Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to an orthodontic treatment device, and more particularly to a palatal micro-implant anchorage basic device and anchorage frame. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, an implant anchorage 1 is required during orthodontic treatment. This implant anchorage 1 is installed in the patient's hard palate to achieve anchorage control.
[0003] See Figure 1 , Figure 1 The image shows an existing planting support frame 1, which is mainly composed of two parts: the support planting base 11 and the support functional assembly 12.
[0004] The anchorage implant base 11 is provided with an implant hole 15, in which an implantation hole is formed. The anchorage implant base 11 is used to fix the entire implant anchorage 1 at the hard palate by inserting a micro-implant 2 (which, as those skilled in the art will understand, is a tiny special screw) through the implant hole 15 into the double layer of cortical bone of the patient's hard palate.
[0005] The anchorage functional assembly 12 is fixedly connected to the anchorage implantation base 11, or in other words, the anchorage functional assembly 12 is fixedly set based on the anchorage implantation base 11; the anchorage functional assembly 12 is used to realize specific anchorage functions.
[0006] It should be noted that, depending on the needs of orthodontic treatment, the anchorage assembly 12 can be designed in various configurations. For example... Figure 1 The support assembly 12 shown is a "two-wing configuration", which is used to achieve special functions for traction requirements in different positions and directions.
[0007] The current problem is:
[0008] During orthodontic treatment, different implant anchorage frames 1 with different functions are required at different treatment stages (the only difference between these implant anchorage frames 1 with different functions is the configuration of the anchorage functional assembly 12, while the basic configuration of the anchorage implant base 11 is the same) in order to achieve different treatment functions.
[0009] Therefore, whenever a previous treatment phase is completed and a new phase is needed, the implant anchorage 1 used in the previous phase must be removed from the patient's mouth, and then replaced with the implant anchorage 1 required for the new phase. This process is very cumbersome and inconvenient, resulting in low efficiency in orthodontic treatment.
[0010] Moreover, it will increase the patient's pain, and the overall cost of replacing the implantation stent is also relatively high, thus increasing the patient's financial burden.
[0011] Furthermore, since the anchorage implant base 11 and the anchorage functional assembly 12 are fixedly connected, this leads to a situation where "once the implantation anchorage frame 1 is installed, the orientation of the anchorage functional assembly 12 cannot be adjusted," thus failing to meet the requirement that "the orientation of the anchorage functional assembly 12 needs to be finely adjusted during treatment."
[0012] The problems mentioned above are also the problems that this invention aims to solve. Summary of the Invention
[0013] The purpose of this invention is to provide a palatal micro-implant anchorage base device and anchorage frame, which enables rapid assembly and disassembly of the anchorage frame and fine-tuning of its orientation, thereby effectively improving the implementation effect of orthodontic treatment.
[0014] To achieve the above-mentioned technical objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0015] A palatal micro-implant anchorage base device includes a base body and a functional base carrier; the base body is provided with an implant hole and a base carrier assembly mechanism; the base carrier assembly mechanism fixes the functional base carrier onto the base body.
[0016] Furthermore, the implant hole is used to insert a micro-implant through the implant hole and into the palate, thereby fixing the anchorage base device at the palate.
[0017] Furthermore, the specific structural form of the base carrier assembly mechanism is as follows: a positioning embedding block is provided on the base body, and the positioning embedding block is a polygonal prism configuration; the functional base carrier is provided with a fitting hole, and the fitting hole is a polygonal hole configuration; a threaded hole is opened on the positioning embedding block, and a positioning screw is configured for the threaded hole; the functional base carrier is fitted onto the positioning embedding block, and the positioning screw is screwed into the threaded hole on the positioning embedding block and tightened, and the positioning screw limits the functional base carrier at the positioning embedding block.
