A device for the correction of myofunctional disorders of the temporomandibular joint with dentofacial anomalies

摘要

The invention relates to dentistry, namely to orthodontics. On the mandibular base with occlusal plates, interconnected by the vestibular arch located on the side of the lower lip, positioning rollers are made at the level of the first premolar, and on the surface of the positioning rollers are made recesses in the form of deep imprints of the teeth of the upper jaw in the constructive bite, and the bell-shaped clasps are located in areas of molars and premolars of the lower jaw. If necessary, a correction along the width of the dentition sets a zigzag lingual arch. The simplicity of the design allows you to use the device to coordinate the masticatory muscles and rebuild the trajectory of the lower jaw, thereby timely treatment of dysfunction of the temporomandibular joint in a short time with a stable result. The invention allows for orthodontic treatment of TMJ dysfunction and correction of the Spee curve in any orthodontic unit, it is available for manufacture, does not require additional material costs, and prevents complications of orthodontic treatment.
