Description

The utility model relates to medical equipment, in particular to therapeutic dentistry, and can be used for antiseptic treatment and sterilization of oral tissues in the treatment of periodontal and periodontal diseases, such as periodontitis and periodontitis, as well as for antiseptic treatment of oral tissues.

State of the art

As is known, treatment of periodontal diseases, as well as endodontic treatment, is aimed at eliminating infection in the affected tissues or in the root canal system of the tooth.

A known open-type ultraviolet quartz irradiator [for example, OUFK-01 "SUN" according to TU 9444-006-25616222-2009 manufactured by OOO "Sun", Russia], including a special mercury-quartz lamp DKB (u) -7. Such devices are effectively used for the treatment and prevention of a number of diseases, including the oral cavity. Their principle of operation is based on the bactericidal action of UV rays, especially with a wavelength of 253 nm, due to their direct effect on the protein components of microorganisms, denaturation and death [Muravyannikova Zh.G. The basics of dental physiotherapy. A series of "Medicine for you." Rostov n / a: “Phoenix”, 2002. - 320 p.].

The disadvantages of such devices include the following:

- the impossibility of local treatment of affected tissues, including the root canals of the tooth, due to the large size;

- short exposure time, due to the fact that a mercury lamp is used as a radiation source, which is very hot during operation, which can create adverse operating conditions until it breaks down;

- the need for preliminary heating of the lamp for the device to enter the operating mode, which can take from 5 to 7 minutes;

- the need to connect the device in place of a stationary AC network, which creates inconvenience in the operation and movement of the device.

Known methods of antiseptic treatment of the oral cavity [patent RU 2379069, publ. 01/20/2010; Patent DE 102011017406, publ. 04/18/20111, including the introduction into the oral cavity of a composition that forms active particles under the influence of light, and then the use of an electric toothbrush with a head containing a light-emitting element. The output signal from the light emitting element is sent to a portion of the soft tissues in the oral cavity for a period of time sufficient to form active particles from the composition.

The disadvantage of such methods and devices is the need to use special solutions that require special preparation, and in addition, their components can cause allergic reactions. In addition, such methods of antiseptic treatment of the oral cavity do not allow antiseptic treatment locally in spatially difficult places, such as a periodontal pocket or root canals of the tooth.

The closest analogue is an endodontic tool for sterilizing tooth canals [patent RU 131609 U1, publ. 08/27/2013], containing a control unit with a built-in timer with a maximum exposure time limit of not more than 45 s and a holder, as well as a UV emitter with a wavelength including the range 254-257 nm, and a reflector that is connected through an optical fiber cable with fiber optic disposable tip. The radiation hits the reflector, refracted through the fiber optic cable, and the fiber optic disposable tip is sent to its destination.

The disadvantage of the closest analogue is:

- short exposure time, which may not be enough for a complete effective antiseptic treatment during the treatment of periodontal diseases;

- a small range of the radiation source, which allows for antiseptic treatment, but not a complex effect on the affected tissue, which could help accelerate the regeneration and healing;

- cumbersome design, due to the use of a separate control unit, which is also connected to a stationary AC network, which not only complicates the work of a specialist, but also makes it impossible to move the device and makes it difficult to capture narrow spaces.

Utility Model Disclosure

The task to which the proposed utility model is directed is to provide the possibility of effective antiseptic treatment and sterilization of hard-to-reach areas of the oral cavity in the treatment of periodontal and periodontal diseases, including, but not limited to, complete sterilization of the root canals of the tooth.

This problem is solved in that in a device for antibacterial treatment of areas of the oral cavity in the treatment of periodontal and periodontal diseases, including an ultraviolet emitter, a control chip, a focusing system, an optical waveguide, an autonomous power source; the ultraviolet emitter is made in the form of an ultraviolet LED operating at a wavelength of 200 to 380 nm, and a small diameter fiber (125 to 400 μm) is used as an optical waveguide, transparent in the wavelength range of 200 to 400 nm, and the control chip is connected with a display equipped with a battery indicator, and with the ability to set the exposure time from 60 s to 360 s.

