Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of temporary occlusal pads, specifically a temporary occlusal pad for invisible orthodontic appliances. Background Technology

[0002] A temporary occlusal splint is a dental product used to temporarily adjust the bite relationship. It is usually made of soft, elastic material and can help adjust the bite relationship between teeth, reduce pressure between teeth, relieve toothache and tension in the jaw muscles. Temporary occlusal splints are suitable for treating discomfort before and after orthodontic treatment, relieving discomfort caused by trismus, and can also be used to reduce pain and discomfort caused by temporomandibular joint disorder. By wearing a temporary occlusal splint correctly, discomfort caused by tooth movement can be reduced, the orthodontic process can be accelerated, and the treatment effect can be improved.

[0003] In invisible orthodontic treatment, when there is individual tooth crossbite or occlusal interference, it is usually necessary to open the bite. However, the traditional way to open the bite is to place a fixed occlusal pad on the individual tooth. This occlusal pad will make it very difficult for the patient to chew and affect the user's comfort, thus affecting the orthodontic effect. Therefore, we have proposed a temporary occlusal pad for invisible orthodontic appliances. Utility Model Content
