Kim Hyok, a dentist at the Kim Chaek University of Technology Hospital , has recently developed an electric stimulus pain relieving device that can be used in treating toothache, tooth pulp membrane inflammation and temporomandibular articulation disorder. This device has proved very effective for articulatio mandibularis disorder.
Temporomandibular articulation disorder caused by various factors like wound and ankylosis after surgery is known as a disease whose treatment costs a lot of effort and produces a little good result.
Aware of the importance of the application of this appliance in improving the quality of medical service, Kim Hyok conducted research into it for a long time. In the course of this, he discovered rational structure of electrolytes for curing functional disorder of the disease and selected wave type and frequency corresponding to it through repeated experiments. Then he defined the technical specifications of all parts and finally succeeded in manufacturing the device.
The device relieves tension and pain of temporomandibular articulation and its functional disorder to a significant extent by giving electric stimulus of various types of wave. It improves the effect of treatment and shortens the period of treatment while using little medicine or none at all, and is convenient to use and cheap to manufacture.
A man at the university said: I suffered from articulatio mandibularis disorder last year. As I could not open my mouth, I could not eat properly or speak. But as I started to treat myself with this device, I could eat after a few days, even sing after ten days and was completely cured of the disease several days later. It was wonderful.
