Definitions
- the invention relates to appliances used for securing the intra-oral position of saliva ejectors and other dental operative utilities during dental procedures.
- saliva ejectors are essential procedural requirements for the majority of clinical operative procedures.
- Said saliva ejectors evacuate the operative field (the patient's mouth) from the fluid mix, attributable mainly to 15 saliva secretion and handpiece coolant water-spray, which accumulates therein during dental procedures.
- saliva secretion and handpiece coolant water-spray which accumulates therein during dental procedures.
- a dental assistant holds the saliva ejector in position or, in situations where an assistant is not available, the practitioner may ask the patient to hold the saliva ejector in place.
- the practitioner may use a saliva ejector provisioned with mechanical means by which the intra-oral position thereof can be self-reliantly maintained throughout the dental procedure; said means for maintaining the position thereof may conform
- the present invention consists in providing a convenient method for securing saliva ejectors intra-orally by means of trans-buccal magnetic clamping.
- a typical embodiment of the present invention may easily, with very little or no modification, be employed for intra-oral fixation of other dental utilities beside saliva ejectors; other dental utilities may include: intra-oral light sources as those provided by operative lighting optic fibers, reflectors of all sorts, and x-ray films or sensors. The remainder of this description, however, will focus on fixation of saliva ejectors.
- the present invention in all its embodiments, is comprised of two parts.
- the first part is a ferromagnetic metal part of a geometric shape which complements certain intra-oral anatomical features; henceforth, this part shall be referred to as the "intra-oral piece”.
- the second part comprises a permanent magnet and the shape thereof is conformant with certain external facial anatomical features related to the mouth; henceforth, this part shall be referred to as the "extra- oral-piece”.
- the intra-oral piece comprises attachment means by which a saliva ejector (suction tube) may be mounted and attached thereto.
- the method for fixing said saliva ejector tube intra-orally is as follows: Said intra-oral-piece is inserted intra-orally along with the suction tube mounted thereon at the location wherein the practitioner requires the suction tube be fixed. The practitioner, simultaneously, places the extra-oral-piece on the patient's cheek at a position that faces extra-orally said intra-oral-piece such that the magnetic attraction between said two pieces generates a clamping action which fixes both pieces in place; thusly anchoring said saliva ejector tube.
- the invention may be customized in certain embodiments to be compatible with standard commercially available saliva ejector tubes. Other embodiments may be customized for compatibility with custom saliva ejector tubes and, in other embodiments, the saliva ejector tube may be combined with said intra-oral-piece such as to form one individual part.
- said intra-oral-piece comes into contact with potentially infectious biological matter, it is fabricated such that it be disposable or autoclavable.
- Fig. 1 illustrates a standard commercial disposable saliva ejector bendable tube.
- Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the coil variant of the intra-oral-piece of the tubular embodiment of the invention.
- Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the partial cylinder variant of the intra-oral-piece of the tubular embodiment of the invention.
- Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the intra-oral-piece of Fig. 2 with the saliva ejector tube of Fig. 1 inserted therein.
- Fig. 5 is a perspective view of the intra-oral-piece of Fig. 3 with the saliva ejector tube of Fig. 1 mounted thereupon.
- Fig. 6 is a perspective view of the extra-oral-piece of the tubular embodiment of the invention.
- Fig. 7 is an illustration of the tubular embodiment of the invention set up in the mouth.
- Fig. 8 is a perspective view of the intra-oral-piece of the cheek-plate embodiment of the invention.
- Fig. 9 is a perspective view of the intra-oral-piece of Fig. 8 with the saliva ejector tube of Fig. 1 mounted thereupon.
- Fig. 10 is a perspective view of the extra-oral-piece of the cheek-plate embodiment of the invention.
- Fig. 11 is an illustration of the cheek-plate embodiment of the invention set up in the mouth.
- any given embodiment of the present invention is comprised of two pieces, an intra-oral-piece and an extra-oral-piece.
- Two embodiments of the present invention shall be described in detail hereinafter. Both are adapted for use with a standard commercial bendable disposable saliva ejector tube 1.
- the first of said two embodiments shall henceforth be referred thereto as the "tubular” embodiment; it is specifically devised for fixation of said standard saliva ejector tubes 1 at the bottom of the lower buccal vestibule (the floor of the mouth in the area between the teeth and the cheek).
- the second of said two embodiments shall henceforth be referred thereto as the "cheek-plate” embodiment; it is specifically devised for fixation of said standard saliva ejector tubes 1 sublingually.
- the intra-oral-piece is designed to sit comfortably with anatomical conformity within the buccal vestibule
- said intra-oral-piece Figs.2-3 has two variants.
- the first is a spring coil 2ta made of ferromagnetic elastic wire such that it easily bends to follow the anatomy of the buccal vestibule when seated therein.
- the second is a hollow partial cylinder 2tb made of ferromagnetic material.
- Either variant Figs.2-3 is designed such that said saliva ejector tube 1 can be inserted and attached thereupon by press-fit or friction-grip as illustrated in Figs. 4-5.
- the extra-oral-piece Fig. 6 of this embodiment is a permanently magnetized bracket 3t of triangular cross-section with a side that is curved so as to fit comfortably to the lower area of the cheek at the bottom border of the mandible.
- the permanent magnetization of the latter is preferably attained by means of a neodymium magnet embedded therein.
- the intra-oral-piece, 2ta or 2tb, and the saliva ejector tube 1 mounted thereupon is seated at the location chosen by the practitioner in the buccal vestibule and, thence, the extra-oral-piece 3t is applied to contact the lower border of the cheek; at some point during the application thereof, the magnetic attraction between the two pieces will take over and a clamping action across the cheek will be generated such as to fix both pieces in their respective positions.
- the intra-oral-piece 2b is a curved ferromagnetic plate designed to rest comfortably with anatomical conformity on the mucosal (inner) surface of the cheek wherein an extension of said plate 2b features a semicircular notch 2n for the purpose of attachment of said saliva ejector tubes 1.
- the extra-oral-piece Fig. 10 of this embodiment is a permanently magnetized plate 3b wherein said magnetization is preferably attained by means of a neodymium magnet embedded therein.
- the intra-oral-piece 2b and the saliva ejector tube 1 mounted thereupon is applied to the mucosal (inner) surface of the cheek and, thence, the extra-oral-piece 3b is applied to contact the cheek externally; at some point during the application thereof, the magnetic attraction between the two pieces will take over and a clamping action across the cheek will be generated such as to fix both pieces in their respective positions.
- the intra-oral-piece of any given embodiment is made such as to be autoclavable or disposable and said intra-oral-piece may be customized for fixation of dental utilities other than saliva suction tubes such as intra-oral light sources and reflection elements.

Abstract
L'invention concerne un dispositif de clamp magnétique transbuccal destiné à la fixation intra-orale d'équipements chirurgicaux dentaires tels que des tubes d'éjecteur de salive (1) et des sources lumineuses intra-orales, ledit dispositif étant constitué de deux pièces magnétiques, l'une desdites deux pièces (2b) étant positionnée intra-oralement et l'autre (3b) étant positionnée à l'opposé par rapport à celle-ci, extra-oralement sur la surface externe de la joue de telle sorte que l'attraction magnétique mutuelle entre lesdites deux pièces entraîne une action de clampage transbuccale qui fixe chacune desdites deux pièces dans la position respective correspondante ; et la pièce qui est positionnée intra-oralement comprenant des moyens de fixation par lesquels un équipement dentaire, tels qu'un tube d'aspiration d'éjecteur de salive, peut être ancré sur celle-ci.
