Abstract

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.

Claims (5)

1. An orthodontic appliance for aligning teeth including a tooth to be aligned, comprising:

a vibrating element for generating mechanical vibration and applying the vibration to the tooth to be aligned; and a dental mouthpiece having the vibrating element built therein and mountable on the teeth with the vibrating element built therein, and further comprising a flexible board on which the vibrating element is to be mounted, wherein the flexible board includes a circuit for introducing power to the vibrating element and is built in the dental mouthpiece together with the vibrating element.
2. An orthodontic appliance according to claim 1, wherein a board side connector for connecting the flexible board and an external circuit of the dental mouthpiece is mounted on the flexible board.
3. An orthodontic appliance according to claim 2, further comprising a lead wire drawn out from the board side connector mounted on the flexible board; and a tube made of the same material as the dental mouthpiece and adapted to cover the lead wire.
4. An orthodontic appliance according to any one of claims 1 to 3, wherein the flexible board is so built in the dental mouthpiece as to extend in the direction if the teeth and formed with a wiring pattern extending in the longitudinal direction thereof, a plurality of lands used to solder the vibrating element being formed at a plurality of positions of the wiring pattern.
5. An orthodontic appliance according to any one of claims 1 to 4, wherein the vibrating element includes a motor having an output shaft and an electric weight mounted on the output shaft; and a cover member for covering the eccentric weight is so fixed to the flexible board as to define a space necessary for the rotation of the eccentric weight.