The technical result of the proposed utility model is achieved by using an ultraviolet LED as an ultraviolet emitter, operating in the wavelength range from 200 to 380 nm. Radiation in the range 200-290 nm directly affects microorganisms, causing denaturation of nucleic acids and protein components. In addition, radiation in the range from 290 to 380 nm irritates the peripheral nerve receptors, causes a powerful afferent impulse to the central nervous system from the exposure zone, as a result of which reflex reactions occur that enhance the metabolism and create conditions under which harmful microbes lose the ability to reproduce and die, and also has anti-inflammatory, analgesic and regenerative effects on tissues [Muravyannikova Zh.G. The basics of dental physiotherapy. Ser. "Medicine is for you." Rostov n / a: “Phoenix”, 2002. - 320 p.]. In addition, through the use of a small diameter optical fiber (from 125 to 400 μm), transparent in the wavelength range from 200 to 400 nm, it is possible to transmit ultraviolet radiation of a given range directly to spatially obstructed portions of the oral cavity, such as a periodontal pocket, root canal, which greatly increases the effectiveness of antiseptic treatment. In addition, through the use of a control chip connected to the display, it is possible to set the exposure time from 60 to 360 s, which also contributes to an increase in the efficiency of antiseptic processing due to an increase in the duration of irradiation.

Due to the fact that the device containing the UV emitter and the optical waveguide is equipped with a control microcircuit, the dimensions of the device are significantly reduced, which makes it more compact as well as an autonomous power source, which makes it possible to use it independently of the stationary power network, increasing its mobility and ease of use.

The technical result of the utility model "A device for antibacterial treatment of oral areas in the treatment of periodontal and periodontal diseases" is aimed at increasing the efficiency of antiseptic treatment and sterilization of hard-to-reach areas of the oral cavity, including the root canals of the tooth.

The implementation of the invention

A device for antibacterial treatment of areas of the oral cavity in the treatment of periodontal and periodontal diseases is illustrated in FIG. 1, where 1 is a case, 2 is an autonomous power source, 3 is a control microcircuit, 4 is a control unit with a display, 5 is an ultraviolet emitter, 6 is a focusing system, 7 is an optical waveguide.

A device for antibacterial treatment of areas of the oral cavity in the treatment of periodontal and periodontal diseases works as follows.

To sterilize hard-to-reach areas of the oral cavity in the treatment of periodontal and periodontal diseases, the device is turned on with the “ON / START” button on the control unit panel with a display (4) located on the housing (1), while the power from an autonomous power source (2) is fed to the display and activates it. On the panel of the control unit with the display using the control buttons set the necessary exposure time, depending on the severity of the disease.

A sterile optical waveguide made in the form of a small diameter optical fiber (from 125 to 400 μm), transparent in the wavelength range from 200 to 400 nm (7), is introduced into two parts of the oral cavity (to the mouth of the root canal, in the upper third, into two third, or in the apecal third, or in the periodontal pocket - depending on the clinical case).

The ON / START button of the control unit with the display (4) transmits a signal with the set exposure time to the control chip (3), which activates an ultraviolet emitter made in the form of an ultraviolet LED operating at a wavelength of 200 to 380 nm (5). Using the focusing system (6), the ultraviolet radiation generated by the UV emitter is focused on the end of the fiber (7), through which the ultraviolet radiation generated by the UV emitter is transmitted directly to the treatment site and interacts with the irradiated zone within the time period specified on the control unit with display (4).

The main functional purpose of the claimed device is disinfection by irradiation with ultraviolet light of a certain wavelength and in a certain regime of the oral cavity, including hard-to-reach areas. Such irradiation can be used in the sterilization of dental canals in the treatment of pulpitis, antibacterial treatment in the treatment of periodontal diseases, as well as in the treatment of any kind of inflammatory processes caused by the development of infection, such as stomatitis, gingivitis, periodontitis, periodontitis, etc. The device will allow its use for a wide range of tasks: both for new methods of treatment of complex inflammatory processes, and the classical antiseptic treatment of oral tissues.
