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.
77 ORTHODONTIC APPLIANCE US11721129 2007-03-23 US20090061375A1 2009-03-05 Teruko Yamamoto; Hiroshi Kamioka; Taiji Adachi; Shogo Fukushima; Takumi Sakimura
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.

80 Vibrational mouth pad orthodontic appliance US752404 1976-12-20 US4123844A 1978-11-07 Craven H. Kurz
An orthodontic appliance in the form of a vibrational pad is provided. The pad is held in place in the mouth of the patient by an external head gear. A vibrational electric motor is mounted on the head gear, and the motor is mechanically coupled to vibrational elements within the mouth pad. The mouth pad is used in conjunction with conventional orthodontic appliances, and it serves to vibrate the teeth being moved by the conventional orthodontic appliances so as to disseminate heavy orthodontic pressures of the conventional appliance to a larger boney mass resulting in lighter more physiological pressure in a larger area. This will increase the speed and efficiency of the orthodontic movement, minimize pain to the patient, and reduce root resorption and horizontal bone loss.
