Background
According to the general survey report of the oral health of children and teenagers in China, 3 symptoms of the irregular teeth exist in every 4 children, no matter which teeth are irregular, the functions of the perioral muscles and the swallowing mode of the children are more or less problematic, and a plurality of children patients also have the habit of mouth breathing, so that the facial development is influenced. The muscle function correction is to correct the bad oral habits of children by training in the early stage, and to adjust the neuromuscular functions of the lip, tongue body, muscles around the mouth and the like to the normal coordination state so as to achieve the normal jaw development, the position relationship and the normal tooth eruption and arrangement relationship. However, the currently mainstream children functional appliance is generally of an upper and lower integrated structure, i.e. the appliance parts respectively placed on the upper and lower teeth of the patient are connected together and cannot be separated, so that the appliance has some defects in use. If the appliance needs to be taken out when speaking, particularly eating, the nerve function and coordination of muscles and the tongue can be best stimulated when people eat, chew and swallow, and at the moment, if the appliance is taken out, the excellent muscle exercise opportunity is lost. Therefore, the existing appliance is required to urge children to do special muscle function exercise and practice under the supervision of parents, which brings inconvenience to the work and life of adults and children. In addition, because the existing appliance is not provided with a retaining structure on teeth and dentition or generates retaining force by covering partial labial, buccal and lingual surfaces and adjacent gaps of the teeth, the functional appliance has poor retaining force in the oral cavity and is easy to displace, thereby causing discomfort of patients.
Disclosure of Invention
In view of the above problems, the present invention is directed to a device for correcting muscle function of children.
In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical scheme:
a child muscle function appliance is characterized by comprising an occlusion dike and a tongue side wing plate, wherein the occlusion dike is arc-shaped, the shape of the occlusion dike is consistent with that of a lower dental arch, and the height of the occlusion dike is 5-10 mm; the top of the occlusion dyke is a smooth plane and is contacted with part of the upper jaw teeth during occlusion. The outer edge of the bottom of the occlusion dyke is provided with a tooth lip and cheek retaining plate, the inner edge of the bottom of the occlusion dyke is provided with a lingual retaining plate, the tooth lip and cheek retaining plate and the lingual retaining plate cover the lower dentition lip and cheek, and the high point line of the lingual contour and part of the adjacent gap provide retention. A concave tooth socket is formed between the tooth labial and buccal retaining plates and the lingual retaining plate, a lingual wing plate is connected with the extension part of the lingual retaining plate, the lingual wing plate is in a slope and slightly concave shape and is adapted to the tongue edge shape, and the extension degree of the lingual wing plate is consistent with the requirement of manufacturing the lingual edge of the complete denture.
Furthermore, a plurality of tooth profiles are arranged on the tooth lip and cheek retention plate.
Furthermore, a plurality of tooth profiles are arranged on the lingual retention plate and correspond to the tooth profiles on the labial and buccal retention plate.
Furthermore, the occlusion dike, the tooth, lip and cheek retaining plate, the lingual wing plate and the tooth outline are of a transparent resin structure integrally formed at one time, and are attractive and wear-resistant.
The utility model has the advantages that:
1. the appliance is only arranged on the lower jaw of a patient and is different from the existing upper and lower integrated functional appliance, so that the person does not need to take out the appliance for speaking and eating for a long time, and can exercise muscles around the mouth more efficiently and correct abnormal swallowing and mouth breathing habits by wearing diet.
2. Through setting up tooth lip cheek solid fixed plate and lingual side solid fixed plate can make patient's tooth be located the alveolus that naturally forms between the two, and the retention nature is good, has solved the condition that current children function correction ware takes place the aversion easily in the oral cavity.
3. The height of the occlusion embankment is set to be 5-10mm, the internal space of the oral cavity is properly increased,
the inner space of the oral cavity becomes larger, the tongue body depressed and retracted by abnormal functions is released, the moving space of the tongue is enlarged, and the retracted or extended mandible returns to the normal position. Because the depressed tongue body is lifted, the force of the tongue muscle can widen the narrow maxillary bone and the maxillary bone, so that the nasal cavity is widened, and the space of the oral cavity is enlarged to relieve the compression of the pharyngeal portion by the retracted tongue body, the ventilation function of the infant is improved, the nose is unobstructed, and the appliance is also happily worn. And because the occlusion dike is 5-10mm high, when a child plays at ordinary times, saliva flows out if the upper lip and the lower lip are not closed intentionally, in order to not lose the saliva, the child can close the upper lip and the lower lip at times, and the mysterious phenomenon that the child does not need to take extra time to deliberately forge muscles around the lips is also achieved. Meanwhile, the height of 5-10mm can inhibit the mouth breathing habit. The occlusal dyke is in contact with most teeth of the upper dentition, and is also beneficial to the recovery of the chewing function of the infant who has lost a plurality of back teeth of the lower dentition due to caries.
