Abstract

The splint has a sensor (2) for measuring mechanical data such as vibration and pressure in a mouth of a patient. The data are processed by a processing unit. The processing unit transmits data to a telemetry unit. The telemetry unit receives data and transfer data to a transmission unit e.g. personal computer, where the sensor, amplified electronics, processing unit, telemetry unit form a sensor unit.

Description

Grundlage ist eine Aufbiss-Schiene (1) welche zur Diagnose und Behandlung eines Bruxismus („Zähneknirschen") eingesetzt wird. Solche Aufbiss-Schienen sind Stand der Technik.The basis is a bite rail ( 1 ) which is used for the diagnosis and treatment of bruxism ("teeth grinding") .These bite splints are state of the art.

Die Apparatur soll zusätzlich mit einer Messsensorik versehen werden, welche den Zahnanpressdruck und Zähneknirschen erfassen soll. Zusätzlich sollen Vibrationen, Temperatur und andere physiologische Messgrößen erfasst werden.The Apparatus should be additional be provided with a measuring sensor, which the Zahnanpressdruck and teeth grinding should capture. additionally should detect vibrations, temperature and other physiological parameters become.

Ein Sensor (2) z.B. eine Piezofolie, piezoresistiver Sensor oder eine Luftblase mit Drucksensor erfassen den Anpressdruck zwischen Ober- und Unterkiefer. Der Sensor (2) kann über mehrere Zähne verteilt angebracht sein. Die vom Sensor (2) gemessenen Werte werden von einer Verstärkerelektronik (3) verstärkt und von einer Verarbeitungseinheit (4) digital durch einen Mikroprozessor gewandelt und verarbeitet oder auch analog gewandelt bzw. verarbeitet. Die Verarbeitungseinheit (4) überträgt die Daten an eine Telemetrieeinheit (5) zur Weiterleitung nach außen. Die Telemetrieeinheit (5) kann auch Konfigurationsdaten für die Verarbeitungseinheit (4) empfangen.A sensor ( 2 ) eg a piezo foil, piezoresistive sensor or an air bubble with pressure sensor detect the contact pressure between upper and lower jaw. The sensor ( 2 ) can be distributed over several teeth. The from the sensor ( 2 ) are measured by an amplifier electronics ( 3 ) and from a processing unit ( 4 ) digitally converted by a microprocessor and processed or converted or processed analogously. The processing unit ( 4 ) transmits the data to a telemetry unit ( 5 ) for forwarding to the outside. The telemetry unit ( 5 ) can also store configuration data for the processing unit ( 4 ) received.

Sensor (2), Verstärkerelektronik (3), Verarbeitungseinheit (4), Telemetrieeinheit (5) und die Energieversorgung (6) bilden die Sensoreinheit (7), welche in die Aufbiss-Schiene (1) integriert wird.Sensor ( 2 ), Amplifier electronics ( 3 ), Processing unit ( 4 ), Telemetry unit ( 5 ) and the energy supply ( 6 ) form the sensor unit ( 7 ), which in the bite rail ( 1 ) is integrated.

Die gesamte Sensoreinheit kann komplett mit in die Aufbiss-Schiene (1) vergossen werden und ist damit vollkommen versiegelt.The entire sensor unit can be completely integrated into the bite rail ( 1 ) and is thus completely sealed.

Die so von der Sensoreinheit gesammelten Daten werden über die Radio-Frequenz Telemetrieeinheit (5) drahtlos an eine Weiterleitungseinheit (7) übertragen. Diese Weiterleitungseinheit (7) kann z.B. ein RF-Empfänger mit Mobiltelefon, PDA, PC oder sonstiges Spezialgerät sein. Die Daten können direkt in der Weiterleitungseinheit (6) anzeigt und bearbeitet werden oder an ein Datenbanksystem (8) weitergeleitet werden, in dem die weitere Verarbeitung stattfinden kann.The data thus collected by the sensor unit are transmitted via the radio-frequency telemetry unit ( 5 ) wirelessly to a forwarding unit ( 7 ) transfer. This forwarding unit ( 7 ) can be eg an RF receiver with mobile phone, PDA, PC or other special device. The data can be stored directly in the forwarding unit ( 6 ) and edited or to a database system ( 8th ), where further processing can take place.
