| 142 | Orthodontic appliance | US631279 | 1984-07-16 | US4588380A | 1986-05-13 | Douglas E. Toll |
| An improved orthodontic appliance of the type generally referred to as headgear, for applying a force to a tooth to move the tooth bodily and/or rotationally, and for pushing outward the cheek to encourage spontaneous jaw growth. The appliance comprises an outer bow intended to be retained adjacent the user's face by a neck strap and an inner bow attached to the outer bow intended to fit within the user's mouth proximate to his cheeks. The inner bow includes left and right activating arms, which arms include shoulder portions to push the cheeks outwardly, and which arms also include noncircular engagement means adapted to fit snugly within tubes fixed to a left and a right rear tooth. The activating arms are formable and sufficiently resilient that they can be selectively deformed to apply a force to the teeth to achieve the desired movement. The noncircular engagement means prevents undesired rotational movement between the appliance and the teeth, and assures that the force developed by the arms will be properly transferred to the teeth. | ||||||
| 143 | 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. | ||||||

| The invention contemplates a unitary intra-oral positioning fixture for use in orthodontic and/or periodontal therapy and bone augmentation. The fixture provides compliant support for two coacting sources of magnetic flux, respectively positioned on the lingual and buccal sides of a region of a tooth or teeth (and adjacent alveolar bone) requiring osteogenesis and soft-tissue repair. | ||||||
| 145 | Universal facebow | US337580 | 1982-01-07 | US4431410A | 1984-02-14 | Howard J. Ruderman |
| A facebow for use in orthodontic procedures is provided with relatively universal adjustability to permit use of a single size of facebow in mouths of a variety of different sizes and further facilitating selective unilateral movement. To this end, the facebow is formed with a conventional outer bow for securement to a cervical elastic strap or head gear; and an inner bow contoured to fit into the mouth of the patient along the dental arch, preferably approximating the molars. The inner bow is secured to the outer bow, and the inner bow is formed with at least a pair of mesial loops arranged to lie along the surface of the teeth over which the inner bow is positioned. These loops provide the four-fold function of (1) providing means for the dentist to adjust the effective length of the inner bow by increasing or decreasing the curvature of the loop; (2) permitting selective unilateral pressure to be applied to the dental arch; (3) providing an added variable site for affixing auxiliary attachments, such as hooks and springs; and (4) providing a finger engaging seat to facilitate facebow manipulation. Additional adjusting loops may be arranged along the inner archwire, again oriented in the plane of the wire along the teeth against which the inner bow is positioned, extending either upwardly or downwardly with respect to the wire. The loops are preferably formed of a height between 30% and 300% of the tooth height or "clinical crown," and a spacing between the legs of the loop between 25% and 150% of loop height. | ||||||
| 146 | Integrated oral magnetic osteogenic and orthodontic appliances | US322423 | 1981-11-18 | US4424030A | 1984-01-03 | Harry Smiley; Abraham Blechman |
| Various types of magnetic or electromagnetic appliances attached intra-orally or extra-orally are used to produce osteogenesis and soft tissue repair in the practice of periodontics and orthodontics. Simultaneously, these innovative magnetic modules generate force fields that produce corrective tooth movement. | ||||||
| 147 | Extraoral anchorage device for use in orthopedics | US100300 | 1979-12-05 | US4378210A | 1983-03-29 | Kenichi Yatabe |
| An extraoral anchorage device for imparting orthopedic force to teeth is provided which comprises outer bows for transmitting an external force to teeth and inner bows for transmitting the force delivered by the outer bows to buccal tubes respectively fixed to said teeth, said inner bows being connected to the outer bows and having outer free ends. In the extraoral anchorage device the improvement consists in that the outer free ends of said inner bows have a non-circular cross section. By the use of the extraoral anchorage device according to the present invention, the orthopedic force is transmitted from the outer free ends of the inner bows to the buccal tubes without rotational movement. | ||||||
| 148 | Orthodontic traction apparatus | US317479 | 1981-11-02 | US4375962A | 1983-03-08 | Irvin S. DeWoskin |
