wire 4 more securely fixed.
[0032] Obviously, those skilled in the art may make various modifications and variations to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Thus, if such modifications and variations fall within the scope of the claims of the present invention and their equivalents, the present invention is intended to include such modifications and variations.
