Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of oral medical device technology, specifically to a proximal enamel-removing support. Background Technology

[0002] Interproximal enamel reduction, also known as "tooth reduction," is a common technique used in orthodontic treatment. Its purpose is to reduce the mesial and distal width of teeth by removing a portion of the enamel between adjacent teeth, creating space for alignment and thus resolving issues such as crowding and harmonizing the Bolton ratio of the anterior teeth.

[0003] An existing type of adjacent-face glaze removal structure, such as Figure 1 As shown, the device includes a first retaining frame 11 and a second retaining frame 12. A connecting strip 13 is fixed to the top of the first retaining frame 11, and a connecting groove is formed on the top of the second retaining frame 12. The connecting strip 13 can be slidably inserted into the connecting groove to form an arc-shaped retaining frame. A stud 14 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the second retaining frame 12, and a knob 15 is threaded onto the stud 14. The knob 15 can be rotated on the stud 14 until it abuts against the first retaining frame 11. A first latch is provided at the bottom of the first retaining frame 11. The second retaining frame 12 has a second slot at its bottom. A sanding strip 16 is fitted into the first slot and the second slot. The sanding strip 16 can be made of other types of sanding strips such as existing diamond sanding strips or plastic sanding strips. A first retaining sleeve 17 is hinged to the frame of the first retaining frame 11. The first retaining sleeve 17 is adapted to clamp one end of the sanding strip 16 located at the bottom of the first retaining frame 11. A second retaining sleeve 18 is hinged to the frame of the second retaining frame 12. The second retaining sleeve 18 is adapted to clamp the other end of the sanding strip 16 located at the bottom of the second retaining frame 12. In use, first rotate the knob 15 on the stud 14 until it contacts and abuts against the first retainer 11, thereby tightening and straightening the abrasive strip 16, which is locked in the first and second retainers. Then, use your thumb and forefinger to press the outer surfaces of the first retainer 17 and the second retainer 18 respectively to secure the entire proximal enamel remover. Then, repeatedly move the abrasive strip 16 to remove a certain amount of enamel from the proximal surfaces of the teeth. This process requires precise control of the amount removed to avoid excessive damage to the teeth. However, the inventors of this application have found through clinical use that the process of removing enamel from the proximal surfaces of teeth using abrasive strips is currently performed inside the oral cavity. Due to the relatively small space inside the oral cavity, this operation is time-consuming, laborious, and inconvenient. Utility Model Content

[0004] The existing process of removing enamel from the proximal surfaces of teeth using abrasive strips is currently performed inside the oral cavity. Due to the limited space inside the oral cavity, this process is time-consuming, laborious, and inconvenient. Therefore, this invention provides a proximal enamel removal bracket.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A proximal glaze removal bracket includes a crossbeam, one end of which is hinged to a first clamping plate, and the other end of which is hinged to a second clamping plate. A top clamping groove is formed on the inner surface of the crossbeam, a first clamping groove is formed on the inner surface of the first clamping plate, and a second clamping groove is formed on the inner surface of the second clamping plate. The two ends of the top clamping groove are respectively aligned with the first and second clamping grooves to form a continuous clamping groove. A support rod that can extend out of the oral cavity is provided on the front side of the crossbeam.

[0007] Compared with the prior art, the proximal enamel removal bracket provided by this utility model is used by first aligning the clamping groove, the first clamping groove, and the second clamping groove to form a continuous clamping groove, and then clamping the bracket outside the bow-shaped retention frame formed by the first retention frame and the second retention frame in the existing proximal enamel removal device. Then, the entire proximal enamel removal bracket is tightened by the support rod extending outside the oral cavity. Then, a certain amount of enamel is removed from the proximal surface of the teeth by repeatedly moving the abrasive strip. Compared with the existing grinding operation performed inside the oral cavity, this application has a larger operating space outside the oral cavity, so it is time-saving, labor-saving, and very convenient to operate.

[0008] Furthermore, the two ends of the crossbeam are hinged to the first clamping plate and the second clamping plate by pins.

[0009] Furthermore, the hinge joints between the two ends of the crossbeam and the first and second clamping plates are smoothly transitioned by rounded arcs.

[0010] Furthermore, the support rod is fixedly installed perpendicular to the front side of the crossbeam.

