Adjustable near-infrared orthodontic accelerator for realizing precise treatment

Abstract

The invention relates to an adjustable near-infrared orthodontic accelerator capable of realizing precise treatment, which comprises a tooth bottom sleeve and a tooth peripheral sleeve, the tooth bottom sleeve and the tooth peripheral sleeve form a U-shaped tooth socket structure, a light inlet window is arranged in the middle of the tooth peripheral sleeve, chutes are arranged on the tooth peripheral sleeve on the upper side and the lower side of the light inlet window, a plurality of laser emitting devices are slidably arranged in the chutes side by side, each laser emitting device comprises a base and sliding plates arranged at the upper end and the lower end of the base, the sliding plates are arranged in the chutes, and infrared laser lamps are arranged on the bases. The low-intensity near-infrared light is utilized to irradiate teeth to accelerate tooth movement, the laser irradiation area is controllably adjusted while orthodontic treatment is assisted, the laser action range is more accurate, the accuracy and speed of orthodontic treatment are guaranteed, the temperature rise of materials is small after long-term use, the safety is high, the light source is tightly attached to gingiva, a patient can achieve retention without occlusion, the comfort degree is high, the size is small, and carrying is convenient.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of dental orthodontic instruments, in particular to an adjustable near-infrared orthodontic accelerator for precise treatment. Background technique: [0002] At present, the incidence of dental and maxillofacial deformities in my country is as high as 29.3%, which seriously affects the physical and mental health and oral and jaw functions of patients. However, according to research, the tooth movement speed during orthodontic treatment is generally 0.8-1.2mm / month. Generally, it is 18-36 months. A longer treatment process will increase the risks of enamel demineralization, dental caries, root resorption, gingival inflammation and periodontal disease, and lead to lower patient compliance, which will seriously affect the treatment effect and oral health. Therefore, it is urgent to find a safe and effective way to accelerate orthodontic tooth movement. Most of the existing orthodontic accelerators promote the ...

Problems solved by technology

[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an adjustable near-infrared orthodontic accelerator for precise treatment, which solves the problem that the laser irradiation position cannot be adjusted with the movement of the teeth in the prior art, which affects the accuracy and speed of orthodontic treatment. The patient needs to keep the upper and lower teeth clenched to fix the accelerator, which may easily cause fatigue of the masticatory muscles and temporomandibular joints, and affect pronunciation, and the circuit box outside the oral cavity also greatly increases its volume and weight, which is not convenient for daily carrying and use.
