It has its technical spirit to the extent that it can be implemented.

1 to 2, the apparatus 100 for treating a jaw joint according to the present invention includes a flat plate 110, an anterior rod 120, and a posterior rod 130.

In the following description, the anterior teeth are understood as regions including central incisors, lateral incisors, and canines among adult users' dentition (e.g., upper teeth or lower teeth) when wearing the jaw joint treatment device 100, and the posterior teeth are The area includes the first and second premolars, the first and second and third molars, or both the first and second premolar, first and second premolar and third molar It is desirable to understand it as an area to be included.

The flat plate 110 is formed in a U-shaped plate shape to form a dentition impression on the upper and lower surfaces, and the anterior tooth penetration part 111 between the upper and lower surfaces of the portion where the anterior tooth impression is formed among the dentition Is formed to penetrate the tongue side and the lip side, and the posterior tooth penetrating portion 112 is formed to penetrate the tongue side and the cheek side between the upper and lower surfaces of the portion where the impression of both posterior teeth is formed.

An upper tooth impression is formed on the upper surface of the flat plate portion 110, and a lower tooth impression is formed on the lower surface.

The flat plate portion 110 is caused by the pressure of the anterior and posterior teeth applied to the upper and lower surfaces for a predetermined pressing time (eg, about 30 seconds) while being heated to a predetermined ductility change temperature (eg, 70 to 80°C). Thus, a dental impression including at least one of an anterior gap for treatment of the jaw joint and a gap for a posterior tooth for treatment of a jaw joint is formed, and when heat is radiated below the ductile change temperature after the formation of the dental impression, a previously formed dental impression is performed. Keep.

The flat plate 110 is preferably made of a material that is harmless to the human body that has been sanitary verified and certified. For example, when heated to the above-described ductility change temperature, it is The shape may be deformed, and if heat dissipated below the ductility change temperature after the above-described formation deformation, it may be made of silicon that maintains the previously formed shape.

It is preferable that the anterior tooth penetration part 111 has a structure of an anterior-gwang-back narrow formed in which the lip side entrance width is wider than the tongue side exit width.

It is preferable that the posterior tooth penetration part 112 has a structure of a front-gross-back narrowing formed in which the cheek-side entrance width is wider than the tongue-side outlet width.
