[Technical field]
[0001] [CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS] This application claims priority to a Chinese patent application with application number 202210986748.8, filed on August 17, 2022, and entitled "Magnetic Field Adjustable Micro-Magnetic Orthodontic Accelerator," the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. The present application relates to the technical field of medical equipment, and in particular to a magnetic field adjustable micro-magnetic orthodontic accelerator. [Background technology]
[0002] Orofacial deformity is one of the three major oral diseases in our country, with a prevalence rate of as high as 29.3%. Orofacial deformity not only affects facial beauty, but also may cause oral diseases in severe cases, and may cause mental disorders when severe, so its prevention and treatment are of great social need. At present, orthodontic treatment is the most important prevention and treatment method for orofacial deformity. The length of the orthodontic treatment cycle is influenced by patient- and treatment-related factors, such as the severity of orofacial deformity, patient compliance, and treatment plan design. Generally, the comprehensive treatment course for orthodontic patients is usually 12 to 36 months, but the longer the treatment period, the higher the risk of complications such as enamel demineralization, tooth decay, root resorption, bone cracks, and bone fenestration, which seriously affect the quality of life of patients and increase the cost of treatment, thus reducing patient compliance.
[0003] Therefore, how to promote tooth movement more safely and effectively and shorten the period of orthodontic treatment has become an urgent issue to be solved in the field of orthodontics. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0014] The embodiment of the present application provides a magnetic field adjustable micro-magnetic orthodontic accelerator 10, which is used for accelerating tooth movement during orthodontic treatment, thereby shortening the period of orthodontic treatment, and the overall shape of the magnetic field adjustable micro-magnetic orthodontic accelerator 10 is an orthodontic bridge structure, so that the magnetic field adjustable micro-magnetic orthodontic accelerator is used for accelerating tooth movement during orthodontic treatment of human teeth. Referring to Figures 1 to 4, the magnetic field adjustable micro-magnetic orthodontic accelerator 10 includes a buccal plate 11 and a lingual plate 12 arranged opposite to each other, and a support plate 13 for connecting the buccal plate 11 and the lingual plate 12.
[0015] Therein, a receiving space 14 is formed between the support plate 13, the buccal plate 11 and the lingual plate 12, and the magnetic field adjustable micro-magnetic orthodontic accelerator 10 has an orthodontic bridge structure. It can be understood that in order for the magnetic field adjustable micro-magnetic orthodontic accelerator 10 to have an orthodontic bridge structure, the support plate 13, the buccal plate 11 and the lingual plate 12 must be in an arc shape to fit the shape of human teeth.
[0016] Among them, the buccal plate 11 is a baffle that faces the cheek, i.e., the lips, when the magnetic field adjustable micro-magnetic orthodontic accelerator 10 is used, the lingual plate 12 is a baffle that faces the tongue, i.e., the palate, when the magnetic field adjustable micro-magnetic orthodontic accelerator is used, and the support plate 13 is a bottom plate that supports the teeth.
[0017] Here, the buccal plate 11 and the lingual plate 12 are provided with a buccal magnet 1 and a lingual magnet 2, respectively, and the buccal magnet 1 and the lingual magnet 2 are arranged opposite to each other, forming at least one pair. The buccal magnet 1 and the lingual magnet 2 can be fixedly installed on the buccal plate 11 and the lingual plate 12, respectively, for example, in the process of preparing an orthodontic bridge, the magnets can be integrally welded and fixed to the orthodontic bridge. The buccal magnet 1 and the lingual magnet 2 can also be removably arranged on the buccal plate 11 and the lingual plate 12, respectively, for example, the orthodontic bridge structure can be prepared first, and then the magnets can be arranged in the orthodontic bridge structure.
[0018] Here, the buccal magnets 1 and the lingual magnets 2 are arranged in pairs, and for example, a pair of buccal magnets 1 and lingual magnets 2, i.e., one buccal magnet 1 and one lingual magnet 2 may correspond to each other, or the buccal magnets 1 and lingual magnets 2 may be any number of pairs, such as 2 pairs, 3 pairs, 4 pairs, 5 pairs, 6 pairs, or 7 pairs, as long as one buccal magnet 1 and one lingual magnet 2 are arranged in correspondence to each other. The number of buccal magnets 1 and lingual magnets 2 is determined according to the number of orthodontic teeth, i.e., the number of teeth that require acceleration.