[0011] Furthermore, the support rod is fixedly installed parallel to the front side of the crossbeam in the left-right direction.

[0012] Furthermore, the front side of the crossbeam is provided with two elastic clips arranged opposite each other, and the two elastic clips are provided with opposite connecting holes. One end surface of the support rod is provided with two connecting shafts arranged back to back. The two connecting shafts are rotatably sleeved in the two connecting holes, and one end surface of the support rod is in contact with the opposite inner side of the two elastic clips and is clamped.

In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.

[0018] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0019] Please refer to Figure 2 As shown, this utility model provides a glaze removal bracket for adjacent surfaces, including a crossbeam 1. One end of the crossbeam 1 is hinged to a first clamping plate 2, and the other end of the crossbeam 1 is hinged to a second clamping plate 3. A top clamping groove (not shown in the figure) is formed on the inner surface of the crossbeam 1. A first clamping groove is formed on the inner surface of the first clamping plate 2, and a second clamping groove 4 is formed on the inner surface of the second clamping plate 3. The two ends of the top clamping groove are respectively aligned with the first clamping groove and the second clamping groove 4 to form a continuous clamping groove. The continuous clamping groove is adapted to the external shape of the arc-shaped retaining frame formed by the first retaining frame 11 and the second retaining frame 12 in the existing adjacent surface glaze remover, so as to cover and clamp it. A support rod 5 that can extend out of the mouth is provided on the front side of the crossbeam 1.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the proximal enamel removal bracket provided by this utility model is used by first aligning the clamping groove, the first clamping groove, and the second clamping groove to form a continuous clamping groove, and then clamping the bracket outside the bow-shaped retention frame formed by the first retention frame and the second retention frame in the existing proximal enamel removal device. Then, the entire proximal enamel removal bracket is tightened by the support rod extending outside the oral cavity. Then, a certain amount of enamel is removed from the proximal surface of the teeth by repeatedly moving the abrasive strip. Compared with the existing grinding operation performed inside the oral cavity, this application has a larger operating space outside the oral cavity, so it is time-saving, labor-saving, and very convenient to operate.

[0021] For a specific embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 As shown, the two ends of the crossbeam 1 are hinged to the first clamping plate 2 and the second clamping plate 3 by means of pins 6. Specifically, pin holes can be opened at both ends of the crossbeam 1, and pins 6 can be fixedly installed in the pin holes. The first clamping plate 2 and the second clamping plate 3 are provided with connecting holes, and the hinge can be realized by movably fitting the pins 6 through the connecting holes.

[0022] In a specific embodiment, the hinge joints between the two ends of the crossbeam 1 and the first clamping plate 2 and the second clamping plate 3 are smoothly connected by an arc, which can better avoid the outer surface of the adjacent enamel removal bracket from causing damage to the oral mucosa and effectively improve the patient's comfort during the enamel removal procedure.

[0023] As one specific embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 As shown, the support rod 5 is fixed perpendicular to the front side of the crossbeam 1 as if welded, thereby enclosing the enamel removal bracket outside the bow-shaped retainer composed of the first retainer 11 and the second retainer 12 in the existing enamel removal device, and can be used to remove the enamel between two adjacent molars.

[0024] In another specific embodiment, the support rod 5 is fixed in the left-right direction parallel to the front side of the crossbeam 1, as if welded. This allows the enamel removal bracket to be sandwiched outside the bow-shaped retainer composed of the first retainer 11 and the second retainer 12 in the existing enamel removal device, and can be used to remove the enamel between two adjacent incisors.

[0025] In another specific embodiment, the front side of the crossbeam 1 is provided with two elastic clips arranged opposite each other. The two elastic clips are provided with opposite connecting holes. One end surface of the support rod 5 is provided with two connecting shafts arranged back to back. The two connecting shafts are rotatably sleeved in the two connecting holes, that is, one connecting shaft is rotatably sleeved in one connecting hole. The one end surface of the support rod 5 is in contact with the opposite inner side of the two elastic clips and is clamped. This allows the support rod 5 to be rotatably clamped on the front side of the crossbeam 1. Thus, when the support rod 5 is held and rotated to change direction, it can be rotated to be parallel or perpendicular to the front side of the crossbeam 1, which is suitable for grinding the enamel between two adjacent incisors or molars.

[0026] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
