Description

Adhesive orthodontic wire for orthodontics {BONDABLE POWER ARM FOR ORTHODONTICS}

The present invention relates to orthodontics, and more particularly, to orthodontic adhesive orthodontic teeth for translational movements that narrow the distance between the gaps between teeth and tooth axis control for straightening down teeth. It is about.

In orthodontics to straighten irregular teeth, tooth movement is classified into tipping movement and tooth movement, which is relatively more difficult. The reason is that in order to induce the tooth movement, a horizontal force must be applied to pass the center of resistance (P, P ') of the tooth to be corrected. Because. And the center of resistance (P) (P ') of the tooth is located in the root of the tooth is covered with gums, so it is necessary to consider this. In the case of narrowing the distance between the gap between teeth is a tooth movement (see Fig. 1 or 4).

Referring to Figure 1, as a conventional horizontal movement to close the gap between the teeth, the wire is welded to the integral bracket is shown.

This is to be supplied integrally welded to the normal orthodontic bracket so that the relatively thick wire has a length of about 2-3mm. The other end of the wire (2) (2 ') welded to the bracket (1) (1') is bent to form hooks (3) (3 ') and guided to the arch wire (5) for calibration. After attaching the brackets (1) (1 ') to the teeth (6) (6') to be orthodontic, the elastic members (4) are hooked between the hooks (3) and (3 ') to induce tooth movement by the elasticity. will be. That is, the bracket (1) (1 ') is guided to the orthodontic arc (5) by the elasticity of the elastic member 4 is to move with the teeth to be corrected (6) (6').

However, the wire (2) (2 ') welded to the bracket (1) (1') is attached to the teeth to be corrected (6) (6 ') and the traction force required for tooth movement when the elastic member (4) is hooked It is added to generate only, and because the length is short, the position of the hook (3) (3 ') does not reach the resistance center (P) (P') mentioned above, so it is not possible to induce tooth movement by itself. will be. That is, tooth movement could not be obtained unless a separate moment was applied to the orthodontic arch 5.

In addition, it is difficult to attach in an optimal state because it must be attached to be guided to the orthodontic arc 5, and this wire (2) (2 ') is not attached in parallel with the teeth to be corrected (6) (6'). If you do not have a lot of discomfort sticking gums.

Next, an example of the tooth control is shown in FIG. Figure 2 is an excerpt of the main portion for explaining the device and the installation state performed to straighten the teeth fall into the conventional tooth defect space.

As shown in the figure, a bracket 11 is attached to the outside of the surrounding healthy teeth 10, and the support wire 12 is hypothesized on this, and the orthodontic tooth 13 of the elastic wire 15 Another bracket 14 having a holder for holding one end is attached, and the hook 16 formed at the other end of the elastic wire 15 is hooked to the support wire 12 to resilient the elastic wire 15. To straighten the tooth 13 to be corrected. This is relatively simple to manufacture and has been used mainly in clinical practice.

However, when the orthodontic device is installed in the oral cavity, the brackets 11 and 14 are attached to the orthodontic teeth 13 and the surrounding healthy teeth 10 to hypothesize the supporting wires 12 and the elastic wires 15. It still requires cumbersome work, and there is a problem that the foreign body feels great even to the patient wearing the orthodontic device.

As described above, the wire for orthodontics used in the conventional dental orthodontic device has been limited in its use, such as being produced and used immediately according to the purpose at that time, or being welded integrally to the bracket.

Therefore, the present invention provides a wide range of applications so that it can be applied to a variety of cases according to the oral condition of the patient, easy to install in the oral cavity, to provide mass-adhesive adhesive straightening lines that can be conveniently selected and used. For that purpose.

In order to solve the above problems, the tooth orthodontic wire holding the elasticity for applying the force required for orthodontic, and the adhesive button for bonding the teeth to be orthodontic bonded to one end of the orthodontic wire with an adhesive A self-adhesive calibration straight line was constructed.

At this time, the adhesive correction line for orthodontics is to include having a curved portion.

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings a preferred embodiment according to the present invention in detail as follows.

3A and 3B show embodiments according to the bonding of the orthodontic wire and the button.

