US 2026/0076773 A1 · ORAL TRAUMA STABILIZER DEVICE

Abstract

An oral trauma stabilizer includes an upper stabilizer and a lower stabilizer. A plurality of shock absorbers couple the upper stabilizer to the lower stabilizer. The upper and lower stabilizers have an arcuate body extending from a first end to a second end. A channel is formed in each arcuate body and extends along a length from the first end to the second end of the arcuate body. A cross section of each channel may vary along the length of the respective channel. In use, the oral trauma stabilizer stabilizes an injured tooth, bone, or other portion of a patient's oral anatomy using non-affected portions of the dentition or other oral anatomy to secure the oral trauma stabilizer in place.

Dependent claims

An oral trauma stabilizer, comprising:

an upper stabilizer comprising:
an arcuate outer side wall defining an outer periphery of the upper stabilizer;
an arcuate inner side wall defining an inner periphery of the upper stabilizer;
a planar element spanning the outer side wall to the inner side wall and defining a biting surface configured for receiving the upper dentition of a patient;
a lower stabilizer comprising:
an arcuate outer side wall defining an outer periphery of the lower stabilizer;
an arcuate inner side wall defining an inner periphery of the lower stabilizer;
a planar element spanning the outer side wall to the inner side wall and defining a biting surface configured for receiving the lower dentition of the patient;
and
a plurality of shock absorbers coupling the upper stabilizer to the lower stabilizer;
wherein the upper stabilizer, lower stabilizer, and plurality of shock absorbers are integrally formed as a single piece.

An oral trauma stabilizer, comprising:

an upper stabilizer, comprising an arcuate-shaped upper stabilizer body having an upper channel to receive an upper dentition of a patient, wherein the upper channel extends along a length from a first end of the upper stabilizer body to a second end of the upper stabilizer body, the upper stabilizer body comprising:
a base portion;
an outer side wall coupled to the base portion and defining an outer periphery of the upper stabilizer body;
an inner side wall coupled to the base portion and defining an inner periphery of the upper stabilizer body;
a lower stabilizer, comprising an arcuate-shaped lower stabilizer body having a lower channel to receive a lower dentition of the patient, wherein the lower channel extends along a length from a first end of the lower stabilizer body to a second end of the lower stabilizer body, the lower stabilizer body comprising:
a base portion;
an outer side wall coupled to the base portion and defining an outer periphery of the lower stabilizer body;
an inner side wall coupled to the base portion and defining an inner periphery of the lower stabilizer body;
a plurality of shock absorbers extending from a lower surface of the base portion of the upper stabilizer body to an upper surface of the base portion of the lower stabilizer body to couple the upper stabilizer to the lower stabilizer;
wherein the plurality of shock absorbers are integrally formed with the upper stabilizer body and the lower stabilizer body.
