Description
Dental instrument and dental instrument system Technical Field The present utility model relates to the field of medical devices, and more particularly to the field of oral appliances, and more particularly to a dental device and dental device system. Background In the field of orthodontic treatment, aiming at early malocclusion of the growth and development stage of children, dental arch stenosis, tooth crowding and the like are often caused, and in clinic, the remote movement of molar teeth is usually considered to avoid tooth extraction or reduce the tooth extraction quantity. In the existing push-grind tooth remote therapy, anchorage control is usually needed, namely, the group tooth anchorage, or the planting anchorage or the extraoral arch is used as the anchorage, and the planting anchorage or the extraoral arch anchorage has better anchorage effect. However, the two types of the anchorage respectively have the following problems that (1) the implant anchorage has a wound risk, an implant body and a tension spring part are needed to be additionally arranged when the implant anchorage is used, food residues are easy to accumulate at the connecting part of the implant body and the tension spring, if the implant body is improperly cleaned, the periphery of the implant body can be inflamed due to poor oral hygiene for a long time, and the implant body is fallen off. (2) The external arch is used as an anchorage, such as a split external arch disclosed in a Chinese patent with a patent number of CN202322276940.0, but the external arch is large in size, the installation of the external arch is required to be completed by a clinician, an infant cannot complete the installation by himself, in addition, the external arch part outside the mouth is positioned outside the mouth, the external image of the infant is influenced by means of a head cap, in addition, the child is lively and active, in daily life, the external arch and the head cap outside the mouth are easy to hook foreign matters, and danger is brought to the infant. The infant is easy to generate conflicted emotion when wearing, thereby influencing the correction period and effect of the infant. In addition, in some studies, it has been shown that muscles have a critical effect on stability after orthodontic treatment at a developmental stage, and in some cases, muscle problems are causative factors of oral problems, and neglecting muscle problems may cause difficulty in correction or recurrence after treatment, so in orthodontic treatment of children, it is also common to consider blocking the effect of muscles on teeth by using the vestibular shield or the buccal shield. At present, no matter the vestibular shield or the cheek shield is used for blocking teeth, or the pushing and grinding tooth remote moving device is used for remote grinding teeth, the two teeth can not be simultaneously carried out, so that the whole correction period of the children orthodontic is longer, the compliance of the children is generally poorer, and the final correction effect is not obvious. Disclosure of utility model The utility model solves the technical problems of overcoming the defects in the prior art, and provides a dental instrument and a dental instrument system, which can integrate the vestibular shield and the push and grind tooth remote movement function and can utilize the high-efficiency children correction device of the labial muscle anchorage, so that the vestibular shield is utilized to block the labial muscle, and meanwhile, the accurate force application of a shell-shaped body and the natural pressure of the labial muscle are combined, and the dependence on the external anchorage during the push and grind tooth remote movement is reduced. In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical scheme adopted by the utility model is as follows: The dental appliance comprises a shell-shaped body for pushing and grinding teeth to move far and an auxiliary force application device connected with a shell-shaped body rear tooth area, wherein the shell-shaped body is provided with a plurality of tooth accommodating cavities for accommodating maxillary teeth or mandibular teeth, the auxiliary force application device comprises a vestibular shield and force application rods, the left end and the right end of the vestibular shield are respectively provided with a force application rod, the first end of the force application rods is connected with the vestibular shield, the second end of the force application rods, which is opposite to the first end, is connected with the shell-shaped body rear tooth area, the second end of the force application rods is provided with a first connecting part, the cheek side walls of the back tooth areas on the left side and the right side of the shell-shaped body are respectively provided with a second connecting part, the auxiliary force application device is mounted on the cheek side walls of the back tooth areas on the left