[0018] Furthermore, the specific structural form of the base carrier assembly mechanism is as follows: a positioning embedding block is provided on the base body, and the positioning embedding block is provided with a plurality of ratchet teeth; the functional base carrier is provided with a fitting hole, and a plurality of ratchet teeth are provided on the inner circumferential surface of the fitting hole; a threaded hole is opened on the positioning embedding block, and a positioning screw is configured for the threaded hole; the functional base carrier is fitted onto the positioning embedding block, the ratchet teeth of the positioning embedding block and the ratchet teeth of the functional base carrier engage with each other, and the positioning screw is screwed into the threaded hole on the positioning embedding block and tightened, the positioning screw constrains the functional base carrier at the positioning embedding block.
[0019] Furthermore, the base body includes two planting holes and a connecting plate, with the two planting holes fixedly connected together by the connecting plate.
[0020] Furthermore, the implantation hole is formed in the implantation body.
[0021] A palatal micro-implant anchorage, the anchorage comprising the anchorage base device as described above and the anchorage functional assembly, the anchorage functional assembly being fixedly mounted based on a functional base carrier.
[0022] Furthermore, the anchorage assembly is a palatal rod assembly.
[0023] Furthermore, the palatal rod assembly can be a posterior configuration of the mid-palatal suture region, an anterior-posterior configuration of the mid-palatal suture region, a posterior configuration of the prepalatal region, an anterior-posterior configuration of the prepalatal region, a posterior configuration of the para-palatal region, or an anterior-posterior configuration of the para-palatal region.
[0024] Furthermore, the support functional assembly is a two-sided wing configuration component.
[0025] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this novel palatal micro-implant anchorage basic device and anchorage frame are as follows:
[0026] 1) The anchorage base device and anchorage frame of this utility model are used to implement anchorage control in the orthodontic treatment process. When the anchorage needs to be adjusted, it can be achieved by quickly replacing the functional components, which greatly simplifies the operation process, improves the efficiency of the treatment operation, reduces the pain of patients, reduces the treatment cost, and alleviates the economic burden of patients.
[0027] 2) Since the assembly angle between the positioning embedding block and the functional base carrier can be finely adjusted, it can meet the requirement that "the orientation of the anchorage functional assembly needs to be finely adjusted during the treatment process".

[0036] The specific embodiments of this utility model are further described below:
[0037] This embodiment provides a palatal micro-implant anchorage base device for constructing an anchorage frame that can be easily assembled and disassembled (see below for details).
[0038] See Figure 2 The support foundation device in this embodiment includes a foundation body 3, a functional base carrier 4, and positioning screws 5.
[0039] The base body 3 includes two implantation holes 31 and a connecting plate 32. The two implantation holes 31 are fixedly connected together by the connecting plate 32, thus forming the main body of the entire base body 3.
[0040] The implant body 31 is generally conical in shape, and has a through hole, which is called the implant hole 311. The implant hole 311 is used for inserting a micro-implant using the prior art through the implant hole 311 and into the double layer of cortical bone of the patient's palate, thereby fixing the anchorage base device at the palate.
[0041] A positioning insert block 33 is provided on the connecting plate 32. The outer peripheral surface of the positioning insert block 33 is octagonal prism. A threaded hole is provided in the middle of the positioning insert block 33 for assembly connection with the positioning screw 5. That is to say, the positioning screw 5 is specially configured for the threaded hole, and the function of the positioning screw 5 is to constrain the functional base carrier 4 on the positioning insert block 33 (see below for details).
[0042] The functional base carrier 4 has a through hole, which is an octagonal hole. The outer peripheral surface of the functional base carrier 4 is also an octagonal prism, and the entire functional base carrier 4 is an octagonal sleeve.
[0043] For ease of description, the octagonal hole provided on the functional base carrier 4 is defined as the fitting hole. The configuration and size of the fitting hole of the functional base carrier 4 match the configuration and size of the positioning embedding block 33, and the functional base carrier 4 and the positioning embedding block 33 can be assembled together by nesting the octagonal prism hole.
