Definitions

  • the present patent relates to an object to be used for the cleaning of teeth and gums of a shape different from those currently generally employed, which are in the form of a brush or toothbrush, with a methodology of use different from that of the brush. with tooth.
  • the invention consists of a set of bristles (1) made of plastic, at one end of a support (2) itself made of plastic, which makes the set similar to a brush to be used for the internal and external cleaning of teeth; the other end of the support in the form of a toothpick (3) with dimensions and profiles such that it can be introduced into the interdental space to remove food waste.
  • the set of plastic, silk or other bristles can be attached to the plastic, metal or other support, but to reduce manufacturing costs and, to obtain (since this is the objective) an extremely reduced price, the hairy set (1) constitutes a whole with the support (2) and with the toothpick (3), preferably the whole is produced with an appropriate material and with a single molding operation.
  • the part with the bristles is covered (contained) with (in) a cap (4) of plastic or other material which has the function of protection against external agents and can be a reservoir of products for the cleaning of the teeth.
  • the object must be suitably profiled (5), so that the action of the brush and the toothpick is applied either on the external part or on the internal part teeth.
  • the toothpick can have different forms provided that it does not damage the gums; the half-moon shape is appropriate.
  • the shape of the set of bristles can be of different types such as those represented in the drawing F1, F2, F3, and the like, and also the profiles P1, P2, P3, and the like.
  • the methodology for using the object for teeth cleaning operations may be different from that of the toothbrush normally used.
  • a variant consists of the support which, inserted between the brush and the toothpick can be partly rigid and partly rubber with the internal pipe (6) which contains the product.
  • the flexible part By pressing the flexible part makes it possible to eject the product through a channel (7).
  • a cap protects the part of the hairs, and so that there is no ejection of the product the hole or possibly the holes are closed with an appendix (8) located inside the hood itself, Figure C.
  • the teeth cleaning operations with the brush with toothpick can be different from those used today, but they allow and invite the executor, without any difficulty compared to current methods, to bypass the gums by intervening on the parts teeth and gums that are normally overlooked.