Adhesive button 30 is a conventionally used during orthodontic treatment of the teeth, and the base portion 31 and the hook portion 32 for hanging the elastic member and the like attached to the teeth. The orthodontic wire 40 has a connecting ring 41 formed by bending one or both ends thereof. The hook portion 32 of the button 30 for bonding and the connection ring 41 of the orthodontic wire 40 is to be firmly connected by applying a UV-curable adhesive 50 and the UV light to cure.

Microetching is formed on the hook portion 32 of the bonding button 30 and the connection ring 41 of the orthodontic wire 40 to form a rough surface, which is more securely coupled between the two.

The adhesive button 30 and the orthodontic wire 40 are attached to each other by an adhesive agent 50 to exclude a problem in which physical properties of the wire may be changed by welding.

Meanwhile, FIG. 3B shows that the adhesive buttons 30 and 30 ′ are provided at both ends of the orthodontic wire 40 and have a curved portion 60 having a central portion bent. When the adhesive straightening line is manufactured and supplied to have various widths, a bending operation for bending the straightening line is performed to exert the necessary force for correcting between the target tooth and the healthy tooth according to various cases according to the oral condition of the patient. Much easier and more precise.

Hereinafter, with reference to Figures 4 to 5b, an embodiment of the present invention when the preferred embodiments of the present invention is actually used for orthodontics will be described.

Figure 4 shows the embodiment applied to narrow the gap between the teeth of the present invention.

In this case, a relatively thick calibration line provided by bonding the adhesive buttons 30 and 30 'to only one end of the orthodontic wire 40 and 40' is used, and the other end is cut out to have an appropriate length and the portion thereof is cut. Hooks (3) (3 ') are formed on the straightening lines. Then, the buttons 30 and 30 'for bonding are placed so that the hooks 3 and 3' of the calibration line come to the resistance center P of the teeth to be corrected 6 and 6 '. After bonding to the teeth (6) (6 ') is to hang the elastic member (4). At this time, the brackets 7 and 7 'adhered to the orthodontic teeth serve only to guide the movement of the orthodontic teeth 6 and 6' along the orthodontic arch 5, and the orthodontic arch is conventionally used. You do not need to give a separate moment. In other words, unlike a bracket in which a conventional wire is integrally welded, tooth movement can be induced by itself.

In particular, the case of such a patient can adjust the position of the hook 3 to some extent according to the position where the button 30 for adhesion to the orthodontic target is attached within the range of the teeth exposed out of the gum, the predetermined length ( 2-3mm) by making the hook is formed at the end of the calibration line, it is convenient to cut or banding work to be done in the clinic.

5A and 5B are a plan view and a side view of an embodiment in which the present invention is applied to straighten a tooth that has fallen into a tooth defect space.

In this case, correction lines provided with both ends of the orthodontic wires 40 for the buttons 30 and 30 'were used. In particular, the center part was bent to select the curved part 60. And, to bend the both ends of the wire according to the oral condition of the patient so that the corrective force by the curved portion 60 in the desired direction can be applied to the orthodontic target 13 and the healthy tooth 10 for supporting the corrective force. Adhesive buttons 30 and 30 'were bonded to each other. The healthy tooth 10 to which the bonding button 30 'is attached is selected from those adjacent to the orthodontic tooth 13, and the teeth to which the orthodontic tooth 13 belongs to prevent the tooth from being reversed. 8) It is the same as the related art to install and reinforce the bonding type calibration line 5 'inside.

However, as in the related art, a complicated apparatus and installation process, such as attaching a separate bracket to the outside of the oral cavity and installing a support wire, have been omitted, thereby minimizing foreign body feelings felt by patients.

The above embodiment is merely a description of some preferred embodiments according to the present invention, the scope of application of the present invention is not limited to this, and can be changed appropriately within the scope of the same idea. For example, since the wire portion is made sufficiently long, it can be applied to the rotated tooth to obtain superior results than conventional treatments.

As described above, according to the present invention orthodontic adhesive straightening line, by mass-producing adhesive straightening lines in which orthodontic wires of various thicknesses are bonded with adhesive buttons, the appropriate thickness of the correcting line is selected according to the oral condition of the patient. By itself or through cutting or simple bending, it can be applied to the patient's oral condition in the most desirable form. Since it is adhesive, it is easy to install a correction line in a necessary position according to various patient cases.

In addition, the configuration is simple, when replacing the other orthodontic device is the least foreign body when installed in the oral cavity, and has the advantage of high interoperability with other orthodontic devices.