[0044] The assembly configuration between the basic body 3, the functional base carrier 4, and the positioning screws 5 is as follows:
[0045] The functional base carrier 4 is mounted on the positioning embedding block 33. The positioning embedding block 33 is embedded in the mounting hole of the functional base carrier 4. The positioning screw 5 is screwed into the threaded hole on the positioning embedding block 33 and tightened. The functional base carrier 4 is then fixed at the positioning embedding block 33 of the base body 3 by the positioning screw 5. In other words, the functional base carrier 4 is fixedly mounted on the connecting plate 32 of the base body 3.
[0046] It should be noted that the combination of the positioning screw 5 and the positioning insert block 33, along with the fitting hole of the functional base carrier 4, can be considered as a reusable base carrier assembly mechanism. The function of this assembly mechanism is to fix the functional base carrier 4 onto the base body 3, and it can be easily and repeatedly disassembled and reassembled. In other embodiments, other forms of reusable base carrier assembly mechanisms can also be used, as long as they can achieve the function of "fixing the functional base carrier 4 onto the base body 3 and allowing for easy and repeated disassembly and reassembly."
[0047] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the nested assembly between the positioning embedding block 33 and the functional base carrier 4 is based on the fact that "the outer peripheral surface of the positioning embedding block 33 is an octagonal prism" and "the fitting hole provided on the functional base carrier 4 is an octagonal hole". In other embodiments, "n-prism" and "n-hole" (n is a natural number greater than 2) can be set according to actual needs, as long as the positioning embedding block 33 and the functional base carrier 4 can be properly nested together.
[0048] The advantage of this multi-prism hole nested assembly is that the assembly angle between the functional base carrier 4 and the positioning embedding block 33 can be adjusted. The larger the number of prisms (i.e., the larger n is), the smaller the minimum adjustable angle, thereby enabling fine adjustment of the assembly angle between the functional base carrier 4 and the positioning embedding block 33.
[0049] Preferably, in other embodiments, the nested assembly between the positioning insert block 33 and the functional base carrier 4 does not necessarily have to be achieved by using a "prism configuration matching prism hole configuration" method; other nested assembly forms can also be used. For example, numerous uniformly discrete ratchet teeth can be provided on the outer peripheral surface of the positioning insert block 33, and numerous uniformly discrete ratchet teeth can also be provided on the inner peripheral surface of the fitting hole of the functional base carrier 4. The number, configuration, and size of the ratchet teeth provided on the positioning insert block 33 and the functional base carrier 4 are matched, and the positioning insert block 33 and the functional base carrier 4 can be properly nested together, and the ratchet teeth of the two can precisely mesh together, thereby forming a multi-ratch meshing assembly.
[0050] Compared to the multi-prism hole nested assembly method used in this embodiment, the multi-ratchet assembly method also has the advantage of fine adjustment of the assembly angle, and the minimum adjustable angle can be very small, which is very advantageous for orthodontic treatment. In addition, this multi-ratchet assembly method has a high reliability of assembly connection and will not cause slippage of the assembly surface.
[0051] See Figures 3 to 8 In this embodiment, the anchorage base device is used to construct a palatal micro-implant anchorage frame.
[0052] Specifically
[0053] The anchorage frame utilizes the previously mentioned anchorage base device, and, as needed, the anchorage functional assembly 6 is fixedly mounted on the functional base carrier 4, thus forming a complete anchorage frame. The combination of the functional base carrier 4 and the anchorage functional assembly 6 essentially constitutes a functional component. It should be noted that the anchorage functional assembly 6, based on the functional base carrier 4, can be various forms of functional components to meet the needs of different stages of orthodontic treatment.
[0054] In this embodiment, the anchorage assembly 6 is a palatal bar assembly. See also Figures 3 to 8 The illustration shows various configurations of the palatal bar assembly used as the anchorage functional assembly 6.
