Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of oral medical device technology, and in particular to an anti-abrasion brace. Background Technology

[0002] Bruxism refers to the unconscious grinding or clenching of teeth during sleep. Because this grinding often produces a "grinding" sound, it's commonly called "teeth grinding," and because it mostly occurs at night, it's also known as "nocturnal bruxism." Patients are often unaware of this, relying on others to inform them. The condition gradually worsens over time, creating a long-term, vicious cycle. Current anti-bruxism braces do not specifically limit the movement of the incisors; patients grind their molars more extensively at the second limiting point during nighttime bruxism, resulting in poor effectiveness in preventing bruxism.

[0003] Therefore, there is a need to provide a dental brace to prevent teeth grinding and solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] This invention provides an anti-teeth-grinding brace that solves the problem that existing anti-teeth-grinding braces do not limit the front teeth area, resulting in excessive grinding of the back molars at the second limiting part during nighttime teeth grinding, thus failing to effectively prevent teeth grinding.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows: an anti-grinding brace, comprising a first limiting part for limiting the incisors and a second limiting part connected to both ends of the first limiting part for preventing grinding of the posterior molar region. The first limiting part includes a fixing block, a first slot located on the upper side of the fixing block for connecting the upper incisors, and a second slot located on the lower side of the fixing block for connecting the lower incisors.

[0006] In this invention, the first card slot and the second card slot are misaligned.

[0007] In this invention, the fixing block is further provided with a first baffle to prevent the tongue from extending into the space between the first slot and the second slot, and the second slot is located between the first slot and the first baffle.

[0008] In this invention, the fixing block is further provided with a second baffle that fits against the lip.

[0009] In this invention, both the first card slot and the second card slot are V-shaped structures.

[0010] In this invention, the second limiting part includes a connecting rod connected to the fixing block and a fixing plate connected to the connecting rod for fitting the maxillary posterior molar region and the mandibular posterior molar region.

[0011] In this invention, a third baffle is provided on the side of the fixing plate near the cheek, which fits against the inner side of the cheek, and the third baffle is arranged perpendicularly to the fixing plate.

[0012] In this invention, both sides of the fixing plate are provided with grooves extending along the length direction of the fixing plate.

[0013] In this invention, the anti-abrasion dental brace is U-shaped.

[0014] In this invention, the anti-abrasion dental brace is made of soft rubber.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The anti-teeth grinding brace of this utility model connects the posterior molar area to the second limiting part, the upper incisors are connected to the first slot, and the lower incisors are connected to the second slot. When teeth grinding occurs at night, the limiting effect of the first slot on the upper incisors and the limiting effect of the second slot on the lower incisors reduces the range of movement of the posterior molar area when rubbing against the second limiting part, thereby making the brace more effective in preventing teeth grinding.

[0029] The terms "first" and "second" in this utility model are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance, nor as a restriction on the order of events.

[0030] This utility model provides an anti-grinding brace, comprising a first limiting part 11 for limiting the incisors and second limiting parts 12 respectively connected to both ends of the first limiting part 11 to prevent grinding of the posterior molars. The first limiting part 11 includes a fixing block, a first slot 111 located on the upper side of the fixing block for connecting the upper incisors, and a second slot 112 located on the lower side of the fixing block for connecting the lower incisors. The first limiting part 11 is used to limit the incisors, and the second limiting part 12 is used to limit the posterior molars. When worn... When using the anti-bruxism brace, the brace is worn inside the mouth, and the second limiting parts 12 at both ends of the first limiting part 11 are placed in the posterior molar region. The upper incisors are connected in the first slot 111, and the lower incisors are connected in the second slot 112. When grinding teeth at night, the first slot 111 limits the upper incisors, the second slot 112 limits the lower incisors, and the second limiting part 12 limits the posterior molar region, thereby effectively reducing the range of movement during grinding and improving the anti-bruxism effect.

[0031] Please refer to Figure 4 The first slot 111 and the second slot 112 are offset. The second slot 112 is located on the side of the fixing block near the second limiting part 12. The offset first slot 111 and the second slot 112 can make the upper incisors and lower incisors comfortably connected in the fixing block, so that the upper incisors and lower incisors can be worn on the braces in a relaxed state.

[0032] The fixing block is also provided with a first baffle 113 to prevent the tongue from entering between the first slot 111 and the second slot 112. The second slot 112 is located between the first slot 111 and the first baffle 113. When the braces are worn in the mouth, such as when grinding teeth at night, the first baffle 113 can prevent the tongue from moving towards the upper incisors and lower incisors. At the same time, the upper incisors are connected in the first slot 111 and the lower incisors are connected in the second slot 112. When grinding teeth, the first baffle 113 can effectively prevent the tongue from moving towards the first slot 111 and the second slot 112.

