Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of dental medical instruments, more specifically to a broken instrument taking out lasso device in root canal. BACKGROUND

[0002] Root canal treatment is one of the most common operations in stomatology. During the root canal treatment, the pulp needle is used to pull out the dental pulp, the root canal file (manual stainless steel root canal file or machine nickel-titanium file) is used to enter the root canal to remove the infected substances in the root canal, and the root canal space is expanded to prepare for the subsequent use of root canal irrigants for root canal disinfection and the use of root filling paste and gutta-percha point root canal filling. Due to improper use or metal fatigue, sometimes the instrument will break in the root canal. At this time, in order to not affect the subsequent root canal treatment, it may be necessary to try to remove the broken instrument in the root canal. The usual method is to use an ultrasonic working tip under a microscope to vibrate counterclockwise around the exposed instrument break end to shake off the broken instrument, but this method is not effective for the broken instrument that is stuck tightly and long, and may not be able to be removed, or even may be broken again and pushed out of the root tip. In view of this problem, the existing broken instrument taking out device technical solutions are mainly divided into "sleeve-drill", "lasso" and "micro clamp", among which the "sleeve-drill" scheme needs to prepare a series of sleeves and drills of different sizes for broken instruments of different sizes. Since the sleeve needs to be thicker than the broken instrument, the sleeve blocks the line of sight under the microscope when the instrument is taken out, resulting in a low success rate. The "micro clamp" scheme has limited clamping force due to the small size of the clamp head, and is not suitable for taking out the broken instrument that is stuck tightly. The existing "lasso" technical solution has the advantages of good operation field of view and large clamping force, but has the problems of complex device structure and complex and time-consuming installation and replacement of the lasso wire. For example, the invention with the announcement number CN15105230B has a sleeve and a lasso wire fixed by lock nuts, and the sleeve seat, fixed mounting seat, return spring and push transmission block need to be installed in sequence when installing the adjustable installation assembly, so the lasso installation and replacement is time-consuming.