[0019] When the magnetic field adjustable micro-magnetic orthodontic accelerator 10 is used, teeth are placed in the receiving space 14, the buccal plate 11 and the lingual plate 12 are respectively located on the buccal and lingual sides of the teeth in the receiving space 14, the buccal magnet 1 and the lingual magnet 2 are arranged corresponding to the roots of the teeth, and a micro-magnetic field can be formed between the pair of buccal magnets 1 and lingual magnets 2 to act on the roots of the teeth.
[0020] Micromagnetic fields are ubiquitous in various tissues and organs of the human body and are therefore of great importance for maintaining the body's normal physiological functions, especially for tissue repair and regeneration. The application of orthodontic forces during orthodontic treatment disrupts the local normal micromagnetic environment of periodontal tissues, affecting tissue metabolism and remodeling.
[0021] The magnetic field adjustable micro-magnetic orthodontic accelerator 10 provided by the embodiments of the present application can create a micro-magnetic field environment around the root of the tooth to be moved during orthodontic treatment, effectively compensate for the loss of physiological magnetic field caused by the pulling of the tooth by the orthodontic accessories, and further promote the metabolism and remodeling of the periodontal tissue of the tooth to be moved, accelerating the process of orthodontic tooth movement.
[0022] The magnetic field adjustable micro-magnetic orthodontic accelerator 10 has obvious effect of accelerating tooth movement, strong controllability, and few side effects. The magnetic field adjustable micro-magnetic orthodontic accelerator 10 acts specifically on the tooth root, and does not affect other bone tissues and muscle tissues, thereby reducing side effects, and the micro-magnetic field is generated by magnet induction, and the magnetic field strength is close to the physiological magnetic field strength, which is gentler and easier to control the strength than the electromagnetic pulse, and has few side effects on the human body.
[0023] Among them, in order for the micro-magnetic field generated between the buccal magnet 1 and the lingual magnet 2 to act on the root of the tooth, the height of the buccal plate 11 and the lingual plate 12 must be high enough to cover the alveolar bone at the root of the tooth, and the installation position of the buccal magnet 1 and the lingual magnet 2 corresponds to a position 1 / 3 of the way from the root of the tooth to the cervical part. Since the main structure that affects tooth movement is the alveolar bone, the height of the buccal plate 11 and the lingual plate 12 must cover the alveolar bone at the root of the tooth, so that the micro-magnetic field generated between the buccal magnet 1 and the lingual magnet 2 can reliably act on the alveolar bone, resulting in a better acceleration effect.
[0024] The magnetic field adjustable micro-magnetic orthodontic accelerator 10 can only be used to accelerate the movement of maxillary teeth or mandibular teeth, i.e., only one accommodating space 14 for accommodating maxillary teeth or mandibular teeth is formed between the support plate 13, the buccal plate 11 and the lingual plate 12, and two accommodating spaces 14 can also be formed between the support plate 13, the buccal plate 11 and the lingual plate 25, so that the movement of maxillary teeth and mandibular teeth can be accelerated simultaneously.
[0025] In one embodiment, referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 7, the buccal plate 11 includes an upper buccal plate 111 and a lower buccal plate 112 arranged symmetrically with respect to the support plate 13, the lingual plate 12 includes an upper lingual plate 121 and a lower lingual plate 122 arranged symmetrically with respect to the support plate 13, the accommodation space 14 includes a first accommodation space 141 and a second accommodation space 142 arranged opposite to each other vertically, the upper buccal plate 111, the upper lingual plate 121 and the support plate 13 form a first accommodation space 141, the lower buccal plate 112, the lower lingual plate 122 and the support plate 13 form a second accommodation space 142, the maxillary teeth 20 are arranged in the first accommodation space 141, and the mandibular teeth 30 are arranged in the second accommodation space 142, so that the maxillary teeth 20 and the mandibular teeth 30 can be simultaneously accelerated and moved.
