BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention is intended to prevent tooth wobble by strengthening the periodontal ligament existing between the teeth and the gingiva and the cavities, and at the same time, to improve the periodontal ligament vibrating device for treating temporomandibular disorders. It is a device related to.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As shown in FIG. 4, a gingiva 10 and a periodontal ligament 11 are present between the gingiva 10 and the calyx 12 to firmly fix the tooth on the outer peripheral surface of the tooth root 9c. ,
The way the food is cooked changes greatly, and since all foods are softly cooked and eaten, the periodontal ligament 11 existing between the tooth root 9c and the gingiva 10 and the cavernous bone 12 is not stimulated,
The reality is that the periodontal ligament 11 is gradually weakened and the periodontal ligament 11 existing on the outer peripheral surface of the tooth root 9c is degenerated. Therefore, in order to strengthen the periodontal ligament 11, in order to stimulate the periodontal ligament 11 existing between the tooth root 9c and the gingiva 10 and the gingival bone 12, a finger is applied to the gingiva 10 and pressed with a fingertip to give stimulation. The periodontal ligament 11 is strengthened, or the gums 10 are directly rubbed with a brush to give stimulation to strengthen the periodontal ligament 11 to prevent tooth wobble, temporomandibular disorders and the like.

However, the gingival 10 is pressed only with a finger or stimulated with a brush, which is only a local irritation. In order to prevent tooth wobbling and temporomandibular disorders, the periodontal ligament of all teeth is stimulated and It was not enough to uniformly strengthen the periodontal ligament of the teeth and mandibular teeth.

[0004]

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION In the present invention, the periodontal ligament existing between the tooth root, the gingiva, and the cavum is attached to the vibrator of the present invention between the occlusal surface of the maxillary tooth and the occlusal surface of the mandibular tooth. Place the oral insertion part, and apply the vibration stimulus of the vertical movement by the vibrator uniformly to the periodontal ligament existing between the root and the gingiva and the cavities, and strengthen the periodontal ligament existing between the root and the gingiva and the cavities, An object of the present invention is to provide a periodontal ligament-enhanced vibrator for preventing tooth wobbling and temporomandibular disorders.

[0005]

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a periodontal ligament reinforced vibrator comprising a vibrator and an intraoral insertion part, and a vibrating part of the vibrating part having a core material inside and being formed into a U-shape. The periodontal membrane reinforced vibrator is configured such that the portion is detachable and the vibrator is provided with a power switch and a changeover switch.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Next, the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the entire periodontal ligament reinforced vibrator according to the present invention,
Reference numeral 1 is a vibrating machine, and this vibrating machine is provided with a vibration transmitting section 5 for transmitting the vibration generated by the vibrating machine.
An intraoral insertion portion 6 is detachably attached to the vibration transmitting portion 5. The intraoral insertion portion 6 is formed in a bifurcated shape and includes a left curved portion 6a and a right curved portion 6b, and the left and right curved portions 6a and 6 shown in FIG.
b front surface 6b, 6c and the left and right curved portion back surface 6 shown in FIG.
The occlusal surface 9a of the maxillary tooth and the occlusal surface 9a of the mandibular tooth are applied to e6f. Surfaces 6b and 6c of the left and right curved portions 6a and 6b
Also, the occlusal surfaces 9a of the maxillary teeth and the occlusal surfaces 9a of the mandibular teeth are in close contact with the back surfaces 6e and 6f of the left and right curved portions shown in FIG. 2 and are fitted to the occlusal surfaces so that vibrations are effectively transmitted. Concavities and convexities may be formed. The intraoral insertion portion 6 is preferably formed of a soft synthetic resin in order to protect the upper jaw teeth and the lower jaw teeth and make them easy to use. Reference numeral 2 is a power switch for vibrating the vibrator 1, and reference numeral 3 is a changeover switch for setting the strength of vibration. In FIG. 1, the changeover switch 3 has three set buttons so that only three stages can be set, but the set buttons may be added if necessary. It is most effective to vibrate the oral insertion portion 6 in the vertical direction as indicated by the arrow in FIGS. Reference numeral 4 denotes a power supply code, which is connected to a power supply for vibrating the vibrator 1,
May be a vibrator driven by a structure in which a dry battery (not shown) is built in. When driven by a dry battery, the power cord is unnecessary. In addition, the remote control
The structure may be such that

FIG. 2 is a sectional view taken along the line AB of FIG. 1, in which the core members 7a and 7b are embedded in the left curved portion 6a and the right curved portion 6b of the intraoral insertion portion 6, respectively. By holding these core members 7a and 7b so that the left bending portion 6a and the right bending portion 6b of the intraoral insertion portion 6 are not bent,
This is for facilitating insertion into the mouth and for effectively transmitting vibrations to the molars so that the periodontal ligament of the premolars / premolars and molars can be uniformly strengthened. In FIG. 2, only two core members 7a and 7b are embedded in the left curved portion 6a and the right curved portion 6b, respectively.
-The number of 7b may be increased to one or three or more. The core materials 7a and 7b are preferably made of iron or stainless steel, but are not necessarily limited to these materials.

FIG. 3 shows a periodontal membrane-enhanced vibrator according to the present invention inserted into the mouth, sandwiched between the maxillary teeth and the mandibular teeth so as to be bitten by the occlusal surfaces of the maxillary teeth and the occlusal surfaces of the mandibular teeth. It is a side view showing the state where the device was installed and the vibrator 1 was vibrated in the arrow direction. First, after inserting the intraoral insertion part 6 into the mouth between the upper jaw teeth 8 and the lower jaw teeth 9 so as to be bitten by the upper jaw teeth and the lower jaw teeth, the power switch 2 is turned on to drive the vibrator 6 to drive the upper jaw teeth and the lower jaw teeth. The lower jaw teeth are vibrated up and down as shown by the arrow, and the occlusal surface 9
Vibration stimulation is applied to the periodontal ligament 11 in the order of a → crown portion 9b → root 9c.

FIG. 4 is a plan view showing another embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the vibrator 1 has a substantially hemispherical shape and the core member 7a embedded in the mouth insertion portion 6 is shown. 1
It is a book structure. Reference numerals 7c and 7d are protrusions for attaching to and detaching from the vibration transmitting unit 5.

The vibrator 1 shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 has a horizontally long cubic shape, and the vibrator 1 shown in FIG. 4 has a substantially hemispherical shape, but the vibrator 1 has these shapes. The shape is not limited and may be formed in a vertically long shape. Further, it may be formed in a horizontally long sphere or a vertically long sphere. Then, the outside of the vibrator may be covered with a soft material. This is to prevent the lips from being scratched even when the lips come into contact with the vibrator 1.

[0011]

As described above, by using the periodontal ligament reinforced vibrator of the present invention, the periodontal ligament is strengthened while being stimulated by vibration, so that the tooth is firmly supported by the gingiva and the cavities. , Has the effect of strengthening the teeth. Further, because the vibration strengthens the periodontal ligament existing between the teeth and the gingiva and the talus, it is possible to treat temporomandibular disorders by using the massus muscle of the masseter, and to make the oral insertion part detachable. By replacing the intraoral insertion part according to the tooth profile of each individual, there is an effect that it becomes possible to perform appropriate individual treatment. In addition, the device can be made small and portable to strengthen the periodontal ligament.
