| Abstract |
Subject and goals. At the initial stage of diagnosis of the disease associated with congenital clefts of the upper lip and palate and other anomalies of the oral cavity, appropriate medical technical means of diagnosis are necessary. Currently, to measure the strength (pressure) of the muscles of the tongue, diagnostic methods are used, implemented with the help of electrical measuring instruments. However, such measuring instruments are not safe for the life of patients, electromagnetic influence from the measuring instrument on the patient's body is not excluded and an electrical breakdown of the electrical part of the sensor is possible. The aim of this study is to develop safe for the health of patients fiber-optic technical means of diagnosis of diseases associated with congenital clefts of the upper lip and palate and other anomalies of the oral cavity.
Materials and methods. When developing the design of the fiber-optic sensor of force (pressure) of muscles, the basics of circuit design of measuring devices, methods of geometric and fiber optics were used.
Results. A fiber-optic sensor of the force (pressure) of the muscles of the tongue on the palate for use in therapeutic dentistry is proposed. Recommendations for laying optical fibers in the sensor, providing an increase in the sensitivity of optical signal conversion in the transducer, are developed.
Conclusions. The new technical solution fiber-optic sensor of force (pressure) of muscles of language in stomatology will allow to provide safe, exact and reliable measurement, to improve quality of service of small patients at an initial stage of diagnostics of the disease connected with congenital clefts of the upper lip and the sky and other anomalies of an oral cavity.