[0026] Here, the up-down direction of the magnetic field adjustable micro-magnetic orthodontic accelerator 10 is perpendicular to the direction of the support plate 13, and the magnetic field adjustable micro-magnetic orthodontic accelerator 10 is arranged symmetrically up and down with the support plate 13 as the axis of symmetry, so that the up-down direction of the magnetic field adjustable micro-magnetic orthodontic accelerator 10 can be exchanged at will.
[0027] Among them, buccal magnets 1 are installed on the upper buccal plate 111 and the lower buccal plate 112, and lingual magnets 2 are installed on the upper lingual plate 121 and the lower lingual plate 122, thereby forming a micro-magnetic field between the upper teeth 20 and the lower teeth 30, respectively.
[0028] In some embodiments, the strength of the micromagnetic field may be 10-30 mT, for example 10-15 mT, or 15-20 mT, or 20-25 mT, more specifically, for example 10 mT, 11 mT, 12 mT, 13 mT, 14 mT, 15 mT, 16 mT, 17 mT, 18 mT, 19 mT, 20 mT, 21 mT, 22 mT, 23 mT, 24 mT, 25 mT, 26 mT, 27 mT, 28 mT, 29 mT, or 30 mT, which is close to physiological magnetic field strength and has little side effects. In some embodiments, the strength of the micromagnetic field is 10-20 mT. As shown in Figures 1 and 7, the buccal plate 11 and the lingual plate 12 include an anterior region 15, a premolar region 16 and a molar region 17, and the buccal magnet 1 and the lingual magnet 2 are positioned facing the anterior region 15, the premolar region 16 and the molar region 17, respectively.
[0029] Here, the anterior tooth region 15 of the buccal plate 11 and the lingual plate 12 corresponds to the anterior teeth of the maxillary teeth 20 and the mandibular teeth 30, the premolar region 16 of the buccal plate 11 and the lingual plate 12 corresponds to the premolar teeth of the maxillary teeth 20 and the mandibular teeth 30, and the molar region 17 of the buccal plate 11 and the lingual plate 12 corresponds to the molar teeth of the maxillary teeth 20 and the mandibular teeth 30. By arranging the buccal magnet 1 and the lingual magnet 2 facing each other on all of the anterior teeth, premolar teeth, and molar teeth, it is possible to promote the movement of all teeth, which is suitable for orthodontic patients.
[0030] In some embodiments, the number of buccal magnets 1 and lingual magnets 2 is between 2 and 12, and the number of buccal magnets 1 and lingual magnets 2 is the same and can be between 2 and 12, for example, 2, 3, 45, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12.
[0031] In a preferred embodiment, the strength of the micro-magnetic field generated by the anterior region 15 is 20-25 mT, the strength of the micro-magnetic field generated by the premolar region 16 is 15-20 mT and the strength of the micro-magnetic field generated by the molar region 17 is 10-15 mT. Different tooth positions require different micro-magnetic field strengths, which can meet the individual needs of teeth in different regions for the magnetic field during orthodontic treatment.
[0032] In some embodiments, in a pair of buccal magnet 1 and lingual magnet 2, the magnetic pole directions of the buccal magnet 1 and the lingual magnet 2 are arranged in the same direction in the connection direction of the buccal magnet 1 and the lingual magnet 2.
[0033] The connection direction of the buccal magnet 1 and the lingual magnet 2 of each pair is through the teeth, and a micro-magnetic field is formed between the buccal magnet 1 and the lingual magnet 2 of each pair, acting on the root of the teeth between the buccal magnet 1 and the lingual magnet 2, in order to better form a micro-magnetic field between the buccal magnet 1 and the lingual magnet 2, the magnetic pole directions of the buccal magnet 1 and the lingual magnet 2 in the direction through the teeth are the same. Because all magnets have N poles and S poles, the direction of the magnetic field between the magnets is from N pole back to S pole, therefore, when the magnetic pole directions between the buccal magnet 1 and the lingual magnet 2 of each pair are the same, the magnets on both sides of the teeth placed in the receiving space 14 can better form a micro-magnetic field acting on the teeth.
