Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of oral orthodontic education, and more specifically, to an oral orthodontic fixed treatment risk education model. Background Art

[0002] Fixed appliance technology is one of the commonly used oral correction technologies. It is based on the traditional bracket and archwire correction principle. Metal or ceramic brackets are bonded to each tooth with adhesives, and orthodontic archwires are fixed to the brackets to apply appropriate external force to the teeth. The resilience of the orthodontic archwire is used to gradually move the teeth to the appropriate position, thereby correcting malocclusion and restoring the normal arrangement and occlusion of the teeth. However, there are certain risks in the process of fixed orthodontic treatment. Common symptoms are oral mucosal ulcers caused by scraping of the braces, and more serious complications include root resorption, alveolar bone resorption and gingival recession. Inadequate oral hygiene can also lead to caries. Therefore, during the 2-3 year treatment cycle of fixed orthodontic treatment, patients need to follow the doctor's advice to maintain good oral hygiene and eating habits after treatment, and have regular follow-up visits to ensure the safety and treatment effect of orthodontic treatment.

[0003] The inventor found in clinical practice that when medical staff give health education to patients after they have installed labial fixed braces, if they want to explain in detail the cleaning of teeth, maintenance of orthodontic devices, and the judgment and treatment of orthodontic-related risks, etc., using conventional paper materials and existing common dental models, the lecture time will be more than 30 minutes. Due to the limitation of lecture tools and the limited knowledge of patients, patients cannot fully understand the specific manifestations and preventive measures of fixed braces risks, which seriously affects the effect of patients' daily maintenance and increases patients' time and medical costs. Therefore, it is better to use model scenario simulation demonstrations to patients, so that patients can have a more intuitive understanding of the braces, improve patients' understanding ability, and greatly shorten the lecture time.

[0004] The Chinese utility model patent with application number 202323210514.3 discloses a multifunctional health education model for oral orthodontics, which is equipped with orthodontic fixed appliances and orthodontic invisible appliances, and is equipped with multiple different types of toothbrushes. It can also hold educational supplies and is suitable for health education after orthodontic fixed correction and orthodontic invisible correction. However, the educational model only has correction devices and brushing instructions, and does not display the aforementioned fixed correction risk types. Medical staff still need to spend energy to explain verbally, and patients cannot learn relevant knowledge independently through the educational model. There is currently a lack of tooth models for displaying the aforementioned fixed correction risk types. In addition, even if patients have access to such tooth models and lecture audio, it is difficult to connect the professional terms in the lecture audio with the specific location of the tooth model, resulting in difficulty in understanding. Utility Model Content

[0005] The present invention aims to overcome at least one of the deficiencies of the above-mentioned existing technologies and provide an oral orthodontic fixed appliance risk education model for clearly and specifically demonstrating the various risk types of fixed appliances, and cooperating with human explanations to facilitate patients' understanding of relevant knowledge.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by the utility model is to provide an oral orthodontic fixed correction risk education model, including:

[0007] Maxillary model, with a row of upper teeth on the lower edge of the maxillary model;

[0008] A mandibular model, wherein a row of lower teeth is provided on the upper edge of the mandibular model, and the rear side of the maxillary model is rotatably connected to the rear side of the mandibular model;

[0009] orthodontic metal fixed appliances fixed to the upper and lower jaw models and the labial sides of the upper and lower teeth;

[0010] A player, used for playing educational audio, is provided on the maxillary model and / or the mandibular model;

[0011] A prompt light, used to indicate the audio playback status and the indicated tooth, is located on the gum surface or inside the indicated tooth and corresponds one-to-one with the indicated tooth;

[0012] Buttons, used to turn on and off the player and the prompt light, are located on the maxillary model;

[0013] The battery and the control module are electrically connected to the player and the prompt light.

[0014] This design builds on the existing tooth and fixed appliance model by incorporating buttons and indicator lights that correspond to the indicated teeth. By pressing the button next to the tooth, the patient can see the light's position to understand the dental condition or damaged fixed appliance, and then learn relevant information through audio education. This solution enables patient-directed interactive learning, saving medical staff time and effort and reducing the difficulty for patients to understand.

