Teeth Cleaning Apparatus and Method Thereof
A teeth cleaning apparatus includes a mouthpiece, a transducer, a cleaning liquid supply unit and a power control unit. The mouthpiece includes a containment wall, a hollow ingress tube connector and a vibrator holder. The vibrator holder has a vibrator holder hole and a vibrator holder body, and the transducer has a stationary part and a vibrator part, wherein an end of the stationary part of the transducer is kept in the vibrator holder, and a vibrator part of the transducer is disposed near the containment wall. The cleaning liquid supply unit includes a cleaning liquid container, at least one connecting tube, and a cleaning liquid delivery unit that delivers a cleaning liquid from the cleaning liquid container through the hole of the hollow ingress tube connector of the mouthpiece piece. The power control unit is used for supplying electricity to operate the transducer to generate cavitation bubbles at a vibration frequency to dean teeth.
Methods and apparatus for periodontal scaling and debridement and gum tissue ablation for treating periodontal and peri-implant disease
The present disclosure is directed to tools, systems and methods for recontouring/reshaping gum tissue by engaging a consumable tip on a dental hand tool to abrade/ablate excess or mal-contoured gum tissue to allow better visualization of the tooth/implant structure and reduce the periodontal pockets to provide improved access for cleaning. In some embodiments, the dental hand tool may use vibrational movement, longitudinal reciprocating movement, rotational movement, reciprocating rotational movement, or a combination of any of the above movement schemes. In some embodiments, a consumable tip may be directed for cleaning tooth/implant surfaces and for recontouring/reshaping gum tissue.

LASER-ASSISTED ORAL SURGERY SYSTEM
Periodontal disorders such as disorders associated with a dental implant are treated. An average power for a laser is selected via a user interface on a tablet, along with a set of permissible laser parameters provided in response to the selected average power. A gingival trough or flap is created around the implant with the laser. Infected tissue is selectively ablated or denatured via photothermolysis, and a pocket is lased around the affected implant. Marginal tissues are compressed against the implant.

ORAL CAVITY CLEANING DEVICE
An oral cavity cleaning device, which comprises a body, a water jet tip, a first motor, a second motor, a brush, and a water suction assembly. A rotating shaft extends out of an upper end surface of the body. The first motor drives the rotating shaft to vibrate to drive the brush to vibrate. The upper end surface of the body further comprises a water outlet, and the water jet tip is disposed on the upper end surface of the body and is in communication with the water outlet. Further, the water jet tip is disposed on a side of the brush facing a user, and the water jet tip is disposed below bristles of the brush. The second motor drives the water suction assembly to pump water from a built-in or external container, and water from a water passage disposed in the body sprays out of the water outlet and the water jet tip.
Comprehensive and Personalized Oral Care System and Method of Use Thereof
The present invention relates to a comprehensive oral care system. The oral care system provides users with an improved dental cleaning system to ensure people can practice optimal oral care routines. The system has an extendable mouthpiece for receiving the teeth and the tongue of a user. The mouthpiece has a plurality of brushes, and more specifically, three brushes for each tooth for brushing. The mouthpiece also releases water, dental rinse agents, and mouthwash for providing complete oral care. The system has a touch panel that can be used for configuration of parameters like speed and pressure of brushes, amount of water, dental rinse agents and mouthwash and other solutions for meeting requirements of individual users. The system uses a digitized dental mold for configuration and generation of the mouthpiece to create a replica of the jaw of users.

Universal piezo-magneto ultrasonic systems and methods
An ultrasonic unit manufacturing system and process are based on a universal ultrasonic generator unit that operates interchangeably with either one of piezoelectric and magnetostrictive ultrasonic devices, and optionally as well as with either on-off or power level control footswitches. The ultrasonic units use a generator unit having a detector that determines whether the connected device is piezoelectric or magnetostrictive, and activates the generator for the appropriate piezoelectric or magnetostrictive operating mode. The ultrasonic units so made and methods of using them are also disclosed.
