SPRING CLIP MOUNTED TO WITHDRAWABLE ARTIFICIAL TOOTH AND REMOVABLE ARTIFICIAL TOOTH ASSEMBLED WITH SAME

摘要

The present invention provides a spring clip mountable to a withdrawable artificial tooth and a removable artificial tooth that is assembled through the spring clip. The spring clip mounted to the withdrawable artificial tooth can clamp a projection block formed on a corresponding internal crown or a neighboring tooth to allow the external crown to be removed by direct application of force to the external crown thereby allowing a user to easily remove the artificial tooth (the external crown) for cleaning.

主权项

1. A removable artificial tooth for working with a projection block formed on a surface of a neighboring tooth, comprising:
an artificial tooth, which is adjacent to the neighboring tooth and having an adjacent surface to which a spring clip is provided, the spring clip corresponding, in position, to the projection block, the spring clip comprising: a first spring arm, which has an end forming a first fixed end and an opposite end forming a first movable end, wherein the first fixed end is fixed inside an external crown; and a second spring arm, which has an end forming a second fixed end and an opposite end forming a second movable end, wherein the second fixed end is fixed inside the external crown; wherein the first movable end and the second movable end are spaced from each other by a distance that is less than width of the projection block, whereby when the external crown is pressed down to fit over the internal crown, the first movable end and the second movable end are expanded outward by the projection block to allow the projection block to get into the space between the first spring arm and the second spring arm.