[0015] Furthermore, the orthodontic metal fixed appliance includes brackets, buccal tubes, archwires, and ligatures. The brackets and buccal tubes are mounted on the labial sides of the upper and lower teeth and connected by the archwires. The ligatures surround the buccal tubes and secure the brackets. This is used to demonstrate the structure of the orthodontic metal fixed appliance, making it easier for patients to observe and understand.

[0016] Furthermore, the bracket is slidably connected to the archwire to demonstrate one of the risks of fixed orthodontic treatment, namely bracket falling off, in which case the bracket leaves the tooth surface and can slide left and right on the archwire.

[0017] Furthermore, the bracket is rotatably connected to the tooth beneath it, and the tooth surface beneath it has spots or depressions around the bracket. This is used to demonstrate tooth demineralization, one of the risks of fixed orthodontic treatment. The rotatable connection between the bracket and the tooth beneath it allows medical staff to easily lift the bracket to reveal the specific characteristics of tooth demineralization, namely depressions or chalky spots on the tooth surface.

[0018] Furthermore, the archwire has a free end. This demonstrates one of the risks of fixed orthodontic treatment: archwire breakage, which can cause abnormal tooth movement. In this case, the archwire breaks between two brackets, causing the tooth at the break to deviate mesially or distally.

[0019] Furthermore, the free end of the archwire can lead to one of the risks of fixed orthodontic treatment: wire dislodgement, which can cause abnormal tooth movement or rubbing against the buccal mucosa, leading to ulcers. In this case, the archwire is located on the gingival side of the buccal tube, causing the tooth to elongate or the archwire to tilt and rub against the buccal mucosa, leading to ulcers.

[0020] Furthermore, the ligature wire has a free end, which is used to demonstrate one of the risks of fixed correction: the end of the ligature wire is tilted, rubbing the oral mucosa and causing ulcers.

[0021] Furthermore, the orthodontic fixed appliance risk education model also includes orthodontic protective wax, which covers the brackets, archwires, or ligatures. This is used to demonstrate oral ulcers, one of the risks of fixed appliance treatment, and their treatment. When oral mucosal ulcers are caused by excessively long archwire ends, sharp ligature ends, or friction from brackets, the discomfort can be alleviated by covering the corresponding friction areas with orthodontic protective wax.

[0022] Furthermore, the orthodontic metal fixed appliance also includes anchorage pins and elastic accessories. The anchorage pins are installed on both sides of the upper and lower mandibular models or between the upper and lower tooth roots. The anchorage pins and brackets are connected through the elastic accessories.

[0023] Furthermore, the gums around the anchor pins are red and swollen, which is used to illustrate one of the risks of fixed orthodontic treatment, that is, the gums around the anchor pins are red and swollen due to inadequate oral hygiene, and even the anchor pins fall off.

[0024] Furthermore, the oral orthodontic fixed appliance risk education model also includes a jaw pad, which is a dental material temporarily bonded to the maxillary surface of the teeth and is used to demonstrate occlusal interference, one of the risks of fixed appliance. That is, when there is occlusal interference, the brackets on the opposing tooth surface are easily bitten off when the teeth are in occlusal state. This situation can be avoided by bonding the jaw pad, and the jaw pad can be ground off after the occlusal interference is removed.

[0025] Furthermore, the orthodontic fixed appliance risk education model also includes a folding toothbrush connected to the maxillary model or the mandibular model. This facilitates medical staff to demonstrate how to brush teeth on the orthodontic fixed appliance risk education model. Correct brushing techniques are helpful in avoiding treatment risks.