| Orthodontic traction apparatus adapted for attachment, via elastic bands or the like, to an orthodontic instrumentality associated with the teeth for applying traction to the teeth generally in the forward direction with respect to the head. The apparatus comprises headgear adapted to be worn on the head, and a relatively rigid chin cup adapted for connection to the headgear. An implement in the form of a wire arm extends up from the chin cup for attachment at its upper end, via the elastic bands, to the orthodontic instrumentality. The arm is mounted on the chin cup for movement in the direction of its longitudinal axis for adjustment of the position of the upper end of the arm relative to the mouth and for movement relative to the chin cup generally in side-to-side direction with respect to the head. | ||||||
| 149 | Orthopedic pressure appliance and method for controlling development of the maxillary bone | US181632 | 1980-08-26 | US4337036A | 1982-06-29 | Carl S. Hoffman |
| An Orthopedic Pressure Appliance is adapted to be retained in the mouth with resilient wires extending therefrom for attachment to a headcap by elastomeric means for urging the appliance against the maxillary teeth. The upper surface of the appliance has a posteriorly upward sloping flange for engaging the gingival third of the labial surfaces of the anterior teeth and a posteriorly upward sloping surface for supporting the incisive edges of the anterior teeth. The labial-buccal flange tapers downwardly and posteriorly away from the anterior portion thereof to prevent impingement on the gingiva and alveolus. A substantially flat and deep lower surface is provided to avoid entrapment of the mandibular anterior teeth. | ||||||
| 150 | Means for attaching a headgear to a positioner | US127051 | 1980-03-04 | US4330272A | 1982-05-18 | Earl O. Bergersen |
| An orthodontic appliance having a cervical or high pull headgear apparatus attached to a tooth positioner is provided. The positioner, either preformed or custom made and the headgear portion are provided with a secure, yet detachable connection to allow the headgear to be used as a temporary supplement to the tooth positioner and thus provide therapeutic flexibility. Accordingly, the headgear portion may be attached by having wires received in tubes or by hooks, both of which are attached to the outside of the tooth positioner, or by inserting the wires into holes provided in the positioner. The headgear apparatus may thereby be utilized in a number of patients without the requirement for extensive individualized fittings. | ||||||

| 152 | Orthodontic appliance | US755224 | 1976-12-29 | US4167061A | 1979-09-11 | Rolf Forster |
| This invention relates to an orthodontic appliance for correcting the positions of teeth in a jaw. Embodiments of the invention are provided with a low pull and/or a high pull and comprise adjustable spring or rubber elements for transmitting the correcting forces to the teeth. The spring or rubber elements are disposed on the outside of the mouth closely beside the teeth so that the latter are not subjected to disturbing turning and tilting torques. Turning movements of the head and movements of the jaw are compensated. A combination of a high pull and a low pull enables an optimum adjustment of the magnitude and direction of the correcting forces. | ||||||
| 153 | 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. | ||||||
| 154 | Orthodontic traction apparatus | US755435 | 1976-12-29 | US4121341A | 1978-10-24 | Irvin S. DeWoskin |
| Orthodontic traction apparatus for applying traction to the teeth of a patient comprising headgear to be worn by the patient including a pair of side members adapted to be positioned on opposite sides of the patient's head adjacent the ears, and a tensioning assembly on each side member for attachment to an instrumentality associated with the teeth for applying traction thereto. Each tensioning assembly comprises a rod mounted in a guide for sliding movement of the rod axially therein. The guide, in turn, is mounted on the respective side member for axial adjustment relative thereto and also for angular adjustment relative to the side member about an axis extending generally in side-to-side direction with respect to the patient's head. A spring biases the rod to slide axially in the guide to apply traction to the teeth. | ||||||
| 155 | Extraoral force-applying orthodontic appliance | US794407 | 1977-05-06 | US4115921A | 1978-09-26 | Maclay M. Armstrong |
