Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of oral medical equipment technology, specifically to a dental occlusal frame for implant-supported dentures. Background Technology
[0002] Dental implants involve surgically inserting artificial tooth roots into the alveolar bone, and then attaching prostheses to the artificial roots to restore chewing function and aesthetics. During the fabrication of implant prostheses, the dental articulator is a key tool. It simulates the occlusal relationship between the patient's upper and lower jaws, helping the dentist accurately define the position, angle, and occlusal height of the teeth to ensure proper occlusal coordination between the prosthesis and the opposing teeth.
[0003] In existing technologies, the structure of dental articulators is relatively simple, typically consisting of a fixed maxillary articulator, a mandibular articulator, and an adjustment rod connecting the two. However, these articulators have the following drawbacks: traditional articulators are mostly adjustable in one dimension, unable to achieve precise adjustments in multiple directions such as horizontal, vertical, and rotation, making it difficult to adapt to the differences in oral anatomy among different patients, resulting in insufficient precision in denture fabrication.
[0004] Therefore, the inventor proposed a dental occlusal frame for implant-supported dentures. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a dental occlusal frame for implant-supported dentures to solve the problem of poor adjustment precision in existing models.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: A dental implant occlusal frame includes a base assembly, a maxillary support mechanism, a mandibular support mechanism, a three-dimensional adjustment assembly, and an occlusal simulation assembly. The upper surface of the base assembly is provided with a rotating connecting seat and parallel sliding rails. The bottom of the rotating connecting seat is provided with a slider adapted to the sliding rails. The mandibular support mechanism is hinged to the base assembly through the rotating connecting seat and slides on the sliding rails through the rotating connecting seat. The three-dimensional adjustment assembly includes a horizontal adjustment component, a vertical adjustment component, and an adjustment component body. The horizontal adjustment component is arranged parallel above the base assembly. The maxillary support mechanism is fixed below the adjustment slider of the horizontal adjustment component. The maxillary support mechanism (2) is positioned opposite to the mandibular support mechanism. The adjustment component body is located on the right side of the base assembly. The occlusal simulation assembly includes a maxillary simulation plate and a mandibular simulation plate. The maxillary simulation plate is connected to the bottom of the maxillary support mechanism through an elastic buffer, and the mandibular simulation plate is connected to the top of the mandibular support mechanism through an elastic buffer. The maxillary simulation plate and the mandibular simulation plate are positioned opposite each other.
[0007] Furthermore, the rotating connecting seat includes a fixed seat and a rotating shaft. The fixed seat is fixedly connected to the base assembly, and the rotating shaft passes through the end of the chin support mechanism and is rotatably connected to the fixed seat. Limiting baffles are provided at both ends of the rotating shaft.
[0008] Furthermore, the leveling component also includes an adjusting screw and an adjusting nut, the lower end of the adjusting slider is hinged to the upper jaw support mechanism, and the surface of the adjusting screw is provided with length graduations.
[0009] Furthermore, the vertical adjustment component includes a vertical adjustment column and a positioning pin. The vertical adjustment column has multiple positioning holes along the axial direction on its side. The main body of the adjustment component has a pin hole that matches the positioning holes. The positioning pin passes through the pin hole and the positioning hole to lock the vertical height.
[0010] Furthermore, the occlusion simulation component also includes a pressure sensor and a display screen. The pressure sensor is embedded in the occlusal surface of the maxillary simulation plate and the mandibular simulation plate, respectively, and the display screen is located on the side of the base assembly. The pressure sensor and the display screen are electrically connected.
[0011] Furthermore, a level calibrator is provided at the bottom of the base assembly. The level calibrator is a bubble level and is embedded in the edge of the upper surface of the base assembly.
[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: This invention features multi-dimensional adjustment, enabling flexible horizontal, vertical, and rotational adjustments via a three-dimensional adjustment component. This allows for precise simulation of different patients' occlusal relationships and adaptability to complex oral anatomy. Simultaneously, the use of a rotating connecting seat, sliding guide rails, and locking pins ensures stable positioning after adjustment, preventing loosening and improving the accuracy of occlusal simulation. Elastic buffers and pressure sensors simulate the force state during natural occlusion and monitor pressure in real time, facilitating optimized denture design and enhancing patient comfort. The adjustment process requires no disassembly of components; quick adjustments are achieved via screws and locking pins, simplifying the operation and improving work efficiency.

The maxillary simulation plate 51 and the mandibular simulation plate 52 are positioned opposite each other.
[0020] Working principle: The patient's maxillary and mandibular denture models are fixed on the maxillary simulation plate 51 and mandibular simulation plate 52, respectively. The base assembly 1 is adjusted to a horizontal state using a level calibrator. The adjusting nut 413 is rotated, and the adjusting slider 412 is moved according to the scale on the adjusting screw 411 to adjust the maxillary support mechanism 2 to a suitable position, achieving initial adjustment of the horizontal distance. The positioning pin 422 is inserted into the positioning hole of the vertical adjusting column 421, changing the height of the vertical adjusting component 42 so that the vertical distance between the maxillary and mandibular simulation plates matches the patient's occlusal height. The maxillary and mandibular simulation plates are gently bitten, and the distribution of occlusal pressure is observed on the display screen 54. If there are areas of concentrated or excessive pressure, fine-tuning is performed using the three-dimensional adjusting component 4 until the pressure distribution is uniform and the maximum pressure value is within a suitable range. After adjustment, all adjusting components are locked, and the denture is fabricated or adjusted.