[0026] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0027] The utility model provides an oral orthodontic fixed appliance risk education model. Based on the existing tooth and fixed appliance model, it not only adds multiple risk types such as fixed appliance damage and the oral discomfort, tooth deviation, tooth surface demineralization caused by it, but also sets buttons and prompt lights corresponding to the indicated teeth. The patient presses the button next to the tooth to understand the dental symptoms or the location of the damaged fixed appliance through the light indication, and through the educational audio played, it is easier to understand the relevant knowledge with the help of medical staff's explanation. This solution clearly and specifically demonstrates the multiple risk types of oral orthodontic fixed appliances, realizes the education method of patient autonomous interactive learning, saves the time and energy of medical staff, and reduces the difficulty of understanding for patients.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0033] The drawings in this utility model are for illustrative purposes only and are not to be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model. To better illustrate the following embodiments, some components in the drawings may be omitted, enlarged, or reduced in size, and do not represent the actual dimensions of the products. It is understandable to those skilled in the art that some well-known structures and their descriptions may be omitted from the drawings.

[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides an orthodontic fixed appliance risk education model, including:

[0035] The maxillary model 100 has a row of upper teeth 110 on its lower edge;

[0036] The mandibular model 200 has a row of lower teeth 210 on its upper edge. The rear side of the maxillary model 100 is rotatably connected to the rear side of the mandibular model 200 via a bracket 300.

[0037] An orthodontic metal fixed appliance 400 is fixed to the labial side of the upper teeth 110 and the lower teeth 210 of the upper and lower mandibular models;

[0038] The player 500 is used to play the educational audio and is provided on the maxillary model 100 and / or the mandibular model 200;

[0039] The prompt light 600 is used to indicate the audio playback status and the indicated tooth, and is located on the gum surface or inside the indicated tooth and corresponds one-to-one with the indicated tooth;

[0040] Button 700, used to turn on / off the player 500 and the prompt light 600, is provided on the maxillary model 100;

[0041] The battery and control module (not shown in the figure) are electrically connected to the player 500 and the indicator light 600 .

[0042] This design builds on the existing tooth and fixed appliance model by incorporating buttons 700 and indicator lights 600 that correspond to the indicated teeth. By pressing the button 700 next to the tooth, the patient can understand the dental condition or the location of the damaged fixed appliance through the light position, and learn related information through the audio education program. This solution enables patient-directed interactive learning, reduces patient comprehension difficulties, and saves medical staff time.

[0043] like Figure 2 As shown, the orthodontic metal fixed appliance 400 includes a bracket 410, a buccal tube 420, an arch wire 430 and a ligature wire 440. The bracket 410 and the buccal tube 420 are installed on the labial side of the upper teeth 110 and the lower teeth 210 and are connected to each other through the arch wire 430. Figure 3As shown, the ligature wire 440 surrounds the buccal tube 420 and fixes the bracket 410. It is used to show the structure of the orthodontic metal fixed appliance 400, which is convenient for patients to observe and understand.

[0044] like Figure 2 As shown in the tooth 45, the bracket 410 is slidably connected to the arch wire 430. The bracket 410 is used to illustrate one of the risks of fixed orthodontic treatment, that is, the bracket 410 is separated from the tooth surface and can slide left and right on the arch wire 430.

[0045] like Figure 2 As shown in tooth 13, the arch wire 430 has a free end, specifically the arch wire 430 is broken, which is one of the risks of fixed orthodontic treatment. At this time, the arch wire 430 is broken between tooth 13 and tooth 14, and the teeth at the broken part are easily deviated to the mesial or distal part.

[0046] like Figure 2 As shown in tooth 17, the arch wire 430 has a free end, specifically the arch wire 430 is detached from the buccal tube 420 of tooth 17, which is one of the risks of fixed orthodontic treatment. At this time, the end of the arch wire 430 is detached from the buccal tube 420 of tooth 17. Since the end of the arch wire 430 is sharp or too long, it is easy to rub the cheek mucosa and cause ulcers.

[0047] like Figure 3 As shown in teeth 23 to 26, the end of the ligature wire 440 is raised at tooth 23, which is one of the risks of fixed orthodontic treatment. Since the end of the ligature wire 440 is sharply raised, it is easy to rub the oral mucosa and cause ulcers.

