As shown in FIGS. 1-8, it is an Example of the nasal respiratory assistance tool A which prevents the splash and wind in the dental treatment of this invention, This description does not restrict | limit the claim of this invention, and is concrete. The contents are used to explain the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 1, the nasal respiratory aid A that prevents splashes and winds in the dental treatment includes a sheet-like shield 10 and a tape-like contact with the nasal septum or nasal apex so as not to block the nostrils. Mounted on the face as shown in FIG. 2, the protrusion 20 floating in the shape of Mt. Fuji is integrated and provided with an ear hook 13 on the side 11 close to the ear. To do.

Persons with panic disorder who feel mental restraint in dental treatment may be exposed to strong anxiety accompanied by sudden palpitations, chest pain, breathlessness, etc., receiving splashes and winds generated during treatment on the nose . Therefore, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, with the above design, the nasal respiratory aid A is attached to the face, the nasal septum or nasal apex and the protrusion are brought into contact with each other to prevent splashing and wind in dental treatment, and A gap is surely formed between both nostrils and the sheet-like shield, enabling the user's natural nasal breathing.

The sheet-like shield 10 has a certain degree of rigidity and flexibility to adapt to the face. As a result, even if the body is pressed against the face and the main body is pressed against the face, the projection 20 hits only the nasal septum or nasal apex and does not block both nostrils, so that natural nasal breathing is possible, for example, no elasticity at all.

The protrusions 20 are folded into six, and when mounted on the face as shown in FIG. 3, the protrusions 20 are more elastic even when pressed against the nasal septum or nasal apex. Is softer. In addition, since the six-fold projection 20 is in the form of a tape that extends sideways, it does not move from side to side and is stable when worn, and does not hinder the user's own nasal breathing. As shown in FIG. 1, both end portions in the lateral direction of the protrusion 20 are fixed to the shield 10 with the adhesive surface 24, and when the main body A is pressed against the nasal septum or nasal apex at the time of wearing, the protrusion 20 is pressed against the nose. The force is distributed on five sides, the feeling of pressure on the nasal septum or nasal tip is reduced, and the flexibility is increased. Also, it is tape-like, light and easy to follow the nose and soft to touch, and easy to pierce ear hooks, and can be cleaned and kept hygienic and inexpensive.

The lateral width 21 of the protrusion 20 in FIG. 2 is the length between the nostrils, and the lateral width 21 may be wider than the width of the nasal septum or nose tip. However, the width 21 may be a length that does not block both nostrils, a shape that does not block both nostrils, and a form in which a gap is formed between both nostrils.

The ear hook 13 in FIG. 1 is preferably a rubber-like elastic string, for example.

The sheet-shaped shield 10 in FIG. 1 has a certain degree of rigidity and flexibility to adapt to the face. Therefore, the horizontal length 15 of the shield 10 is the length to the vicinity of the front of the auricle. Since it follows the cheekbone around the nasal septum or nasal apex, it may be stable and less worn. For example, it may be about 120 to 160 mm for a standard adult female. Further, since the side 11 close to the ear of FIG. 1 is farther than the side 31 close to the ear of FIG. 5, the gap between the sheet-like shield 10 and both nostrils can be obtained more stably, and the user's spirit Burden is reduced.

As shown in FIG. 5, the nasal respiratory aid B that prevents splashes and winds in dental treatment includes a sheet-like shield 30 and a tape-like protrusion that contacts the nasal septum or nasal apex so as not to block the nostril. 40 is integrated, and an ear hook 33 (a rubber-like structure in the case of a low-cost version) is provided on the side 31 close to the ear, and is attached to the face.

The sheet-like shield 30 has a certain degree of rigidity and flexibility to adapt to the face. As a result, even when the body is pressed against the face and the main body is pressed against the face, the projection 40 hits only the nasal septum or nasal apex and does not block both nostrils, so that natural nasal breathing is possible, for example, no elasticity at all.

The protrusion 40 in FIG. 5 is, for example, a square plastic small plastic lump, and this plastic may be a soft urethane foam or rubber having elasticity, or one having no elasticity at all. Since the protrusion 40 is a lump of plastic, for example, the shape is easily maintained when mounted, and there is a sense of stability and is strong.

The lateral width 41 of the protrusion 40 in FIG. 6 is the length of both nostrils, and the lateral width 41 may be wider than the width of the nasal septum or nose tip. However, the width 41 may be a length that does not block both nostrils, a shape that does not block both nostrils, and a form in which a gap is formed between both nostrils.

The ear hook 33 shown in FIG. 5 is, for example, in a wire shape, and may be bent so that the sheet-shaped shield B follows the face of each user. The wire-like ear hook 33 may be a non-bending or elastic string.

The bonding surfaces 24 and 42 of the main body and the protrusions may be bonded with, for example, a strong double-sided tape or may be an adhesive.

As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the lateral length 35 of the sheet-like shield 30 is a low-cost version that is more compact than the nasal breathing assisting device A. If it is for an adult woman, it has the original function even if it is about 40 to 80 mm, for example.

As shown in FIGS. 1, 3, and 5, the lower end covers 12 and 32 are designed so that when the main bodies A and B are mounted, even if they are mounted throughout the dental treatment, no marks are left on the face. For example, a cushion material cloth is bonded so that the lower ends of the main bodies A and B, for example, the sheet-like shields A and B do not directly contact the face.

As for the vertical width 14 of the sheet-like shield A of FIG. 1 and the vertical width 34 of the sheet-like shield B of FIG. It is preferable to make the vertical widths 14 and 34 as narrow as possible to eliminate the feeling of wearing on the face. Therefore, the vertical widths 14 and 34 are, for example, about the length of the nose tip from the upper side of the upper lip, and may be about 10 to 30 mm for a standard adult female.

For example, as a variation, the semicircular protrusion 50 in FIG. 7 has a small adhesive surface and is soft and light in contact, and the quadruple-shaped protrusion 60 in FIG. 8 is light and soft in contact. Both 60s are easy to keep in shape and are not easily displaced from side to side, providing a sense of stability when worn.

As shown in FIGS. 1, 7, and 8, the protrusions 20, 50, and 60 are all tape-like, light and easy to follow the nose and soft to touch, and can be washed and kept hygienic. In particular, the protrusions 50 and 60 are lighter and lower in cost.
