The configuration of the dental instrument provides greater versatility to perform the manipulations generally required for tooth extraction.
Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to tools, instruments, and implements used in the medical field, and particularly to a manual dental instrument for elevating and luxating or loosening teeth in preparation for extraction.
- 2. Description of the Related Art
- Although modern medical science and technology have greatly improved the ability of dentists and other medical professionals to retain the natural teeth for their patients, from time to time it is still necessary to extract a natural tooth. Such tooth extractions must still be accomplished by hand, using manual tools for the most part. Accordingly, a number of different tools and instruments have been developed in the past, for extracting a tooth or preparing a tooth for extraction.
- Most of these instruments used for the preparation of extraction, i.e., luxating or loosening the tooth, are shaped or contoured to provide only a single contact point, or at most a single short line of contact, between the tooth and the instrument. The resulting very high localized pressure can often result in the tooth breaking before the root has been loosened sufficiently to facilitate extraction. When this occurs, the dentist or dental professional is left with a considerably more complex and time-consuming operation to remove the remaining tooth. This additional work results in additional trauma for the patient.
- None of the above inventions and patents, taken either singly or in combination, is seen to describe the instant invention as claimed. Thus, a dental instrument solving the aforementioned problems is desired.
- The dental instrument is formed of a single elongate, unitary length of surgical steel or other suitable material. The instrument preferably includes two mutually opposed working end portions and a generally medial cushioned handgrip portion. Each of the end portions has a shallow axial channel with a sharpened distal end having a notch formed therein. The two sides of the notch provide two contact points or areas to avoid the extreme pressures applied by conventional single contact point instruments and the resulting breakage of the tooth and subsequent difficulty in extracting the base or root of the tooth that often occurs. A lateral notch having sharpened edges is also preferably formed along one side of each working end portion of the tool.
- The configuration of the dental instrument provides greater versatility to perform the manipulations generally required for tooth extraction. The instrument enables the dental professional to luxate or loosen the subject tooth prior to extraction by prying or levering the tooth angularly, and provides some ability to rotate the tooth axially as well in order to luxate the tooth prior to applying forceps for the actual extraction. The sharpened blades of the distal end notch of the dental instrument also enable the dental professional to cut the tissue surrounding the subject tooth, thereby further facilitating the removal of the tooth.
- These and other features of the present invention will become readily apparent upon further review of the following specification and drawings.

- The dental instrument enables the dental professional to luxate or loosen a tooth prior to extraction.
FIG. 1 provides an enlarged perspective view of thedental instrument 10, illustrating its general features. Thedental instrument 10 is formed of a rigid,elongate rod 12 of surgical steel or other suitable material, and has a generallymedial handle portion 14 and at least one working portion. The embodiment of theinstrument 10 shown inFIGS. 1 and 4 includes two mutually opposedworking portions working portions distal tip central handle portion 14. -
FIG. 3 of the drawings provides an end elevation view of the first workingend 18 a of thedental instrument 10. This end elevation view shows that the rod or shank of thetool 10 has a generally elliptical cross section, having amajor diameter 20. Each working portion of therod 12 is formed with a shallow channel therein that extends from adjacent thehandle portion 14 to the tip of the respective working portion, e.g., thechannel 22 a of the workingportion 16 a of thetool 10 as shown inFIG. 3 , with the opposite workingportion 16 b having a correspondingshallow channel 22 b, as shown inFIG. 1 . Thechannel 22 a is defined by its mutually opposed, coplanar andparallel channel edges opposite channel 24 a has a similar configuration defined by itschannel edges channel edges - The
tip portion 16 a, lob is formed with a notched and sharpened edge, respectively 28 a and 28 b. The notches preferably define an included angle A of about 135°, as shown most clearly in the top plan view of the workingportion 16 a of theinstrument 10 inFIG. 2 . Other notch angles may be provided. Thenotched tips instrument 10 are beveled. Thebeveled surfaces cutting edges tips portion channel edge notch 34 a of thefirst channel edge 24 a of the first workingportion 16 a andchannel edge notch 34 b of thefirst channel edge 24 b of the second workingportion 16 b. The configurations of the twochannel edge notches notched tips portions tool 10. The first working portionchannel edge notch 34 a has first and secondbeveled surfaces channel edge notch 34 b has first and secondbeveled surfaces channel edge notches channel edge notch 34 a in the plan view ofFIG. 2 . The channel edge sharpenednotches dental instrument 10 in prying or otherwise luxating a tooth in preparation for its extraction. - The
dental instrument 10 is formed with a series of convex and mutuallyadjacent knobs 40 disposed axially therealong and surrounding themedial handle portion 14 of theinstrument 10. Theknobs 40 preferably increase in diameter from the first knob adjacent the respective workingend instrument 10 to a medial largest diameter knob. Each of theknobs 40 has a circular cross section that is somewhat larger than themajor diameter 20 of the elliptical cross section of the working portion of theinstrument 10, as shown in the end view ofFIG. 3 . Aresilient handgrip 42 is molded or otherwise formed over theknobs 40 of themedial portion 14 of theinstrument 10. Thehandgrip 42 material preferably comprises a pliable material having a high surface coefficient of friction, e.g., Neoprene® or other suitable material having similar properties. The resilient material of thehandgrip 42 is preferably molded or otherwise formed to conform to the different diameters of theunderlying knobs 40 in order to provide a good grip for the dentist or dental professional using theinstrument 10. -
FIG. 4 of the drawings provides an illustration of thedental instrument 10 as it might be used for luxating a tooth T in preparation for extraction of the tooth. Thetip 18 b of the first workingend 16 b may be worked alongside the subject tooth T, or perhaps levered between adjacent teeth as a result of the relatively thin material defining thechannel 22 a. The opposite workingend 16 a may be used in a similar manner, as desired. Theinstrument 10 may be worked around the tooth T to loosen the tooth within its socket. The twobeveled surfaces FIGS. 1 through 3 ) result in two contact points or lines across the beveled surfaces to greatly reduce point pressure on the tooth, This greatly reduces the chances of the tooth T fracturing across its diameter, and the subsequent need to remove the base of the tooth from the socket and the accompanying difficulties and additional trauma that such a procedure entails for the patient. Accordingly, thedental instrument 10 will serve to facilitate and ease the procedure of luxating a tooth in preparation for its extraction during dental procedures. - It is to be understood that the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above, but encompasses any and all embodiments within the scope of the following claims.
