Description

External self-adjusting repair device for children mouth breathing and bruxism

Technical Field

The invention relates to the field of life beauty of people, in particular to an external self-regulation repair device for mouth breathing and bruxism of children in the physical development period (primary school and middle school).

Background

Mouth breathing mostly exists simultaneously with bruxism, and the two often influence each other. Bruxism, also known as protruding mouth, has a large negative impact on the appearance and appearance, and also affects the normal functions of the oral cavity, such as chewing, pronunciation, breathing and even swallowing. The outbreak of the bruxism is mainly caused by congenital heredity and acquired poor habits. Acquired bad habits comprise mouth breathing, tongue spitting, lip biting, finger biting, sucking and the like; habitual mouth breathing can cause and aggravate bruxism, and the bruxism can be improved to different degrees after mouth breathing correction.

Mouth breathing, i.e. mouth-open breathing, including waking and sleeping states, is commonly seen in habitual and secondary (such as cold with nasal obstruction and stuffy nose without ventilation), and the former is more common; an exposed tooth refers to a protrusion of a tooth and/or jaw bone (also referred to as a pseudoprotrusion and a true protrusion), and the exposed tooth is generally referred to as including three types: 1. maxillary protrusion, commonly known as bucktooth (hereinafter referred to as type B), mandibular protrusion, commonly known as diguantian (hereinafter referred to as type D), and 3 maxillary protrusion, commonly known as convex mouth (hereinafter referred to as type T). Bruxism and mouth breathing have different degrees of manifestation during childhood development, and there are a number of factors that influence their outcome: firstly, because of the factors of work, study, time, treatment cost and the like, some parents usually do nothing, give up correction and do their development, which causes the appearance of the face to be seriously affected later and finally or regrettably lifelong; secondly, some parents are not suitable for the early development stage of the children with bruxism and mouth breathing, and only need to go to the hospital for correction after the body is mature, but the bruxism hospital after the body is mature mainly adopts the corrector for treatment, and the method for the corrector treatment generally comprises the steps of fixing two ends of a steel wire on a dental bed, tensioning the steel wire by force and needing to be forced to the hospital regularly so as to ensure that the bruxism is pressed backwards for correction; the correction treatment cost is high, the compliance is poor, the treatment period is long, the eating is troublesome during the treatment period, and only fluid and soft food can be drunk, and strong perseverance is needed. Although the appliance method can correct and treat the bruxism, the position of the jaw protrusion (true protrusion) can not move backwards, and the whole lip still has the outward protrusion phenomenon, so the problem can not be fundamentally solved; thirdly, the eruption teeth after the body development is mature can be subjected to surgical orthodontic treatment, although the surgical orthodontic treatment is effective, the operation difficulty is high, the risk is high, the human body has pain and wound risks, the treatment cost is high, and people are often reluctant to select and are not acceptable. With the improvement of aesthetic interest and the pursuit of happiness of people, parents pay more attention to and pay more attention to the mouth breathing-brute force phenomenon of children, and the parents expect that the mouth breathing and the brute force children can be simply, conveniently and effectively corrected in the development period.

The invention achieves the beauty effect of correcting mouth breathing and gradually retracting protrudent teeth and jaw parts by wearing the external repair regulator on the maxillofacial part. The self-adjusting repair device in vitro needs to be worn frequently and for a long time (mainly during night sleep and including day time selection) by children in the developmental stage until the expected effect is achieved. For this purpose, it is necessary to technically solve the feasibility and reliability of achieving the intended target and objective effect after wearing, and to take into consideration compliance, comfort, safety, convenience and adjustability when wearing. In contrast, the technical scheme adopted by the inventor is to innovate the following aspects while integrating materials science, geometric mechanics and appearance combination: 1. selecting materials and carrying out surface treatment; 2. mechanical combination and geometric molding; 3. the acting direction and the tension are adjustable; 4. the prosthesis contacts local skin protection.

The invention has the following materials: the flat shape is suitable for and increases the contact surface of the human skin, the braided elastic band with the characteristics of convenience for processing and fixation and the like is strong in plasticity and good in softness; the flexible nylon snap fastener is used for forming the tension regulator; the width and thickness of the two are selected according to the age, weight and body type of the wearer and are integrally formed.

