Abstract

See full text

This toothbrush is intended to create healthy gums while cleaning teeth. This toothbrush with its unique combination of bush geometry, specific rotational directions, and brush movement from gums to teeth crowns, will not loosen gums and will correctly position gums as the brush rotational motion and brush movement is always in the direction of gum growth, from gums to teeth crowns. All present toothbrushes, electric and manual on the market, tend to loosen gums as they brush across the direction of gum growth causing loose gums, receding gums, sensitive teeth, gum-line cavities, diseases as gingivitis, loss of teeth. When a dentist and/or hygienist clean under gums, or when a dentist does gum-line fillings, tooth extractions, tooth implants, and receding gum repair, gums need correct alignment to be maintained for a period of time while gums reattach. This toothbrush will be the only brush on the market capable of maintaining gum alignment for a period of time while gums reattach, avoiding tooth problems listed above. With a camera attached, gums can be viewed to insure correct gum positioning as well as spot cleaning teeth. The viewing device uses a type of cell phone most buyers already will have.
