Description

Tongue guard support in oral cavity

technical field

The utility model relates to a disposable tongue-protecting consumable in the oral cavity, in particular to a tongue-protecting bracket used in the oral cavity tooth treatment process to support the oral cavity.

Background technique

During oral treatment, it is necessary to open and support the patient's mouth, while ensuring that the inside of the patient's mouth is clean and the treatment site is dry. In order to solve these problems, doctors often use auxiliary tools such as opening forceps, gags, occlusal pads, and rubber dams during the treatment process.

Under normal circumstances, the doctor will use the mouth mirror to pull the corner of the mouth of the patient when performing an oral examination for the patient. However, because the patient feels uncomfortable and resists unconsciously, the operating area and the scope of the surgical field of view become smaller. At the same time, the original function of the mouth mirror cannot be realized, and because the doctor's hand is used to pull the corner of the mouth, often during the treatment process Will be in a hurry.

Existing gags are generally made of medical stainless steel or low-density polyethylene. In order to avoid cross-infection when using metal gags, disinfection is required after each use, and gauze needs to be wrapped before use. The steps are cumbersome and it is easy to delay the timing of rescue. Although the disposable low-density polyethylene gag has certain elasticity, its strength is still very large, and patients will feel uncomfortable when using it. Moreover, the existing gags are not easy to adjust according to the needs. Generally, the back teeth are supported on one side, which is inconvenient to locate and easy to slip off. It cannot protect the tongue and the floor of the mouth well, so there is a greater risk in the treatment, and it is easy to damage the tongue. Wait close to the surgical site.

In addition, the patient will produce a lot of saliva during the operation, and the existing gag does not have the function of sucking saliva. Because too much saliva can affect the operation, the existing mouth gag is generally used in conjunction with the saliva suction tube. The common saliva suction tube has strong suction, but it is easy to fall off, and it is easy to damage the oral mucosa and tongue.

During the treatment process, the rubber dam can isolate the treatment site, keep the treatment site dry, and maintain a sterile environment inside the oral cavity. However, many devices are required to install the rubber dam, the installation process is complicated, and the cooperation of many people is required, which requires high requirements for medical personnel.

Contents of the invention

In order to make up for some deficiencies in the existing protective tools for mouth suction in the oral cavity treatment process, the utility model provides an easy-to-use, adaptable and more comfortable disposable oral cavity guard for the mouth tongue guard in oral dental treatment. Tongue brace.

The utility model includes a support frame, a saliva suction hole and a lighting device. The outer edges of the upper frame and the lower frame of the support frame are inwardly recessed to provide an operating space for dental treatment; the support frame is provided with a saliva suction hole, and the saliva suction hole is used for A saliva suction device is placed, and a lighting device is provided on the bracket near the upper and lower gums. The lighting device is an LED light source or a light-guiding fiber. When LED is used for lighting, an external battery or a light-adjusting unit is connected through a cable;

The brace is provided with openings and breathing holes in sequence from the throat hole to the mouth opening, the diameter of the breathing hole is smaller than the diameter of the tongue, and a semi-closed spherical cavity is formed between the upper frame and the lower frame of the bracket. The spherical cavity of the tongue accommodates the tongue and isolates it from the working area of the teeth. A plurality of wetting holes are provided on the bracket, and the wetting holes are convenient for the circulation of air and the flow of saliva, so as to ensure the moisture in the oral cavity.

The material of the bracket is elastic medical silicone. It is a single-use device. It is suitable for protecting the tongue during dental treatment, as well as providing saliva suction and lighting.

The use process of the present utility model is:

(1) The utility model is compressed and stuffed into the oral cavity of the patient, allowing it to expand in the oral cavity by itself, so as to ensure that the patient's tongue is isolated from the teeth and gums without losing free space for movement.

(2) Place the saliva suction device in the saliva suction hole of the frame to ensure that the oral mucosa is not sucked during the saliva suction process, and the saliva is cleaned in time.

(3) Turn on the lighting device to irradiate the surface and lingual side for dental operation.

The working principle of the utility model is as follows:

In order to ensure the comfort of the patient as much as possible and protect the tongue from injury, the utility model has an opening in the throat, which allows the tongue to go deep into the bracket without restricting the tongue's movement; a breathing hole is arranged in the opening of the mouth, and the aperture is slightly larger. Smaller than the diameter of the tongue, it restricts the tongue from approaching the teeth and protects the tongue from being damaged by dental appliances.

In order to clean up the saliva in time and protect the mucous membrane in the oral cavity, the bracket is provided with a saliva suction hole, and the saliva suction tube is extended, and a hole is provided on the inner surface of the bracket close to the mandible, which is convenient for sucking saliva and avoiding the suction of the oral mucosa caused by saliva suction. Pull damage. Wetting holes are arranged on the surface of the lower shelf of the support frame, which facilitates the circulation of air and the flow of saliva, and ensures the moisture in the oral cavity.

In order to ensure the convenience of the doctor's treatment, the bracket is retracted near the upper and lower gums, and is in a concave state to provide an operating space for dental treatment; a lighting device is installed near the teeth to irradiate the opposite side and the lingual side, which is convenient for the doctor to control the oral cavity. Observe; the saliva suction hole is set with two left and right saliva suction positions, which can be integrally formed with a saliva suction head or a conventional flexible saliva suction head, which is convenient for doctors to perform dental treatment.

The beneficial effects of the utility model:

The utility model adopts elastic materials, which restrains the patient's oral cavity more naturally and has less side effects on the temporomandibular joint; under the premise of ensuring the normal activity of the tongue, the tongue is isolated and protected from damage; the structure is simple and easy to use, compared with common The device for isolating teeth and gums is more acceptable to patients and has better comfort; it can realize continuous and safe suction of saliva, and can provide lighting on the opposite side and lingual side, providing convenience for dental treatment operations.
