Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a visual inspection device, specifically a visual inspection device for dental molds. Background Technology
[0002] A dental impression is a precise model of a tooth, commonly used in the field of dentistry, especially in procedures such as orthodontic treatment. Dental impressions are typically made by mixing tooth powder and water, similar to toothpaste. When biting, they have a minty flavor. Alternatively, plaster or silicone rubber can be used to create a complete impression. The dentist will have the patient assist with the impression taking process. The patient needs to open their mouth wide so that the tray containing the impression material is placed inside, completely covering the upper or lower teeth to ensure a clear impression of each tooth. After the material hardens, the tray is gently removed, completing the impression process. The removed model needs to be filled with plaster or silicone rubber to form a complete dental impression. After fabrication, the external surface of the dental impression needs to be inspected, which can be done using a visual inspection device.
[0003] In the prior art, CN202122111437.0 discloses a dental mold occlusion testing device for dental mold preparation. This utility model discloses a dental mold occlusion testing device for dental mold preparation, relating to the field of dental mold testing technology. This utility model includes a measuring rod, abutment, support rod, handle, connecting piece, and connector. The measuring rod is detachably connected to the handle, the abutment is detachably connected to the measuring rod, the support rod is connected to the handle, the connecting piece is fixedly connected to the measuring rod, the connector is rotatably connected to the tail end of the measuring rod, a collar and a top rod are fixedly connected to the base plate, a nut and an external thread engage with each other, the external thread is formed on the cylindrical rod, a first pressure plate is fixedly connected to the tail end of the first connecting rod, and a second pressure plate is fixed to the tail end of the second connecting rod. The first and second pressure plates have the same structure.
[0004] In the existing technology, the end of the measuring rod is detachably connected to the support handle, and a support rod is connected to the support handle. This solves the problems of existing dental mold occlusion testing devices, which do not have good testing effects and are inconvenient for users to disassemble and clean. However, it cannot inspect the outer surface of the dental mold and cannot effectively detect defects in the dental mold. Utility Model Content
