toothbrush head
overcome existing problems by allowing bristles moving along the teeth
removing plaque very
effectively by sweeping it out of the teeth.

Description: Toothbrush Head
The present invention relates to an improved toothbrush assembly in which
oscillating brush head is
used.
The known prior art electric toothbrushes are not effective due to of
incorrect bristles movement. Teeth
are actually not as clean as we think they are, even by cleaning them more
than twice a day using the
best tools available on the market, evidence of that is appearance of the
tartar, leading to periodontal
diseases, caries, extraction of healthy teeth and also frequent dentists visit
for teeth cleaning.
Main object of the invention is to provide an electric toothbrush head which
provides good cleaning, in
particular in interdental and gum line regions eliminating plaque build-up and
tartar as well.
It is obvious that brushing should be done in an up-and-down direction, means
along the teeth not
across which is found in most conventional electric toothbrushes. The proposed
toothbrush head Figl.
and Fig. 2 overcome existing problems by allowing bristles moving along the
teeth removing plaque very
effectively by sweeping it out of the teeth.
