Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention relates to a dental treatment aid. In dental treatment, in order to prevent the inconvenience of treatment using saliva or the like and to prevent the treatment instrument from falling into the oral cavity, a dental treatment aid 1 as shown in the first example has been conventionally used. This auxiliary tool 1 extends from both ends of the horizontal rod 2A, which is slightly upwardly curved, to the vertical rod 2 in a perpendicular direction.
It has a metal frame main body 2 with B extending in parallel, and has a plurality of outward protrusions 3 provided at predetermined intervals on both rods 2A, 2B of the frame main body 2, and a rubber sheet is attached to the protrusions 3 during treatment. 4 with appropriate tension, punch holes 5 are punched in the stretched rubber sheet 4 at positions corresponding to the treatment area of the tooth dentition, and the punch holes 5 are placed over the teeth to be treated. Moreover, the corresponding tooth exposed from the hole 5 of the rubber sheet 4 was clamped with a clamp fitting (not shown).

However, since the frame body 2 of the above-mentioned auxiliary tool 1 is made of metal, when the punched hole 5 of the rubber sheet 4 is placed over the tooth to be treated, the rubber sheet 4 is pinched with fingers near the hole 5 to make a large It is difficult to put it on unless it is deformed, making it inconvenient to handle, and since the frame body 2 is pressed against the patient's face, there is a danger that the protrusions 3 may poke the patient's cheeks, chin, or eyes.

This device eliminates the drawbacks of the conventional devices mentioned above, and provides a dental treatment aid that is easy to handle and highly safe because it can be attached to the teeth to be treated by covering the punched holes in the rubber sheet. The purpose is to

The above object is achieved by this invention, which includes a flexible soft synthetic resin frame body formed in the shape of a thin plate ring and having an opening larger than the opening of the oral cavity. This is achieved by adopting a configuration in which an adhesive layer that can be adhered to the rubber sheet is formed on the rubber sheet, and a thin plate sheet is releasably adhered to this adhesive layer.

Examples of this invention will be described below.

In Figures 2 and 3, 11 is a dental treatment aid;
This auxiliary tool 11 has an opening 12 that is somewhat larger than the opening of the patient's oral cavity, and includes a flexible soft synthetic resin frame body 13 formed in the shape of a thin plate ring. An adhesive layer 14 is formed on the back surface of the frame body 13, and the frame body 13 is bonded to a rubber sheet to be described later through the adhesive layer 14. Reference numeral 15 denotes a ring-shaped thin plate sheet having the same shape as the frame body 13, and is releasably adhered to the adhesive layer 14 of the frame body. The shape of the frame body 13 is not limited to that shown in the drawings, and of course may be circular or rectangular.

Next, how to use the auxiliary tool 11 will be explained.

After peeling off the thin sheet 15 from the back side of the frame body 13, the adhesive layer 14 of the frame body 13 is
is adhered to a rectangular rubber sheet 16 as shown in FIG. After checking the adhesion condition,
A punch hole 18 is punched approximately in the middle of the center vertical line 17 of the rubber sheet 16. This central vertical line 17 can be formed by bending the frame body 13 together with the rubber sheet 16, or it can be easily done by using a thin sheet 15 that has already been peeled off and bent in the same way. Although the position of the punch hole 18 is suitable for treating molar teeth, it can also be used for treating other anterior teeth, premolars, etc. Furthermore, there is no problem even if the position of the punch hole 18 is slightly shifted approximately along the central vertical line 17.
Next, in order to check whether the position of the punch hole 18 is suitable for the tooth to be treated, the frame body 1
3 in a sideways state, with its opening 12 facing the opening of the patient's oral cavity as shown in FIG. Make it larger and place it over the relevant tooth. At this time, since the frame main body 13 has flexibility, it bends according to the deformation of the rubber sheet 16 and fits onto the patient's face, making the attachment work very quick and easy. No wrinkles or shrinkage. Then, if the attachment is suitable, the rubber sheet 16 is attached as is, and the clamp fitting 20 is clamped with tweezers so as to press the side surface of the corresponding tooth exposed from the punch hole 18 of the rubber sheet 16.

With the above, all preparations for treatment are completed, but since the frame main body 13 is oriented horizontally when installed, the upper part of the rubber sheet 16 will not block the patient's nose, and since it is made of resin, it feels good against the skin. It won't hurt your face. In addition, the frame body 13 is used when removing fluid accumulated in the patient's oral cavity during treatment or when taking X-rays.
The rubber sheet 16 is placed along the center vertical line 17.
At the same time, the rubber sheet 16 can be folded to open approximately half of the blocked oral cavity, and there is no need to remove the rubber sheet 16 from the tooth in question, so the working time can be greatly shortened.

This idea is as described above, and the frame body, in which the adhesive layer and the rubber sheet are bonded and integrated, is flexible and bends according to the deformation of the rubber sheet, so it can be easily It can be attached to the punched hole in the rubber sheet over the tooth to be treated, and is easy to handle and has extremely high workability. In addition, unlike conventional metal frames, the frame body does not have protrusions that can poke into the cheeks, chin, or eyes, so it is safe and has excellent effects such as ease of treatment.
