254 Ultrasonic therapy device for dental implant and therapy method therefor US10372070 2003-02-21 US07163399B2 2007-01-16 Naoko Kajimoto; Atsumi Ohta; Nobuo Ogiwara
An ultrasonic therapy device comprises two bodies and two holding members. The body, at the inner face of which an oscillator is embedded, covers an affected area into which implant fixtures are embedded. The holding member which holds the body has a shape of a crown which covers teeth next to the affected area. Two teeth were removed from the affected area into which two implant fixtures are embedded. Each of the bodies covers the affected area between the teeth which is covered by the holding members so that the bodies are exactly fixed in an oral cavity. In this state, it is possible to accelerate osteogenesis around the implant fixtures by supplying an ultrasonic signal from an external driver to the oscillator.
255 Protraction headgear US10835124 2004-04-29 US07121824B2 2006-10-17 Ahmet Ozlem Keles; Brian Willison
A facebow which overcomes the adverse effects and limitations of current designs by rotating the maxilla in a downward and forward direction, which assists in correcting anterior open bites. This is accomplished by a design that produces forces above the center of resistance of the maxilla and parallel to the Frankfurt horizontal plane. The extra-oral headgear design is characterized by providing two independent adjustments (forehead width and horizontal/vertical dimensions) that allow the appliance to be customized to each patient. In particular, the two independent adjustments are provided by a fully adjustable forehead pad and bilateral adjustable blocks on opposite sides of the facebow extra-oral frame to provide horizontal and vertical adjustments.

A maxillary protraction device (12) characterized with a chin-cup (1); one or more front hook-levers (2) on the front section of said chin-cup (1) to exert a force horizontally and forwards to the maxilla; at least two lateral linear hooks (5) located at the sides of the chin-cup (1) to exert an upwards force to the mandible, front recess (6) to be used for engaging the hooks (2 and 5) to the chin-cup (1) to which the front hook is engaged in a length-adjustable manner, in the same number as that of hooks; and fixing members (9) in the same number as that of hooks.
257 Developed face bow and protraction headgear in correction of anterior openbite Class III patients US11245551 2005-10-07 US20060029899A1 2006-02-09 Ahmet Keles
The aim of this face bow and protraction headgear design is to correct the anterior open bite in dentally Class III open bite cases. Patients were selected and full coverage acrylic cap splint-type rapid maxillary expansion appliance was cemented and activated twice a day for 5 days. After sutural separation, newly developed face bow and protraction headgear was worn and 750 g of force was applied. Newly developed appliance consisted of a face bow and forehead pad. The face bow had intraoral and extraoral components and was custom made individually for each patient. The intraoral bow was inserted from the distal openings of the tubes which was soldered to the extraoral face bow. The extraoral face bow was extended backward till the front of the ear then turned upward and ended at the level of the hooks on the forehead pad. In this extraoral appliance design only the forehead was used as anchorage unit. On both sides of the pad, adjustable wire hooks were placed which allowed us to maintain the distance from the forehead pad hooks to the face bow hooks. Heavy elastics were attached in between the hooks of the face bow and the hooks on the forehead pad.