[0034] For example, the cheek magnet 1 may have a south pole in the direction toward the teeth and a north pole in the direction away from the teeth, and the lingual magnet 2 has a north pole in the direction toward the teeth and a south pole in the direction away from the teeth, so that in the connection direction between the cheek magnet 1 and the lingual magnet 2, the magnetic poles of the cheek magnet 1 and the lingual magnet 2 are the same, and the direction of the micro-magnetic field is such that the north pole of the lingual magnet 2 and the south pole of the cheek magnet 1 face each other, acting on the teeth.
[0035] In other embodiments, the side of the buccal magnet 1 closest to the teeth may be the north pole and the side away from the teeth may be the south pole, and correspondingly, the side of the lingual magnet 2 closest to the teeth may be the south pole and the side away from the teeth may be the north pole.
[0036] Based on any of the above embodiments, optionally, the buccal magnet 1 is removably installed on the buccal plate 11, and the lingual magnet 2 is removably installed on the lingual plate 12. When the buccal magnet 1 and the lingual magnet 2 are removably installed, the magnetic field adjustable micro-magnetic orthodontic accelerator 10 can change the micro-magnets at different settings according to different magnetic field needs of different treatment stages, different teeth, and different patients during orthodontic treatment. According to the magnetic field required by different tooth positions at different patients and different treatment stages, the corresponding micro-magnets are installed at the corresponding tooth positions, and the construction of personalized micro-magnetic environments is realized, thereby meeting the individual needs for magnetic fields at different times and different areas during orthodontic treatment.
[0037] The strength of the micro-magnets of the magnetic field adjustable orthodontic accelerator 10 can be flexibly adjusted, and the magnetic fields generated by the micro-magnets in different regions correspond to different tooth positions, and their working ranges are consistent with the anatomical shapes of Asian dentition. Micro-magnets with different magnetic field strengths can be used in different orthodontic treatment periods and different tooth positions, which can meet the personalized clinical needs of different patients in a more targeted manner, effectively control the remodeling activity of orthodontic periodontal tissues, increase the orthodontic tooth movement speed, reduce side effects, and realize accurate and personalized accelerated orthodontic treatment.
[0038] In an optional embodiment, referring to Figures 5 and 6, a groove 40 is provided on the buccal plate 11 and the lingual plate 12 respectively, and the groove 40 has a shape of a closed opening, that is, the length and width of the opening of the groove 40 are smaller than the length and width of its internal space, the buccal magnet 1 and the lingual magnet 2 are inserted into the buccal plate 11 and the lingual plate 12 respectively through the groove 40, and the open end of the groove 40 forms a lock of the buccal magnet 1 and the lingual magnet 2. Both the buccal plate 11 and the lingual plate 12 are formed of an elastic material, and the opening of the groove 40 is smaller than the internal space. The elasticity of the opening of the groove 40 can be utilized to insert the buccal magnet 1 and the lingual magnet 2 into the groove 40. After the buccal magnet 1 and the lingual magnet 2 enter the groove 40, the opening of the groove 40 returns to its original shape, and because the opening is small, the buccal magnet 1 and the lingual magnet 2 can be locked, so that the buccal magnet 1 and the lingual magnet 2 will not fall off, and there is no risk of the patient swallowing them.
[0039] In some embodiments, the support plate 13, the buccal plate 11 and the lingual plate 12 are made of silicone material, and the silicone material includes soft silicone or hard silicone, where soft silicone has the advantages of strong elasticity and plasticity, and hard silicone has the advantages of high hardness and strong fatigue resistance, and hard silicone has the advantages of high hardness and strong fatigue resistance. Figures 7 and 8 show actual diagrams of the magnetic field adjustable micro-magnetic orthodontic accelerator 10 of the present application, and the magnetic field adjustable micro-magnetic orthodontic accelerator 10 in the form of a transparent orthodontic bridge is made of silicone material.
[0040] Silicone has good biocompatibility, does not irritate human tissue, is non-toxic, has no allergic reactions, has very little rejection by the body, has excellent physical and chemical properties, can maintain its original elasticity and softness without being decomposed even when in contact with body fluids and tissues, and is a fairly stable inert substance. It can withstand high temperatures and can be sterilized. It is easy to process and mold, easy to process and carve into shapes, and easy to use. It is wear-resistant, has good water resistance, and has a long service life.
