Definitions
- the present invention relates to an extension made to the use of electro-anesthesia equipment preferably used in the field of dental care.
- Oe electronic device is based on the use of direct currents and it is the subject of a previous patent application of the applicant, published under the number 2 659 241. Schematically, it includes a control box and interchangeable electrodes according the mode of use chosen by the practitioner. One of the electrodes consists of the tool used during the intervention
- the second electrode is none other than a body gripping member, held by the patient.
- the two are therefore in simultaneous contact with two places on the patient's body when the practitioner performs his intervention, and the electrical circuit is closed during the working time of the tool in the mouth.
- the direct current source makes it possible to obtain adjustable currents in micro-ammeter and milli-ammeter scales, the uses of which are adapted to the various applications of the device.
- This comprises means for adjusting the intensity, switching the polarities and / or scale, a means for visual control of the intensity of one or more electrical signals, as well as electrically switchable outputs.
- the anesthetic threshold can be quickly adapted by modifying the intensity of the current, or even the current scale, as the case may be.
- the device lends itself to this ease of adjustment, given its simplicity arising from the fact that it is only a simple current source, the intensity of which can be modified by a wheel located on the housing.
- the tool is then in contact with the dentin, and the current is transmitted to the dentin via the metal electrode constituted by said tool, via the cutter. It is therefore the tool itself which induces the anesthetic effect.
- REPLACEMENT SHEET From the practitioner's point of view, in addition to the great flexibility of use already mentioned, one can also cite the immediate anesthetic effect and reduced to the sole duration of the intervention, the immediate and permanent control of the sensitivity, the total absence of toxicity, the absence of allergic risk, etc. To this must be added the less purely scientific dimension of the participation of the patient who reacts to the stimuli felt. The therapy / patient binomial thus reconstituted, each participates in the intervention, as an actor.
- the very nature of the treatment obtained by vibrations of a point placed in contact with the enamel, seemed an obstacle.
- the vibrations can for example be carried out by means of a piezoelectric type system powered by a source of electrical energy leading to the production of ultrasonic mechanical vibrations through the piezoelectric crystal.
- a piezoelectric type system powered by a source of electrical energy leading to the production of ultrasonic mechanical vibrations through the piezoelectric crystal.
- the invention therefore relates to a new use of an electro-anesthesia apparatus otherwise known and described by the applicant, based on an adjustable direct current source, conventionally used exclusively in contact with dentin because of the presuppositions concerning the action of direct electric current, with a view to descaling the non-conductive enamel. This takes place by means of any descaling instrument connected by a specific process to the electronic unit of the apparatus and serving as an electro-anesthesia electrode.
- the device can also be used for periodontic care such as periodontal curettage.
- one of the adequate micro-current scales is between 1 ⁇ A and 28 ⁇ A, and the other between 0.1 mA and 2.8 mA, depending on the sensitivity of the patient. It should be noted that these intervals are different from that which was used for more conventional dental applications relating to the applicant's previous application. According to another new use of the device of the depositor, it has been realized during tests that it potentiates the effects of traditional chemical anesthetics which are injected into the jaw of the patient.
- the currents chosen can be in the ⁇ A or mA scale, with an electrode polarized mostly positively, although it is also possible to polarize it negatively.
- the combination of the effects of the device with those of an injected anesthetic substance, such as articaine or lignocaine makes it possible to reduce the quantity of this substance from 1/5 to 1/8, in the affected mouth areas, with all the benefits that come with it.
