Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of orthodontic technology, specifically an orthodontic fixation device. Background Technology

[0002] Orthodontics is an important branch of dentistry, focusing on the correction of dentofacial deformities and malocclusions. Fixed orthodontic appliances are a commonly used type of orthodontic appliance in orthodontic treatment. By applying gentle and sustained corrective forces to the teeth, they guide the teeth to move slowly within the alveolar bone, reshaping the alignment and occlusion of the teeth.

[0003] For example, patent CN208974153U discloses an orthodontic fixing device, including a buccal sleeve, a connecting block, an elastic chain, and a hook. The buccal sleeve has a connecting buckle on its inner side, a fixing bolt on the connecting buckle, and a locking nut on the fixing bolt. The buccal sleeve has a fixing rib on its outer side, with the connecting block at one end of the fixing rib. The connecting block has the elastic chain, an archwire on the elastic chain, and the hook on the archwire. A fixing plate is positioned between the archwires, and a locking block is positioned on the fixing plate. A rubber band groove is provided between the fixing plate and the locking block, and a fixing groove is provided between the locking blocks. The advantages are: this orthodontic fixing device uses a buccal sleeve for fixation, is easy to install, does not cause any damage to the oral cavity, and the number and position of the fixing plates can be set as needed, making it suitable for the general population.

[0004] However, the device lacks a component for replacing damaged fixing parts. Since orthodontic treatment is a long process, damage to the fixing parts is inevitable. Replacing a damaged part would require removing the entire base unit, making the process quite cumbersome. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this application is to provide an orthodontic fixation device to address the problem that the aforementioned device does not have a component for replacing damaged fixation parts. Since orthodontic treatment takes a long time, fixation parts are bound to be damaged. Replacing damaged parts requires removing the entire base component, which is a cumbersome process.

[0006] The technical solution adopted in this application is as follows: it includes multiple fixing seats, the fixing seats have an installation groove in the middle of their interior, a positioning groove at the upper end of the fixing seats, a connecting seat is fitted inside the installation groove, a threaded groove is formed on the upper surface of the connecting seat, a screw is threaded inside the threaded groove, and a driven groove is formed at the upper end of the screw.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, an installation groove is opened in the middle of the fixation base, and a positioning groove is opened at the upper end of the fixation base. A connecting seat is fitted inside the installation groove, and a threaded groove is opened on the upper surface of the connecting seat. A screw is threaded inside the threaded groove, and a driven groove is opened at the upper end of the screw. The fixation base is fixed to the patient's teeth by heating and curing with external equipment and materials. The fixation base, as the base part, provides conditions for the installation of orthodontic components. A combination of installation groove and positioning groove is used. The installation groove provides a position for the installation of the fixation components that connect various parts, while the positioning groove is used to accommodate the components that connect and fix the fixation components, preventing the components from protruding upwards after installation and causing discomfort to the patient during use. The connecting seat, as the main component of the fixation component, provides a position for the installation of various orthodontic components and allows them to pass through it. The threaded groove... This device provides a connection point for the component that runs between the fixation base and the connector. It uses a combination of a screw and a driven groove. The screw passes through the openings in the positioning groove and the threaded groove to connect the fixation base and the connector. The driven groove allows the dentist to insert a dental lancet into the driven groove and then manually rotate it to drive the screw. Once the connector is installed inside the fixation base, tightening the screw and driven groove completes the connection between the base and the fixation component. When a damaged connector needs to be replaced, the driven groove is used to loosen the screw. By installing a component for replacing damaged fixation components in this device, the replacement process is simplified because, since orthodontic treatment is a long process, fixation components are bound to be damaged. Replacing damaged components does not require removing the base component.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment, a clamping ring is fixedly installed on the front outer surface of the connecting seat.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, a clamping ring is fixedly installed on the front outer surface of the connector.

[0014] In a preferred embodiment, a plurality of anchor seats are fixedly installed inside the rear side of the mounting groove.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, multiple anchor seats are fixedly installed inside the rear side of the mounting slot. The inside of the anchor seats is used to store the end of the archwire, preventing the end of the archwire from being exposed in the oral cavity and scratching the oral mucosa, thus protecting the patient's oral mucosal health.

[0016] In a preferred embodiment, a curling block is fixedly installed inside the anchor seat.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, a coiling block is fixedly installed inside the anchor seat. The coiling block can bend the end of the bowwire through the dot in the anchor seat, so that the end of the bowwire is fixed around the coiling block and prevents the bowwire from coming off inside the anchor seat.

[0018] In a preferred embodiment, the anchor seat has multiple slots fixedly installed inside.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, multiple slots are fixedly installed inside the anchor seat. The slots can provide docking positions for components covering the outer surface of the anchor seat, thus preventing the components inside the anchor seat from being exposed to the oral cavity environment.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, a card block is installed inside the card slot, and a cover plate is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the card block. The combination of the card block and the cover plate is used. The card block is used to bring the cover plate into the inside of the card slot. Through the interlocking between the card slot and the card block, the cover plate covers the outer surface of the anchor seat, and the cover plate provides protection for the components inside the anchor seat.

[0022] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this application are:

[0023] In this application, a combination of a screw and a driven groove is used. The screw passes through the opening of the positioning groove and the threaded groove, connecting the fixed seat and the connecting seat. The driven groove allows the dentist to insert a dental lancet into the driven groove and then manually rotate it to drive the screw. After the connecting seat is installed inside the fixed seat, tightening the screw and the driven groove completes the connection between the base and the fixed component. When a damaged connecting seat needs to be replaced, the driven groove is used to loosen the screw. By installing a component for replacing damaged fixed components in this device, since orthodontic treatment is a long process and fixed components are bound to be damaged, replacing damaged components does not require removing the base component, thus simplifying the replacement process.
