Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of orthodontic technology, and in particular to an auxiliary fixing device for orthodontic brackets. Background Technology
[0002] In recent years, more and more people have begun to pay attention to their oral health and aesthetics, resulting in a greater demand for orthodontic treatment. Orthodontics is a specialized treatment that uses braces to apply gentle and continuous force to gradually move teeth to the ideal position, so that teeth are aligned and occlusion is normal, while improving facial appearance and oral function.
[0003] During orthodontic treatment, braces need to be fixed. This involves the dentist cleaning the tooth surface, treating it with an etching agent, applying an adhesive, precisely bonding the brackets to the tooth surface, and finally inserting the archwire (such as...). Figure 1 As shown in the diagram, this allows the archwire to apply force to the teeth, enabling them to return to their proper positions after a certain period of adjustment. During this process, the brackets need to be precisely bonded to the tooth surface. However, saliva is secreted in the mouth when the brackets are precisely bonded to the tooth surface, which affects the bonding between the brackets and the tooth surface. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, the technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to propose an auxiliary fixing device for orthodontic brackets, so as to reduce the influence of saliva in the oral cavity on the adhesion between the bracket and the tooth surface when fixing the orthodontic bracket.
[0005] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: This utility model provides an auxiliary fixing device for orthodontic brackets, including an auxiliary brace that fits with the teeth. The auxiliary brace is divided into anterior tooth segment, left posterior tooth segment, and right posterior tooth segment. Further, the auxiliary brace is filled with a shaping occlusal agent. The inner surface of the auxiliary brace is provided with a hydrophobic coating, and the outer surface of the auxiliary brace is provided with an absorbent layer. The auxiliary brace is malleable, and the labial edges on both sides of the auxiliary brace are sealed with an elastic material. The auxiliary brace has a positioning window that fits with the bracket on the side near the mouth. The length of the edge of the auxiliary brace near the throat is less than 1 / 2 of the length of the edge near the mouth. The auxiliary brace also has a clip groove on the side near the throat to facilitate the removal of the auxiliary brace.
[0006] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: by setting up an auxiliary brace, a complete dentition isolation can be formed, and by opening a positioning window on the auxiliary brace, a relatively independent isolation space can be established for the bonding of the brackets, so as to ultimately prevent the influence of saliva secretion on the bonding of the brackets, thereby achieving the function of assisting in the fixation of the brackets.

[0009] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0010] To address the inconvenience caused to surgeons during operations by the inability to simultaneously aspirate waste liquid during rinsing or when the suction head of existing suction devices needs to be replaced when aspirating gas or liquid, this invention provides a multifunctional controllable suction device for intraoperative use.
[0011] To address the impact of saliva secreted in the mouth on the adhesion between the bracket 3 and the tooth surface during the bonding process, this invention provides an auxiliary fixing device for orthodontic brackets. Specifically, it includes an auxiliary brace 1 that cooperates with the teeth 4. To match the different tooth layouts of various individuals, the auxiliary brace 1 is divided into anterior, left posterior, and right posterior segments, allowing for segmented bonding of the bracket 3. Furthermore, the auxiliary brace 1 has a positioning window 2 on the side near the mouth that cooperates with the bracket 3. The area of the positioning window 2 is not smaller than that of the bracket 3, allowing for some adjustment leeway when bonding the bracket 3 to the upper tooth surface. This creates a relatively isolated and independent space for the bracket 3, preventing the influence of saliva. Specifically, in use, the auxiliary brace 1 without the positioning window 2 is first placed on the teeth 4 to be corrected. Then, a corresponding positioning window 2 is marked on the auxiliary brace 1 for each tooth 4, ensuring precise bonding of the bracket 3 during subsequent bonding. When opening the positioning window 2, the positioning window 2 can be opened for each tooth 4 using a hole opener according to the determined position of the opening mark on the auxiliary brace 1. The opening head of the hole opener needs to correspond to the shape of the corresponding positioning window 2. Then, the opening head of the hole opener is pressed against the marked opening position on the auxiliary brace 1 (at this time, a backing for the auxiliary opening needs to be set on the other side of the auxiliary brace 1, so the hole opener can be designed as a clamp shape, which is not the focus of this case and will not be elaborated here). Then, the auxiliary brace 1 with the positioning window 2 opened can be put on the dentition formed by multiple teeth 4. Before putting it on, a shaping occlusal agent 10 can be filled in the auxiliary brace 1. The shaping occlusal agent 10 can be a sponge, foam, etc., to make it easy for the person to bite the auxiliary brace 1 when putting it on, so as to facilitate the subsequent fixation of the bracket 3. Then, the auxiliary brace 1 is removed, and the positioning window 2 that matches the bracket is set at the mark. This requires the auxiliary brace 1 to be made of a malleable material to ensure a certain degree of resistance to deformation, such as metal and some medical polymer materials, etc.To prevent saliva from entering between the auxiliary brace 1 and the teeth 4, a certain degree of seal is required after wearing. The labial edges 11 on both sides of the auxiliary brace 1 are sealed with elastic material. The outer surface of the auxiliary brace 1 has an absorbent layer. For easy removal, the inner surface of the auxiliary brace 1 has a hydrophobic coating. The length of the edge of the auxiliary brace 1 near the throat is less than half the length of the edge near the mouth. A clipping groove 14 is also provided on the throat side of the auxiliary brace 1. This allows the auxiliary brace 1 to be removed after the bracket 3 is bonded, without affecting the bonded bracket 3. Then, the archwire can be connected, etc. During this process, the bracket 3 needs to be bonded to the tooth surface of the teeth 4. To prevent the adhesive from spreading disorderly to the auxiliary brace during bonding, the bracket 3 is bonded with a special material. Between tooth 1 and tooth 4, the removal of the auxiliary brace 1 is affected. The auxiliary brace 1 also has a collection groove 12 that cooperates with the positioning window 2. The collection groove 12 and the positioning window 2 are connected by an overflow portion 13. The height of the overflow portion 13 is lower than the depth of the collection groove 12. Therefore, when creating the positioning window 2, the opening head of the hole opener can use a U-shaped structure to create the collection groove 12 (this method requires removing the cut-off portion of the collection groove 12, or alternatively, the collection groove 12 can be pressed out around the positioning window 2 while cutting it out). Thus, when the bracket 3 is pressed and bonded to tooth 4, excess adhesive can diffuse through the overflow portion 13 and transfer to the collection groove 12, preventing excessive penetration between the auxiliary brace 1 and tooth 4, ensuring easy removal of the auxiliary brace 1.
[0012] This utility model has been described through preferred embodiments. Those skilled in the art will understand that various changes or equivalent substitutions can be made to these features and embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model. This utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein; other embodiments falling within the scope of the claims of this application are all within the protection scope of this utility model.
