ORAL DEVICE INCLUDING PH SENSOR
20190365320 · 2019-12-05 ·

An oral device for checking a time to go to a dentist. The oral device includes a pH sensor configured to measure pH within an oral cavity, a housing on which the pH sensor is mounted, a processor configured to analyze measured pH from the pH sensor, and a wireless communication unit functionally connected to the processor and configured to perform communication with an external device. The oral device is useful for a patient who needs continuous management such as an implant surgery patient by allowing the patient to visually and easily check a time to go to a dentist and an individual oral condition of the patient. Further, by allowing the user to simply check the condition of the oral cavity at home, it is possible to more effectively manage the condition of the teeth and to save medical expenses.

ORAL IRRIGATOR

An oral irrigator has a first liquid container, a nozzle outlet, a pump driven by a drive to pump liquid from the liquid container to the nozzle outlet so that a liquid jet is emitted via the nozzle outlet, a first switch arranged so that the drive is powered when the first switch is actuated once and the oral irrigator is switched into an ON state, and so that powering of the drive is stopped and the oral irrigator is switched into an OFF state when the first switch is actuated once again, and a second switch arranged so that the drive is powered only while the second switch is continuously actuated by the user and powering is stopped when the second switch is released.

TREATMENT SYSTEM FOR CLEANING A COMPONENT CONTAMINATED BY BIOFILM, IN PARTICULAR AN IMPLANT PART
20190328913 · 2019-10-31 ·

The invention relates to a treatment system (1) for cleaning a component contaminated by biofilm, more particularly for cleaning bacterially contaminated surfaces of bone implants or dental implants (30), the treatment system comprising at least two conductor elements (2, 4) connected to an electrical supply unit (10) to form an electrical circuit. One of the conductor elements can be brought into electrical contact with the component in need of treatment. The object of the invention is to provide a treatment system of this type which allows a particularly acceptable and flexible treatment. To this end, according to the invention at least one of the conductor elements (2, 4) is designed as a diamond electrode (26).

ENDODONTIC SYSTEM AND INSTRUMENT FOR IRRIGATION AND DISINFECTION OF A TOOTH ROOT CANAL

A dental instrument for use with a dental handpiece for cleaning and disinfecting of tooth root canals, the instrument including a shaft and connector for releasable attachment to the handpiece, the shaft comprising: a tip end; a distal portion approximate to the connector; and at least two radial protrusions extending along length of the shaft with a longitudinal groove extending therebetween.

Liquid jet apparatus and methods for dental treatments

Systems and methods for using a liquid jet apparatus for dental treatments are disclosed. In one implementation, the liquid jet apparatus may include a handpiece configured to deliver a high velocity liquid jet to a desired location in the mouth of a patient. The handpiece may include a positioning member having a channel through or along which the jet can propagate. The positioning member may have a distal end portion configured to be at least partially disposed in a pulp cavity, canal space, or opening in the tooth under treatment. During operation, the jet may impact an impingement surface of the distal end portion of the positioning member and be deflected as a spray through one or more openings in the distal end portion. The liquid jet apparatus may be used for root canal treatments.

APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR ENDODONTIC TREATMENT
20190282332 · 2019-09-19 · ·

An apparatus for endodontic treatment, comprising: a nozzle connected to a fluid source comprising: a tip small enough to be inserted into a pulp chamber of a tooth; an inner geometry which forms a flow parameters including non-axial flow direction of nozzle fluid flowing through the inner geometry such that discharge fluid discharged from the inner geometry increase rotation of root canal fluid within a root canal sufficiently to remove tissue from the root canal.

APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR TREATING ROOT CANALS OF TEETH

Apparatus and methods for endodontic treatment of teeth provide effective cleaning of organic material (such as pulp and diseased tissue) from the root canal system. In an embodiment, a compressor system generates high pressure liquid (e.g., water) that flows through an orifice to produce a high-velocity collimated jet of liquid. The high-velocity jet is directed toward a surface of a tooth, for example, an exposed dentinal surface, and impingement of the jet onto the surface generates an acoustic wave that propagates throughout the tooth. The acoustic wave effectively detaches organic material from dentinal surfaces and tubules. The detached organic material is flushed from the root canal system by the liquid jet and/or by additional irrigation.