[0048] like Figure 2 As shown in tooth 43, the oral orthodontic fixed appliance risk education model also includes orthodontic protective wax 450, which covers the bracket 410, archwire 430, or ligature 440. This is used to demonstrate oral ulcers, one of the risks of fixed orthodontic appliances, and their treatment. When the end of the archwire 430 is too long, the end of the ligature 440 is sharp, or the bracket 410 causes oral mucosal ulcers, the discomfort can be alleviated by covering the corresponding friction areas with orthodontic protective wax 450.

[0049] like Figure 2 As shown, the orthodontic metal fixed appliance 400 also includes an anchorage pin 460 and an elastic attachment 470 . The anchorage pin 460 is installed between the roots of the upper teeth 15 and 16 , and the anchorage pin 460 is connected to the bracket 410 of the tooth 13 via the elastic attachment 470 .

[0050] like Figure 2As shown, the gums around the anchor pin 460 are red and swollen, which is used to illustrate one of the risks of fixed orthodontic treatment, that is, the gums around the anchor pin 460 are red and swollen due to inadequate oral hygiene, and even the anchor pin 460 falls off.

[0051] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the orthodontic fixed appliance risk education model also includes a jaw pad 800. The jaw pad 800 is a dental material temporarily bonded to the tooth and jaw surface. It is used to demonstrate one of the risks of fixed appliance, occlusal interference, that is, it is easy to bite off the bracket 410 on the opposing tooth surface when the teeth are in occlusion. This can be avoided by bonding the jaw pad 800. The jaw pad 800 can be ground off after the occlusal interference is removed. The jaw pad 800 is movably connected to the tooth and jaw surface to facilitate medical staff to lift the jaw pad 800 to demonstrate that if the jaw pad 800 falls off, the occlusal interference cannot be eliminated and the bracket 410 on the opposing tooth surface will be bitten off.

[0052] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the bracket 410 is rotatably connected to the tooth 11, and the demineralized area 111 on the surface of the maxillary tooth 11, that is, a circle of spots or depressions on the surface of the tooth 11 surrounding the bracket 410, is displayed. This is used to demonstrate tooth surface demineralization, one of the risks of fixed orthodontic treatment. The bracket 410 is rotatably connected to the tooth 11 so that medical staff can lift the bracket 410 to reveal the specific characteristics of tooth surface demineralization, namely depressions or chalky spots on the tooth surface caused by long-term inadequate oral hygiene.

[0053] like Figure 1 As shown, the orthodontic fixed appliance risk education model also includes a folding toothbrush 900, which is connected to the maxillary model 100 or the mandibular model 200. This facilitates medical staff to demonstrate how to brush teeth on the orthodontic fixed appliance risk education model. The correct brushing method is helpful in avoiding the occurrence of treatment risks.

[0054] When used, the model can illustrate tooth structure, fixed appliance structure, fixed appliance risk types, and maintenance methods. Medical staff can use the model to explain the details, or use button 700 to trigger the model's lighting and playback of audio recordings, facilitating interactive learning for patients. Furthermore, medical staff can use the folding toothbrush 900 to explain and demonstrate the correct brushing techniques to reduce the risks of fixed appliances.

[0055] This embodiment provides an orthodontic fixed appliance risk education model. Based on the existing tooth and fixed appliance model, it not only adds multiple risk types such as fixed appliance damage and the oral discomfort, tooth deviation, tooth surface demineralization caused by it, but also provides a button 700 and a prompt light 600 that correspond to the indicated teeth. The patient presses the button 700 next to the tooth to understand the dental symptoms or the location of the damaged fixed appliance through the light indication, and learns relevant knowledge through the played educational audio. This solution clearly and specifically demonstrates the multiple risk types of orthodontic fixed appliances, realizes the education method of patient autonomous interactive learning, reduces the difficulty of understanding for patients, and saves the time cost of medical staff.

[0056] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present invention are merely examples for the purpose of clearly illustrating the technical solution of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the specific implementation methods of the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the claims of the present invention shall be included within the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
