101 ORTHODONTIC TOOTH RETENTION SYSTEM US11689674 2007-03-22 US20070190476A1 2007-08-16 Eugene Dellinger
A method and apparatus for delivering an orthodontic retainer system wherein pairs of magnets are applied to adjacent teeth in a patient's mouth. The retainer system may include a carrier portion having a recess which contains an adhesive material. The magnets may be embedded in the adhesive material. Once positioned on adjacent teeth, the adhesive material is cured and the carrier is removed to reveal an envelope or shaped profile of the adhesive material. The shaped profile of the adhesive material obviates the need to post-form adhesive material around the magnets after attaching the magnets to the adjacent teeth. Furthermore, the shaped profile may include a smooth surface. The adhesive material may also be aesthetically colored to match the coloring of the adjacent teeth. The carrier may be formed of a water soluble material or may be a flexible material.
102 Orthodontic bracket US10784313 2004-02-20 US06939133B2 2005-09-06 John C. Voudouris
In one embodiment, a pre-engaging orthodontic bracket includes a body having a lingual surface for attachment to a tooth, a pair of laterally spaced gingival tie wings and a pair of laterally spaced occlusal tie wings. The gingival and occlusal tie wings project from a labial surface of the body. An archwire slot extends mesiodistally across the body and between the gingival and occlusal tie wings at opposed mesial and distal sides of the body to accommodate an archwire. A pivot pin extends between a pair of the tie wings at opposed mesial and distal sides of the body. A shutter is moveable relative to the body between an open position in which placement and removal of an archwire into the archwire slot is facilitated and a closed position in which placement and removal of an archwire into the archwire slot is inhibited.

105 Friction-reducing orthodontic appliance US296811 1999-04-23 US6062855A 2000-05-16 Jeffrey S. Karlin
An orthodontic appliance in which friction is reduced between an archwire and its archwire holding element by means of repulsive forces. The repulsive forces are due to magnetic or electrical fields. The archwire holding element may be a tube, or a pair of tie wings and a slot. The archwire holding element generates a field having a sign. The archwire generates a field proximate to the archwire holding element having an identical sign. A repulsive force is therefore produced. The repulsive force minimizes contact between the archwire holding element and the archwire. This reduces frictional binding, which reduces the treatment time and/or the force necessary for successful orthodontic treatment.

107 Magnetic orthodontic appliance US858340 1992-03-26 US5205736A 1993-04-27 Abraham M. Blechman
An orthodontic appliance for intraorally distalizing teeth without patient compliance, comprising a pair of small complementary permanent magnetic elements slidably mounted on a single common sectional wire in an arrangement to repel one another, and means for maximally reengaging the magnetic elements along the sectional wire. This arrangement avoids undesirable eccentric magnetic movement and maximizes control of the repelling horizontal magnetic forces.
108 Functional orthopedic magnetic appliances (fomas) US79133 1987-07-29 US4871310A 1989-10-03 Alexander D. Vardimon
A functional orthopedic magetic appliance (FOMA) for correcting sagittal disproportions of the jaws in the form of skeletal malocclusions occurring when one jaw jets further outward anteriorly than the other jaw; and may also be used when the sagittal imbalance is associated with vertical jaw relationship problems to correct an accompanied open bite or deep bite. The FOMA includes at least one pair of anterior magnetic units in attractive orientation, with an upper magnetic unit secured to the upper jaw and a lower magnetic unit secured to the lower jaw. The anterior magnetic unit can be placed labial or lingual to the dental arch. The magnetic unit associated with the forward extending jaw is positioned anterior or forward of the other magnetic unit when the mouth is open and almost no attractive force is operating. When the mouth moves toward a closed condition, the magnetic units come into contact (no air gap) with each other, thereby pulling the mandibular jaw toward the maxillary jaw in the direction for reducing the skeletal imbalance. Repositioning of the lower jaw to a new sagittal position is achieved by gradual or abruptive anterior/posterior adjustments of at least one magnetic unit within the plane of skeletal imbalance to the point where the attractive magnetic force causes full overlapping of juxtaposed magnetic units and overcomes the counterforce of the stretched mandibular muscles. Also, at least one of the anterior magnetic units may be adjustable in the vertical direction. Posterior positioned upper and lower magnets may be incorporated in the FOMA having poles in an attractive and repulsive orientation for the correction of deep bite or open bite malocclusions, simultaneously with the sagittal correction of the upper or lower jaws. The FOMA can be constructed as a fixed or removable appliance, and can also be integrated with an extra oral appliance such as a headgear.
109 Hygienic magnetic eruptor US50465 1987-05-18 US4869667A 1989-09-26 Alexander D. Vardimon
A hygienic magnetic eruptor compelling and guiding the eruption of an impacted tooth fully embedded inside the jaw, through the gum and into a dental arch space. An intra-magnetic unit may be bonded to the tip of the impacted tooth inside the jaw bone or placed in the bony plate layer between the impacted tooth and the dental arch space. An intra-oral magnetic unit generating a greater magnetic force than the intra-bony magnetic unit is positioned in the dental arch space for pulling the impacted tooth toward the dental arch space. Initially, a surgical procedure is undertaken to provide a flap in the gum at the desired point of entry for accessing the impacted tooth, and thereafter some of the bone which interferes with the normal eruption of the impacted tooth is removed to provide a tunnel to the tip of the crown of the impacted tooth or to the bony plate adjacent to the impacted tooth. A sterile intra-bony magnetic unit is inserted in the tunnel and secured in place and then the flap is reconnected to the gum for asceptically isolating the sterile intra-bony magnetic unit from the non-sterile oral cavity, to almost simulate the natural eruption process of an impacted tooth.
110 Magnetic force orthodontic kit and appliances constructed therefrom US693268 1985-01-22 US4595361A 1986-06-17 Abraham Blechman; Eugene A. Pescatore
A kit is provided containing magnetic modules, attachment wire and a set of gages. The modules are rectangular prismatic formed from a cobalt-samarium alloy, covered with a chlorinated poly-p-xylene coating or stainless steel and jacketed in stainless steel with orthogonally related passages on opposite sides having rectangular cross-sections for receiving with a snug fit the rectangular cross-section attachment wire formed by welding together two lengths of standard edgewise wire. The gages provide means for spacing the modules when the latter are incorporated in an appliance.Appliances are illustrated for accomplishing a variety of orthodontic procedures. The construction of the modules and attachment wire permits construction of appliances where the modules are constrained in the jaw closed in centric condition to translate parallel to their respective pole faces in a "sliding" fashion.

112 Palatal retention device US584813 1984-02-29 US4526539A 1985-07-02 Abraham Blechman; Eugene A. Pescatore
A palatal body is custom configured and dimensioned to fit within the oral cavity with an outer edge conforming to and engaging the lingual faces of the teeth of the maxillary arch. The dimensions are chosen to retain the arch either in an expanded condition associated with separation of the mid-palatal suture, or in some other predetermined position following suitable prior treatment of a cleft palate patient. A plurality of diametrally or longitudinally polarized cylindrical magnets are arrayed in parallel and in parallel to the palate body, all oriented with their axes in the bucco-lingual direction, and individually mounted for rotation under the influence of intraoral activity for inducing therapeutic levels of voltage and current in the adjacent bone structure of the natural palate on either side of the palatal gap.
113 Integrated oral magnetic osteogenic and orthodontic appliances US516201 1983-07-22 US4457707A 1984-07-03 Harry Smiley; Abraham Blechman