[0033] The fixing block is also provided with a second baffle 114 that fits against the lips. The second baffle 114 is used to fit against the lips. When the braces are worn in the mouth, the second baffle 114 connects between the front teeth area and the lips, which can effectively prevent the braces from separating from the mouth and make the braces stably connected in the human mouth, thereby further ensuring that the braces can play an anti-teeth grinding effect.

[0034] Both the first slot 111 and the second slot 112 have a V-shaped structure. The V-shaped structure of the first slot 111 and the second slot 112 allows the upper incisors to be comfortably connected in the first slot 111 and the lower incisors to be comfortably connected in the second slot 112, avoiding any discomfort caused by the upper incisors being connected in the first slot 111 and the lower incisors being connected in the second slot 112.

[0035] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The second limiting part 12 includes a connecting rod 121 connected to the fixing block and a fixing plate 122 connected to the connecting rod 121 for fitting the maxillary posterior molar region and the mandibular posterior molar region. The connecting rod 121 is used to extend the length of the fixing plate 122 so that the fixing plate 122 can be located in the posterior molar region to limit the posterior molar region.

[0036] A third baffle 123 is also provided on the side of the fixing plate 122 near the cheek, which fits against the inner side of the cheek. The third baffle 123 is set perpendicular to the fixing plate 122. The third baffle 123 is used to fit against the inner side of the cheek. After the fixing plate 122 fits against the maxillary molar area and the mandibular molar area, the third baffle 123 is used to increase the contact area with the inner side of the cheek. On the one hand, it can effectively prevent the fixing plate 122 from moving towards the cheek. On the other hand, the third baffle 123 can effectively prevent the fixing plate 122 from bending towards the tongue, so that the fixing plate 122 is stably connected to the teeth in the posterior molar area.

[0037] Both sides of the fixing plate 122 are provided with grooves 1221 extending along the length of the fixing plate 122. The grooves 1221 are used to prevent the teeth in the posterior molar area from slipping on the fixing plate 122, thereby further improving the anti-grinding effect.

[0038] The anti-abrasion brace has a U-shaped structure. The first limiting part 11 and the second limiting part 12 of the U-shaped structure make it easy to wear the brace in the mouth.

[0039] The anti-teeth-grinding brace is made of soft rubber. When teeth are rubbed at night, the friction between the first limiting part 11 and the second limiting part 12 of the soft rubber material can prevent damage to the teeth, thereby avoiding damage caused by friction between teeth and between teeth and the brace.

[0040] In this embodiment, the soft adhesive material can be silicone, but is not limited to using only silicone.

[0041] Working principle:

[0042] When wearing braces, firstly, the second limiting part 12 is inserted into the oral cavity. Because the first limiting part 11 and the second limiting part 12 have a U-shaped structure, it is easy to insert the second limiting part 12 into the oral cavity. Continue inserting the second limiting part 12 into the oral cavity until the first limiting part 11 is located between the upper and lower incisors. Adjust the third baffle 123 between the posterior molar region and the cheek. The third baffle 123 prevents the fixing plate 122 from bending towards the protruding head and also prevents the fixing plate 122 from unfolding towards the cheek area. When the third baffle 123 is in contact with the connector, the fixing plate 122 is located between the upper and lower posterior molar regions. Further, connect the upper incisors to the first slot 111 and the lower incisors to the second slot 112. Because the first slot 111 and the second baffle 122 have a U-shaped structure, it is easy to insert the second limiting part 122 into the oral cavity. The two clasps 112 are offset, with the second clasp 112 located inside the first clasp 111. This allows the upper incisors to comfortably connect to the first clasp 111 and the lower incisors to comfortably connect to the second clasp 112. When the upper incisors are connected to the first clasp 111 and the lower incisors to the second clasp 112, the second baffle 114 is located between the lips and the incisors. The second baffle 114 can effectively prevent the braces from separating from the mouth. When the patient grinds their teeth at night, the first clasp 111 limits the upper incisors, and the second clasp 112 limits the lower incisors. When the patient rubs the fixation plate 122 in the posterior molar area, the limiting effect of the first clasp 111 and the second clasp 112 can also reduce the range of movement of the fixation plate 122 in the posterior molar area, thus making the braces more effective in preventing teeth grinding.

[0043] The preferred embodiment of the anti-brushing brace connects the posterior molar region to the second limiting part, the upper incisors are connected to the first slot, and the lower incisors are connected to the second slot. When bruising teeth at night, the first slot limits the upper incisors and the second slot limits the lower incisors, thereby reducing the range of movement of the posterior molar region when rubbing against the second limiting part, thus making the brace more effective in preventing teeth bruising.

[0044] In summary, although the present invention has been disclosed above with reference to preferred embodiments, the above preferred embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications and refinements without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention shall be determined by the scope defined in the claims.