| An extraoral force-reaction device engageable with the wearer's head and/or neck, such as a headcap or a neckband, is connected to an intraoral force-applying device, such as molar bands, by force-producing means, such as springs. Snapback of the force-applying means is restricted by limiting the normal range of movement of the force-applying elements and such snapback is controlled in response to relative movement of the intraoral means and the extraoral force-reaction means away from each other beyond a predetermined maximum limit, or in response to stressing of the force-producing means beyond a predetermined maximum degree of force exerted by the force-producing means. Snapback control may be effected by latching of a limit latch to prevent or limit return movement of the force-reaction device and the force-applying device, or disconnectible means can be disconnected to interrupt the application of primary force to the intraoral means and reaction force to the head or neck engageable means. The force to be exerted by the spring force-producing means can be readily adjustable in predetermined increments, such as by engagement of different holes in a spring anchor strap with an anchor pin, or by a linear ratchet device except where the force-producing means is of a negator type which will produce a constant force in various adjusted positions of the negator force-producing means relative to the reaction device and the force-applying device. Also, various components of the extraoral force-reaction device can be assembled and adjusted as to length by connection of separable connections, which may include linear ratchet means. | ||||||
| 156 | Orthodontic safety face bow | US593327 | 1975-07-07 | US4087915A | 1978-05-09 | Lawrence F. Andrews |
| A safety face bow having inner and outer wires, the outer wires adapted for coupling to a head cap and/or a neck pad and the inner wires adapted for terminating in an orthodontic buccal tube in which a blunt extension beyond the end of the inner wire is added for the prevention of impalement by the ends of the inner wire if the face bow assembly is pulled out of the patient's mouth. In one embodiment, the outer wire is also removably attached to the inner wire with the additional blunt edge forming a latch for retention of the inner wire should the outer wire be pulled while being worn within the patient's mouth. | ||||||
| 157 | Orthodontic neck band including safety strap | US639757 | 1975-12-11 | US4040188A | 1977-08-09 | Jacob J. Masel |
| A safety orthodontic neck band including a resilient band connected at its ends with an extra-oral orthodontic appliance for tensioning purposes when the orthodontic appliance is applied to the teeth of a patient. The apparatus also includes a non-extensible safety band which is co-extensive with the resilient neck band and overlies the resilient neck band in close proximity. The safety band also connects to the ends of the orthodontic appliance to thereby prevent accidental or unwanted movement of the extra-oral orthodontic appliance forwardly relative to the teeth of the patient. The orthodontic neck band including safety strap of the present invention functions to prevent forward movement of the orthodontic appliance and at the same time continuously tensions the appliance during all periods of use. | ||||||
| 158 | Orthodontic appliance guard | US661973 | 1976-02-27 | US4038754A | 1977-08-02 | Maclay M. Armstrong |
| Danger of serious injury caused by sharp projections on a displaceable intraoral orthodontic appliance is avoided, or at least greatly decreased, by providing guards alongside such projections or by substituting guards for such projections. Such a guard can be a wire having an enlarged blunt end portion preferably in the form of a loop. The guard wire is mounted alongside the sharp projection of the orthodontic appliance, such as an inner bow anchor tip, and projects beyond such tip. In some instances, the sharp tip, such as a spur, can simply be replaced by a wire having a blunt tip. | ||||||
| 159 | Orthodontic appliance force equalizer | US39112973 | 1973-08-24 | US3918159A | 1975-11-11 | ANDREWS LAWRENCE F |
| An orthodontic appliance force equalizer for equalizing the tension on an orthodontic appliance such as a conventional face bow in which a coil spring reel is carried within a housing mounted on a headband and within which the coil spring acts to maintain an adjustable but constant tension. A cord such as a nylon cord is wrapped around the coil spring reel from opposite directions and is in turn attached to each end of the orthodontic face bow with the spring being partially coiled to exert a predetermined tension or force on the face bow. The reel is rotatably mounted to the case for paying out and taking up the cord as dictated by movement of the patient''s head. The entire assembly is carried in the manner of a headband or neckband on the back of the patient''s head.
