TYPODONT FOR ORTHODONTICS PRACTICE AND PRACTICE METHOD USING THE SAME

摘要

The present invention provides a typodont for orthodontic practice. The purpose of the present invention is to facilitate production, check and observe the movement state of teeth, and place a teeth model on the typodont in various malocclusion shapes, thereby obtaining optimal orthodontics according to the shapes of teeth. To achieve the purpose, the present invention: forms an upper and lower teeth support in an upper and lower gum shape; forms a teeth combining groove at the teeth support; forms a typodont for orthodontic practice by filling the teeth combining groove with wax before hardening, placing a teeth model made of a conductor in the teeth combining groove in a desired malocclusion shape, and cooling and hardening the teeth model; fixes the typodont to a combination groove of an upper and lower support plate formed on a typodont support body; attaches a bracket to the teeth model; connects an elastic wire to the combination groove of the bracket; inputs the typodont support body to a high-frequency induction heater; and loosens binding power of the wax by slowly heating the teeth model made of the conductor by high-frequency, thereby enabling a user to check the movement of the teeth model by the binding power of the elastic wire with the naked eye.
