Problems solved by technology

[0008] However, the devices disclosed in the above-mentioned patent documents 1 and 2 all receive ultrasonic vibrations given from the outside by pressing the ultrasonic supply head against the surface of the cheek skin, for example, so there is a problem of not being able to efficiently correct the teeth of the object of correction. The problem of imparting ultrasonic vibration
In addition, since each of the above-mentioned devices requires an ultrasonic generator, there is also a problem that the treatment cannot be continued unless a dental hospital equipped with the device is available.

Embodiment Construction

[0035] Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0036] figure 1 It is a perspective view showing the state where the dental mouthpiece 7 according to the first embodiment of the present invention is attached to the lower jaw of the user (patient); figure 2 From figure 1 See the sectional view of the section line II-II. The orthodontic device of the first embodiment includes the mouthpiece 7 and the vibration actuator 8 , and the vibration actuator 8 is a vibrating element installed on the mouthpiece 7 .

[0037] The mouthpiece 7 is not used together with an orthodontic device composed of wires, brackets, etc., but is directly attached to the user's dentition 3, and the mouthpiece 7 itself imparts an orthodontic force to the dentition. Such as figure 2 As shown, the mouthpiece 7 has an inner part 7A directly contacting the dentition 3 and an outer part 7B covered outside the inne...

Abstract

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a dentition rectification device, which does not use a dentition rectifier including line and carriage, and can rectify the dentition in a shorter time. The device includes: a tooth sleeve (7) mounted on the dentition and a oscillation-starting element (8). The tooth sleeve (7) has a shape having force to make rectified tooth face to right direction under the state of being mounted on the dentition. The oscillation-starting element (8) is installed on the tooth sleeve (7) to generate mechanical vibration and apply the vibration to the rectified tooth, thereby reconstructing activation of tooth and bone of gullet bone, and increasing rectification effect.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to orthodontic devices. Background technique [0002] Hitherto, as an orthodontic device, an orthodontic device having a wire attached to a tooth row is known. The resiliency possessed by the wire acts as a defined static load on the dentition to correct the alignment or occlusion of the teeth. That is, the principle of the orthodontic device is that when a predetermined force is applied to the dentition, the alveolar bone supporting the teeth in the gum is gradually deformed (Bone Remodeling) to correct the dentition. [0003] However, the above-mentioned orthodontic treatment using wires takes a long time (6 months at the fastest, usually several years) until it is completely cured. This very long treatment time brings a heavy burden to patients, which may be the reason why patients give up treatment. [0004] In order to shorten the time for such dentition correction, a technique of imparting a vibration force to the...
