Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of braces storage, in particular to a braces storage box. Background Art

[0002] Invisible braces, particularly bracketless ones customized using 3D printing technology, are increasingly popular with patients due to their transparent aesthetic, comfortable fit, and easy cleaning. These braces require patients to change braces at different stages according to a specific schedule to achieve gradual correction. However, the success of this treatment depends heavily on patient compliance, requiring them to change braces on time and wear them correctly.

[0003] In the daily management of orthodontic treatment, the storage and cleaning of braces have become practical problems faced by patients. Braces storage boxes on the market generally have the following shortcomings:

[0004] Many storage boxes only provide basic storage functions and fail to consider the need to help patients manage their braces. Patients may need to use electronic calendars or mobile phone reminders to track brace replacement schedules, which not only increases management complexity but also hinders the development of self-management skills.

[0005] 2. Although some storage boxes with cleaning functions exist on the market, these products are often bulky and inconvenient for patients to carry when traveling. In addition, these products usually do not properly separate wet and dry areas, resulting in a humid environment inside the storage box, which is prone to bacterial growth.

[0006] 3. For adolescent patients who are in the growth and development period, they may be restricted from using electronic devices such as smartphones. Existing braces storage boxes rarely take this special need into consideration and do not provide intuitive and simple time recording and reminder functions.

[0007] Cleaning and maintaining braces is crucial to effective treatment. However, traditional brace storage box designs often overlook the importance of regular cleaning and disinfection, lacking the necessary cleaning tools and guidance, which can lead to bacterial accumulation and cross-infection.

[0008] Some storage boxes are overly complex or not stable enough in design, which cannot effectively protect the braces from damage and is not convenient for patients to use on a daily basis.

[0009] Therefore, an ideal braces storage box should have the following features: it can help patients effectively manage the correction cycle, it is easy to carry and has an integrated cleaning function, it is humane and easy to operate, it ensures the cleanliness and hygiene of the braces, and it has a reasonable structural design.
