Abstract:
An orthodontic distractor includes two rods connected so as to be spread apart are brought together at either end. Also, a first coupling assembly is configured to couple the first rod to a bicuspid and a molar tooth of a patient and a second coupling assembly is configured to couple the second rod to a bicuspid and a molar tooth of a patient. Also, the first coupling assembly includes first extension arms attached to the first rod so as to permit adjustment of a vertical angle between said first rod and said first extension arms, and the second coupling assembly comprises second extension arms coupled to the second rod, so as to permit adjustment of a vertical angle between said first rod and said first extension arms.

Claim (Index 2):
An orthodontic distractor capable of expansion or constriction to adjust the position of one or more of a patient's upper, lower teeth, jaws, oral cavity and airway, the distractor comprising:\n a screw assembly, comprising: a first rod and a second rod, each of the first and second rods having a first end and a second end, wherein each of the first and second rods is couplable to one or more of upper teeth and palatal bones of a patient; a plurality of rotatable head members, each of which comprises a threaded hole, wherein the plurality of rotatable head members comprises a first rotatable head member connected to the first end of the first rod, a second rotatable head member connected to the first end of the second rod, a third rotatable head member connected to the second end of the first rod, and a fourth rotatable head member connected to the second end of the second rod, wherein the threaded holes of the first and second rotatable head members are of opposite hand, and wherein the threaded holes of the third and fourth rotatable head members are of opposite hand; a first twin screw having threaded ends of opposite hand, wherein the threaded ends of the first twin screw are configured to engage the threaded holes of the first and second rotatable head members such that rotation of the first twin screw causes the first and second rotatable head members and the first ends of the first and second rods to either move together or move apart; and a second twin screw having threaded ends of opposite hand, wherein the threaded ends of the second twin screw are configured to engage the threaded holes of the third and fourth rotatable head members such that rotation of the second twin screw causes the third and fourth rotatable head members and the second ends of the first and second rods to either move together or move apart; a first coupling assembly configured to couple the first rod to one or more of upper teeth and palatal bones of a patient a stabilizing member placed between said first and second rod and extending between and engaged to said first twin screw and said second twin screw so as to constrict movement of both said first twin screw and said second twin screw and maintain said first and second twin screws in parallel orientation.
