The present invention concerns an orthodontic appliance for accelerating the tooth aligning effect and shortening the treatment period, and has an object to provide an appliance which can bring about higher aligning effect than usual ways by giving vibration to tooth to be aligned to activate bone remodeling of the targeted tooth and the alveolar bone and enhance the shift of the tooth. This appliance includes a vibrating element and a dental mouthpiece having the vibrating element built therein. The provision of the vibrating element in the dental mouthpiece facilitates the application of vibration and handling, and continues the treatment safely even at home. The inner shape of the dental mouthpiece serves aligning treatment as well as acceleration of the effect.

An orthodontic appliance capable of remarkably shortening a period of treatment and reducing burdens on patients is provided with braces to be mounted on a specified tooth included in teeth, a magnetic field generator and a magnetic element to be attached to the teeth. The magnetic element vibrates in response to a magnetic field generated by the magnetic field generator and applies the vibration thereof to the tooth on which the braces are mounted.

The present invention aims to provide an orthodontic appliance capable of aligning teeth within a shorter period of time than usual without using braces including an orthodontic wire and brackets. This appliance is provided with a dental mouthpiece mountable on teeth and a vibrating element. The dental mouthpiece is so shaped as to apply a biasing force in an aligning direction to a tooth to be aligned in the teeth while being mounted on the teeth. The vibrating element is attached to the dental mouthpiece, generates mechanical vibration and applies the vibration to the tooth to be aligned, thereby activating the bone remodeling of a target tooth and an alveolar bone to promote an orthodontic effect.
144 ORTHODONTIC TOOTH RETENTION SYSTEM US11969423 2008-01-04 US20080176180A1 2008-07-24 Eugene L. 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 pair of dental modules, in the form of mutually attracted members, that are temporary retained on a delivery member and positioned on a patient's teeth. In one exemplary embodiment, the dental modules have rounded and/or chamfered edges and a sloped lingual surface. In one exemplary embodiment, the delivery member is substantially L-shaped. Advantageously, the substantially L-shape of the delivery member allows an orthodontist to enter only a small portion of the patient's oral cavity to position the dental modules on a patient's teeth. Further, the substantially L-shape of the delivery member eases the orthodontist's delivery of the dental modules into a patient's mouth by substantially eliminating the need for the orthodontist to manipulate or otherwise move the patient's lips, tongue, and/or cheeks.
145 Orthodontic retainer elements US10275220 2001-04-26 US07300279B2 2007-11-27 Ole Christian Amundsen
A dental retainer device for stabilization, so-called retention, of pairs of teeth or groups of teeth in a lower jaw and/or an upper jaws in orthodontic treatment. The retainer device is formed of a pair (2) of retainer elements, consisting of two preferably individual, but in the position of use cooperating, retainer elements (4, 6). Each of the retainer elements (4, 6) is formed in with a retainer approximal surface (16, 18), the retainer approximal surfaces (16, 18) being formed complementary relative to one another. In use, one or more pairs (2) of retainer elements is/are positioned and secured with its/their individual elements (4, 6) preferably on the inner face of a tooth (20, 22) each of a pair of adjacent teeth, so that in the position of use the retainer approximal surfaces (16, 18) bear on each other and support, possibly lock, each other. Thereby pairs of teeth or groups of teeth are stabilized while it is possible at the same time to carry out normal dental hygiene by means of a toothbrush, dental floss or toothpicks, which is otherwise difficult to carry out when known retainers are used.

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.

149 Magnetic orthodontic appliance US5461 1993-01-04 US5334015A 1994-08-02 Abraham M. Blechman
An orthodontic appliance for intraorally distalizing teeth without patient compliance, comprising a pair of small complementary permanent magnetic elements, each having a coaxial hole for slidably mounting the magnets on a single common sectional wire, in an arrangement to repel one another, with each element having a protective coating to prevent corrosion and leaching. Additional means are provided for urging the magnetic elements along the sectional wire into predetermined proximity as the molar tooth or teeth distalize. This arrangement avoids undesirable eccentric magnetic movement, maximizes control of the repelling horizontal magnetic forces, and maintains a substantially constant distalizing force without the need for constant readjustment.

An orthodontic face bow in which the outer bow is coupled firmly but separably to the inner bow by magnetic means and the inner bow is coupled to opposite molars in the mouth of the patient by a combination of mechanical and magnetic means, all to the end that, at a predetermined force the outer bow will separate from the inner bow and, at a higher force, the inner bow may be removed from the mouth of the patient so that prevention of injury to the patient by the inner bow may be prevented.
152 Integrated oral magnetic osteogenic appliances US538380 1983-10-03 US4511330A 1985-04-16 Harry Smiley; Abraham Blechman
The invention contemplates a body-mounted fixture for supporting a source of magnetic flux in position as appropriate to coact with intra-oral magnet structure, to non-invasively achieve orthodontic and/or periodontic therapy. In coaction with an intra-oral magnet, the extra-orally mounted source of magnetic flux establishes an orthodontic-force environment (with a range of resultant-force magnitudes and directions), and/or a therapeutically beneficial environment for a selected region of tooth and alveolar bone requiring osteogenesis and soft-tissue repair.
153 Palatal expansion device US560878 1983-12-13 US4507084A 1985-03-26 Abraham Blechman; Eugene A. Pescatore
The invention contemplates an orthodontic palatal expansion device wherein separate palate-body halves are attachable to adjacent maxillary teeth and incorporate permanent magnets arranged in a repulsion mode and mounted in such a way as to apply force needed to split the mid-palatal suture. The reacting fields of these magnets also aid in reorganization of the tissues to insure maintenance of the expansion and to accelerate osteogenesis. The device may be constructed for fixation to the patient, as via orthodontic bands, or it may be fashioned with orthodontic wires that permit selective removal and replacement by the patient.
154 Integrated oral magnetic osteogenic appliances US538491 1983-10-03 US4484895A 1984-11-27 Harry Smiley; Abraham Blechman

An aesthetic, partially removable orthodontic appliance is described, including a polymeric body that conforms to the lingual soft tissue and at least one wire member extending from the polymeric body. Each wire member releasably engages with a respective anchor that is, in turn, connected to the lingual surface of a respective tooth when the polymeric body is moved in a generally gingival direction into abutting relationship with the lingual soft tissue. Other features of the appliance include self-guiding magnetic couplings and couplings based on interlocking mechanical structures that provide releasable engagement between the removable section and the anchors, as well as related methods for making and using the same.