[0041] By using silicone material, after the patient bites the support plate 13, the magnetic field adjustable micro-magnetic orthodontic accelerator 10 will not cause occlusal burden to the patient, the surface of the accelerator is smooth and round, will not damage the oral mucosa, and has excellent comfort and safety when worn. The micro-magnet can be stably attached to the orthodontic accelerator, and the micro-magnet will not come off when attaching or detaching the accelerator, which will not cause the patient to choke. The small size and no box-type power source outside the oral cavity make it easy to wear and carry, and will not affect the patient's daily life.
[0042] Hereinafter, the embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with specific examples. Those skilled in the art will understand that the following examples are only used to explain the present application and should not be considered as limiting the scope of the present disclosure. Conditions not specifically described in the examples shall follow conventional conditions or conditions recommended by the manufacturer. If the manufacturer of the reagent or equipment used is not described, conventional products available on the market shall be used.
[0043] Example 1 As shown in Figures 9 and 10, the magnetic field distribution detection of the magnetic field adjustable micro-magnetic orthodontic accelerator, three levels of micro-magnets I, II, and III are respectively arranged in the micro-magnet grooves of the anterior region 15, the premolar region 16, and the molar region 17 of the buccal plate 11 and the lingual plate 12, and the magnetic field adjustable micro-magnetic orthodontic accelerator 10 is placed on a horizontal plane, and a high-precision industrial Gaussmeter driven in three dimensions by an external motor is used to measure the three-dimensional spatial magnetic field distribution of the magnetic field adjustable micro-magnetic orthodontic accelerator, and the results are shown in Figure 11, which shows that a magnetic field of about 20-25 mT is formed in the root region of the anterior teeth, a magnetic field of about 15-20 mT is formed in the root region of the premolar teeth, and a magnetic field of about 10-15 mT is formed in the root region of the molar teeth.
[0044] After the magnetic field strength test, it is found that the micro-magnetic field strength generated by the micro-magnetic orthodontic accelerator is about 10mT-30mT, which is consistent with the physiological level, and regardless of the horizontal or vertical direction, the magnetic field is mainly distributed in the root area, and the magnetic field strength in other areas is weak, so that the micro-magnetic effect can be effectively concentrated on the teeth and alveolar bone that need acceleration.
[0045] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present disclosure include: The magnetic field adjustable micro-magnetic orthodontic accelerator provided by the embodiments of the present application creates a micro-magnetic field environment around the root of the tooth to be moved during orthodontic treatment, effectively compensates for the loss of physiological magnetic field caused by the pulling of the tooth by the orthodontic accessories, and further promotes the metabolism and remodeling of the periodontal tissue of the tooth to be moved, and accelerates the process of orthodontic tooth movement. The strength of the micro-magnets of the magnetic field adjustable orthodontic accelerator can be flexibly adjusted, and the magnetic fields generated by the micro-magnets in different regions correspond to different tooth positions, and their effective range is consistent with the anatomical shape of Asian dentition. Micromagnets with different magnetic field strengths can be used in different orthodontic treatment periods and different tooth positions, meeting the personalized clinical needs of different patients in a more targeted manner, effectively controlling the remodeling activity of orthodontic periodontal tissues, enhancing the speed of orthodontic tooth movement, reducing side effects, and realizing precise, personalized, and accelerated orthodontic treatment. By using silicone material, after the patient bites the support plate, the accelerator will not cause occlusal burden to the patient, the surface of the accelerator is smooth and round, will not hurt the oral mucosa, and has good comfort and safety when worn. The micro-magnet can be stably attached to the orthodontic accelerator, and the micro-magnet will not come off when the accelerator is attached or detached, which will not cause the patient to choke. The small size and no box-type power supply outside the oral cavity make it easy to wear and carry, and will not affect the patient's daily life. In addition, the material used is odorless and non-toxic, has stable chemical and physical properties, is wear-resistant, has good water resistance, and has a long service life.
