发明名称 ERGONOMIC TOOL FOR ATRAUMATIC TOOTH EXTRACTION
摘要 An ergonomic tool for atraumatic tooth extraction consists in an innovative tool that solves all problems related to tooth extraction which, by its own nature, is a traumatic and lengthy process that requires the prolonged application of strong physical forces and involves high risks of iatrogenic effects. An ingenious combination of two components—holding pliers that firmly keep the tooth to be extracted fixed between the active tips thereof before, during and after avulsion, and an extractor device which, by means of a lever and millimetric screw system, slowly applies strong forces for extracting the tooth without physical effort—makes the following contributions over the prior art: 1. The tool eliminates the numerous iatrogenic effects inherent to traditional tooth extraction, protecting the alveolar edges from injury, avoiding bleeding and any possibility of causing lockjaw in the patient; 2. It has near-zero risk of iatrogenic effects, such as crown breakage and the consequences thereof, as well as temporo-mandibular accidents; 3. It reduces the duration of tooth extraction procedures from about 40 to 4 minutes and the duration of cicatrisation to about 3 days; 4. It does not require physical effort of the dental surgeon; 5. It is the only tool that allows delicate interventions that are practically impossible using a forceps, making it possible to extract teeth with the cementoblast intact, for treatment outside the body, and to re-implant the teeth with absolute safety and very high rates of success; 6. It makes it possible to lift the teeth a few millimetres, with absolute safety, for orthodontic procedures of great value for health and aesthetic appearance; 7. Due to the small size of the tool, it makes tooth extraction possible even when the maximum mouth opening of the patient is reduced, as a result of lockjaw, angular cheilitis or small size of the mouth, for example in children, requiring only 23 mm between the incisal edges of the maxillary central incisors and the incisal edges of the mandibular central incisors; 8. It has a small size, allowing the extraction of the third and fourth molars; 9. It does not require the use of electric or pneumatic drills for drilling crowns, shortening surgery time and reducing patient discomfort; 10. It reduces the cost of dental treatment, increasing the number of people that can benefit from dental care; 11. It has a low cost, since a single tool carries out all tooth extraction or prosthesis and pin withdrawal operations, unlike the present tooling, which requires a collection of more than ten tools; 12. It can be used in scientific veterinary research and medicine, for extracting teeth of small, medium and large size animals that are difficult to handle; 13. It is very easy to use, dispensing with long training periods; 14. Due to the system of universal adjustable pliers with active tips, it allows tooth extraction without support on any of the proximal teeth.
