Definitions
- the Herbst device when the Herbst device extends from a molar on the upper dental arch to a bicuspid tooth on the lower dental arch, the device and tube assembly of the Herbst assembly may obstruct access to a large number of teeth. This resulting obstruction makes it extremely difficult for practitioners to properly affix conventional orthodontic brackets to the anterior facing surfaces of teeth requiring treatment.
- Various ad hoc approaches by various practitioners have been attempted to address this problem, however, none of them have provided a suitable solution. Further, it has often become necessary, after using a Herbst device to correct or straighten teeth that have been affected by the use of the Herbst device. This, of course, increases the overall treatment time and cost borne by the patient.
- the orthodontic appliance 10, as described, above, and which includes a multiple section elongated telescoping assembly 80 also has a biasing assembly 90 which is received, at least in part, within the internal cavity 84 of at least one of the telescoping sections 83 of the multiple section elongated telescoping assembly 80 (Fig. 7).
- the biasing spring exerts a biasing force which is applied to the multiple section elongated telescoping assembly 80 only when the multiple section, elongated telescoping assembly 80 is moving along in the course of travel 85, and is closely adjacent to or at, the second, retracted position 87, and which is located along the course of travel 85 (Fig. 8).
- the inside diametral dimension 213 of the helically shaped biasing or compression spring 90 is greater than the outside diametral dimension 195 as measured at the first end 192 of the inner elongated rod 190. Consequentially, and because of this dimensional relationship, the first end 192 of the elongated rod may pass into the internal cavity 216 which is defined by the inside diametral dimension 213 of the main body 211 (Fig. 10).
- the biasing force of the compression spring 90 is never directly applied to the first end 192, but is transmitted to the first end 162 of the second intermediate tube 160.
- several different forms of the compression spring 90 could be fabricated. These several forms of the compression spring 90 could vary in length, cross-sectional dimension, and the amount of biasing force exerted. These individual compression springs 90 would be useful in addressing unique patient needs and which have been identified by the treating clinician.
- the method further includes another step of orientating the first attachment member 130 within the gap 77 that is defined between the first portion 76 of one of the fasteners 71 and 72, respectively in the main body 53 of the archwire coupler 51 , and which is affixed on the upper dental arch 11 of the patient by the fastener 71 so that the first attachment member in the outer cylindrically shaped tube 100 freely rotates about the gap 77.
- the method of the present invention includes another step of providing a first intermediate tube 140 which is defined by an elongated main body 141 , and which further has opposite first and second ends 142 and 143, respectively, and an outside and inside facing surface 144 and 145, respectively.

Abstract
La présente invention concerne un appareil orthodontique qui coopère à la fois avec les arcades dentaires supérieure et inférieure d'un patient et qui comprend un coupleur d'arc qui est fixé à des fils métalliques pour arc individuels qui sont fixés de façon amovible à la surface orientée vers l'avant des dents d'un patient nécessitant un traitement orthodontique ; et un ensemble télescopique allongé à sections multiples qui est raccordé de façon rotative et amovible aux fils métalliques pour arc fixés aux arcades dentaires supérieure et inférieure d'un patient subissant un traitement, et l'ensemble télescopique allongé à sections multiples effectuant un déplacement de l'arcade dentaire supérieure dans une direction vers l'arrière, et l'arcade dentaire inférieure dans une direction vers l'avant lorsque l'ensemble télescopique allongé à sections multiples est dans une position donnée le long d'un trajet de déplacement prédéterminé.
