DENTAL RETRACTOR WITH MICRO MIRROR
20210045625 · 2021-02-18 · ·

This invention is related to a dental retractor including a body part having a handle portion, a neck portion extending from the handle portion, and a mirror part having a micro mirror, which is detachably attached to an end of the neck portion, such that the projection can be inserted in to a hole formed at a surgical site to observe an inside the hole. According to the present invention, since the dental retractor has the mirror part for observing the interior of the oral cavity, the number of operations, the number of persons required for the operation and the working time are reduced and it is not necessary to separately use a dental mirror. In addition, since the dental retractor has a mirror such as a micro mirror at the head portion, a doctor or other practitioner/technician can use the other hand to perform a medical examination.

Handle for Oral Hygiene Tool
20210038345 · 2021-02-11 ·

Disclosed herein are embodiments for a handle for securing a patient's mouth in place while an oral procedure is performed. A handle includes a handle head extending from a handle body, the handle head comprising exterior border bumpers to the sides. An indented portion lies in between the border bumpers, the indented portion having grooves oriented substantially perpendicular to a length of the border bumpers. The indented region is configured to receive a patient's teeth and lock the patient's mouth open by preventing the teeth from sliding off the surface of the handle head. With the patient's mouth securely open, a caregiver may then use a second tool (e.g., a toothbrush, flosser, tongue cleaner, etc.) for cleaning the patient's mouth or performing any other oral procedure.

DENTAL FORCEPS STRUCTURE
20210068920 · 2021-03-11 ·

A dental forceps structure, including: a fixture body, including an elastic connection portion, two elastic arms formed on two ends of the elastic connection portion, and two bended clamping portions each formed on one end of one of the elastic arms; two accommodation elements, each configured on one of the clamping portions; and two barriers, configured on the respective clamping portions and positioned between the accommodation elements and fixture body, and adapted to isolate the disturbance of surrounding tissues and organs. With the above structure, a user only needs to manually pull the elastic arms apart after placing a water suction element between the accommodation elements and place the clamping portions on the two sides of an affected part, thereby using the elastic force of the elastic connection to contract the elastic arms inward to allow the clamping portions to be naturally fixed on the affected part.

Lubrication information management device for dentistry

A lubrication information management device includes: a lubrication detector provided to a lubrication unit; an instrument wireless tag provided to an instrument; and a read-write unit which is either an antenna or a reader-writer. Moreover, the read-write unit communicates lubrication information to the instrument wireless tag when the lubrication detector detects any of lubrication of the instrument and an operation for lubrication. This makes it possible to reliably manage the lubrication of a dental instrument.
