A system for classifying the usage of a handheld consumer device having a sensor and an analyzer. The sensor determines usage data at successive time instants and provides a temporally successive sequence of usage data during a usage session. The analyzer classifies the usage of the device with respect to at least one set usage classes and assembles a temporally successive sequence of input tuples of usage data relating to a predetermined time period of the usage session, each of the input tuples having at least one element representing the usage data at the respective time instant and for inputting the sequence of input tuples into at least one artificial neural network arranged to output at least one output tuple comprising a number of elements in accordance with the number of usage classes, each element of the output tuple representing a prediction value that the usage of the consumer device at the given time instant relates to a respective usage class.

A complete system for oral care and hygiene is revealed, easy portability, hygienically safe and comfortable to use, which facilitates the availability of a toothbrush, toothpaste and dental floss, all included in a coupled body, and allows to be carried with security and hygiene in wallets, clothing, and others; optimizing access at any time to a complete system for the care and cleaning of teeth and gums.

A dispensing toothbrush assembly includes a handle that has a toothpaste well integrated therein. A toothpaste tube is insertable into the toothpaste well in the handle and the toothpaste tube contains a toothpaste. A brush head is removably attachable to the handle and the brush head is in fluid communication with the toothpaste tube when the brush head is removably attached to the handle. The brush head has a conduit integrated therein for receiving the toothpaste contained in the toothpaste tube. A pump is movably coupled to the handle and the pump compresses the toothpaste tube when the pump is manipulated for urging the toothpaste outwardly from the toothpaste tube and into the conduit. A spool of dental floss is removably attachable to the handle for dispensing dental floss outwardly therefrom. A pick is coupled to and extends away from the spool of dental floss.

The invention is directed to a manual toothbrush that includes an interior compartment housing an amount of dental floss. The toothbrush comprises a handle defined by an interior compartment. A portion of dental floss is housed within the interior compartment. The handle includes a cap that allows access to the dental floss housed within the interior compartment. The handle can include one or more finger or thumb rests that provide comfort to the user while brushing their teeth and/or accessing the interior compartment. The toothbrush also comprises an angled brush head defined by a plurality of bristles. Advantageously, the toothbrush allows for brushing and flossing using one compact and convenient device.

Flossers are designed to simplify flossing with braces including facilitating the insertion of floss into and the maneuvering of the floss within the embrasure spaces. The flossers can include an inner prong and an outer prong between which a length of floss extends. The outer prong can be configured to insert between the teeth and the wire of the braces while the inner prong is positioned inside the teeth. While positioned between the wire and the teeth, the outer prong can be maneuvered to thereby floss the embrasure spaces.

The present invention relates to an oral care device. The oral care device features a toothbrush head cover to protect the bristles of a toothbrush and an integrated dental floss storage and dispenser. The oral care device can also come with a paired toothbrush. The floss storage and dispenser allows the user to pull and cut a desired length of dental floss for flossing their teeth while the toothbrush head is securely placed in the toothbrush head cover. The dental floss can be replaced when required and the case can have manual or battery operated lids to access the toothbrush and the floss. The case protects the toothbrush bristles from dirt and debris while also providing dental floss to the user.

An oral hygiene instrument includes a handle for gripping by a user and a dental floss assembly coupled with the handle. The dental floss assembly includes a support frame and a length of dental floss attached to the support frame for flossing between teeth. The support frame is selectively rotatable relative to the handle around an axis of rotation.

A dispensing toothbrush assembly includes a handle that has a toothpaste well integrated therein. A toothpaste tube is insertable into the toothpaste well in the handle and the toothpaste tube contains a toothpaste. A brush head is removably attachable to the handle and the brush head is in fluid communication with the toothpaste tube when the brush head is removably attached to the handle. The brush head has a conduit integrated therein for receiving the toothpaste contained in the toothpaste tube. A pump is movably coupled to the handle and the pump compresses the toothpaste tube when the pump is manipulated for urging the toothpaste outwardly from the toothpaste tube and into the conduit. A spool of dental floss is removably attachable to the handle for dispensing dental floss outwardly therefrom. A pick is coupled to and extends away from the spool of dental floss.

A three-in-one tooth-cleaning device structured as a toothpick, an interdental brush, and a floss pick includes a main body and an interdental elastic-bristle portion. The main body is integrally formed of a first plasticized material by injection molding and is structured as a floss pick at one end and as a toothpick at the opposite second end. The interdental elastic-bristle portion is integrally formed by injection molding a second plasticized material over the periphery of the main body in a section adjacent to the second end of the main body and forms a plurality of bristles. The second plasticized material has a lower hardness than the first plasticized material. The three-in-one tooth-cleaning device can be carried around to perform diversified, thorough, and effective removing operations on the dental plaque or food debris on and/or between teeth anytime and anywhere to prevent dental caries (especially interdental caries) and periodontal disease.

The disclosure relates generally to products for dental hygiene. In one embodiment, a toothbrush includes a toothbrush head with toothbrush bristles, a toothbrush handle that is connected to the toothbrush head, and a dental floss dispensing system. The dental floss dispensing system is connected to the toothbrush handle. In other embodiments, a dental floss dispensing system is connected to either a toothpaste tube body or a toothpaste cap of a toothpaste tube.
