Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2022/030994
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a teeth-straightening device having an orthopedic function. The teeth-straightening device comprises: upper dental braces mounted on the upper teeth of a user to straighten the arrangement of the upper teeth; lower dental braces mounted on the lower teeth of the user to straighten the arrangement of the lower teeth; and occlusion force-switching parts which are respectively provided on the upper dental braces and the lower dental braces, and which interact with each other in a state in which the upper and lower dental braces come in contact with each other, so that the relative position of a lower jaw is induced into a normal position with respect to an upper jaw. The teeth-straightening device can be freely attached/detached like conventional transparent dental braces so as to be easily used, and can improve the arrangement of teeth and, simultaneously, perform orthopedic-orthodontic treatment.