And (3) material mechanical combination: the general requirement of mechanical combination 1, the compound function of synchronous correction in four aspects of considering mouth breathing and three types of exposed teeth (B, D, T) is realized; 2. only one type of the bruxism needs to be repaired, but the function of the bruxism can be selected respectively; 3. only habitual mouth-opening breathing is corrected. The specific composition comprises three parts of a maxillary branch, a mandibular branch and an upper and lower occlusal branch; wherein the upper jaw support and the lower jaw support are combined by taking the right middle of the back of the neck pillow part as a fulcrum; a tension adjusting device is arranged between the upper occlusion branch and the lower occlusion branch; the two ends of the upper and lower occlusal branches are respectively combined with the maxillary branch and the mandibular branch (the left and right oral angle sides), the maxillary branch of the prosthesis is arc-shaped and pasted on the maxillary lip, and the two ends are annularly fixed at the back part of the neck, so as to form a mechanical effect of pulling the upper teeth and the upper jaw backwards; the lower jaw support is arc-shaped and applied to the lip of the lower jaw, and two ends of the arc-shaped lower jaw support are fixed at the back of the neck in an annular shape and are fused with the fixed point of the upper jaw support to form a mechanical effect of pulling the lower teeth and the lower jaw backwards; the upper and lower occlusal branches support the chin and form traction in the occlusal direction of the upper and lower jaws by means of the upper and lower branch joints respectively, thereby achieving the mechanical effect of closing the upper and lower lips.

The tension of the three acting forces can be flexibly adjusted by respective tension regulators. No matter the type of the bruxism with mouth breathing, after the children find the young and the trend in the developmental stage, the correction mode which has comprehensive correction effect, good compliance, safety, simplicity and convenience and is willing to be accepted by the children and parents is selected actively, and the method is the psychological demand of the parents. The invention can meet the requirements of people for synchronously correcting mouth breathing and repairing bruxism.

The invention is characterized in that: the restorer can be worn in the period of children in the development period according to the protruding degree of upper and lower teeth and jaw and whether the mouth is accompanied with respiration, the tension adjusting devices of the upper jaw branch, the lower jaw branch and the upper and lower biting jaw branches are respectively adjusted, and the mechanical action site, action direction, action angle and action force are flexibly changed according to different conditions so as to adapt to various different types and different degrees of bruxism and mouth respiration, and simultaneously, the restorer is favorable for selecting and applying between a comprehensive function and a certain single function. Therefore, the effects of correcting breath, and repairing bucktooth, ground bugle, and convex mouth of different degrees can be achieved simultaneously or respectively.

Because this material is with novel wearing time relatively longer, and have certain surface tension, the braces can produce certain oppression to local skin, probably influence local tissue blood to a certain extent, for avoiding this risk, from the security consideration, set up the wave type TPU bed course that is made with the software material at the interval with braid over braid combined molding inner surface (with skin contact surface), specific technical scheme is that its material internal surface is set off and is held in the palm), it is the point slice intermittent pressure to reach the local tissue bulk coherence pressurized of pressurized, so pressurized local tissue can establish collateral circulation, improve local blood supply, avoid skin injury.

Compared with the prior art, the invention has the advantages and characteristics that:

1. traditional steel wire appliances can only be used in the young stage. Children in the development stage are in the period of primary teeth-permanent teeth alternation, and the loss of teeth is common, so that the children in the age stage are difficult to adapt to.

2. The traditional steel wire appliance can only aim at a certain bruxism type and lacks the effect of comprehensively repairing composite bruxism and mouth breathing.

3. The traditional steel wire appliance can only repair the tooth extrusions, and cannot repair the upper or lower jaw extrusion.

4. The finger pressure of the upper lip and the lower lip has a certain effect on the outward protrusion of teeth, but the compliance and the continuity of children are poor; moreover, the repair effect is unsatisfactory because of the failure to achieve persistence.

The lip paste can improve mouth breathing by sticking upper and lower lip skins, but cannot realize the mechanical traction effect of muscles, ligaments and jawbone, so that the aim of repairing the exposed teeth cannot be fulfilled; the lip stick also has the disadvantage of local skin damage.

Compared with the prior art, the invention has the innovative salient points that: 1. effectively correct single mouth breathing; 2. the comprehensive restoration method has a one-step comprehensive restoration effect on three different types, different degrees of buckteeth (bucktooth, ground buckeye, convex mouth) and external respiration, and can be called 'one stone four bird'; 3. the method can be singly selected for different bruxism types; 4. can be adapted to the sudden teeth (including the tooth external process or the bony jaw process) of different reasons. The invention can provide a prosthesis with perfect functions for mouth breathing and various types of sudden teeth of children in the developmental stage, does not influence normal breathing, diet and other physiological functions in wearing and use, has very good comfort level and compliance, and has the characteristics of convenient material taking, simple processing, convenient use, low treatment cost, safety and effectiveness.