[0055] like Figure 3 As shown, the anchorage functional assembly 6 is a palatal bar assembly with a posterior configuration in the palatal midline region. When micro-implants are implanted in the palatal midline region, traction is applied to the posterior teeth on both sides of the maxilla.
[0056] like Figure 4 As shown, the anchorage functional assembly 6 is a palatal bar assembly with anterior and posterior configuration in the mid-palatal suture region. When micro-implants are implanted in the mid-palatal suture, traction is applied to the entire maxillary tooth segment on both sides.
[0057] like Figure 5 As shown, the anchorage functional assembly 6 is a palatal bar assembly with a posterior configuration in the anterior palatal region. It is used to perform traction on the posterior teeth regions on both sides of the maxilla when the palatal suture is not closed and micro-implants are implanted in parallel in the anterior palatal region.
[0058] like Figure 6 As shown, the anchorage functional assembly 6 is a palatal bar assembly with anterior and posterior configuration in the prepalatal region. It is used to perform traction on the entire maxillary tooth segment when the mid-palatal suture is not closed and micro-implants are implanted in parallel in the prepalatal region.
[0059] like Figure 7 As shown, the anchorage functional assembly 6 is a palatal bar assembly with a posterior configuration in the para-middle palate region. It is used to perform traction on the posterior teeth regions on both sides of the maxilla when the palatal suture is not closed and micro-implants are implanted in the para-middle palate region.
[0060] like Figure 8 As shown, the anchorage functional assembly 6 is a palatal bar assembly with anterior and posterior configuration in the para-middle palate region. It is used to perform traction on the entire maxillary tooth segment when micro-implants are implanted in the para-middle palate region when the palatal suture is not closed.
[0061] In other embodiments, the support functional assembly 6 may also be the "two-wing configuration component" mentioned in the background art, so as to realize the function of traction in different positions and directions.
[0062] The specific method of using the support frame is as follows:
[0063] Based on the established orthodontic treatment plan (which usually involves multiple treatment phases), prepare multiple functional components consisting of functional base carrier 4 and anchorage functional assembly 6 to meet the functional requirements of multiple treatment phases.
[0064] The base body 3 of the anchorage device is fixed in the patient's oral cavity at the hard palate using a micro-implant.
[0065] According to the functional requirements of the treatment stage, select the corresponding functional components, and put the functional base carrier 4 on the positioning embedding block 33 of the base body 3. Then, use the positioning screw 5 to limit the functional base carrier 4 on the positioning embedding block 33, thereby assembling the functional components on the base body 3.
[0066] During the assembly of functional components, the assembly angle between the functional base carrier 4 and the positioning embedding block 33 can be adjusted according to the specific situation.
[0067] When a previous treatment phase is completed and a new phase is to begin, the functional components used in the previous phase are removed from the base body 3, and then the functional components corresponding to the new phase are assembled onto the base body 3. This process is repeated until all orthodontic treatment plans are completed.
[0068] The advantages of the support foundation device and support frame in this embodiment are:
[0069] The base body 3 is provided with positioning inserts 33 and positioning screws 5. It also includes a functional base carrier 4, upon which an anchorage functional assembly 6 is built. The functional base carrier 4 and the anchorage functional assembly 6 combine to form a functional component. This functional component can be easily and quickly assembled and disassembled at the positioning inserts 33 via the functional base carrier 4. In this way, the functional component can be quickly replaced only according to the functional needs of the orthodontic treatment stage, without having to disassemble and replace the entire anchorage frame, including the base body 3. This greatly simplifies the operation process, improves the efficiency of treatment, reduces patient discomfort, lowers treatment costs, and alleviates the economic burden on patients.
[0070] Furthermore, since the assembly angle between the positioning embedding block 33 and the functional base carrier 4 can be finely adjusted, the requirement of "fine-tuning the orientation of the anchorage functional assembly 6 during treatment" can be met.
[0071] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present utility model. Therefore, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
