A first work tool arm is rotatably attached to a frame or reference structure, a second work tool arm rotatably attached to the first work tool arm, and a work tool attached to an end of the second work tool arm. An actuator and a spring are each rotatably attached to the second work tool arm and configured such that separate movement of the first work tool arm relative to the frame or reference structure and movement of the second work tool arm and work tool relative to the first work tool arm are achieved with actuation of the actuator.

A brush has a brush head having a main body and bristles extending therefrom, with the main body having a cylindrical shaft with a rounded cylindrical circumference. Semispherical bodies having bristles extending therefrom are adapted to be removably secured to axially opposite ends of the main body. These bristles radially extend 360 around both the cylindrical circumference of the main body and each semispherical body. A handle for the brush and an adapter for coupling the brush to a handle, are also provided.

Powered toothbrush systems that provide improved bristle posi-tioning and bristle contact with tooth surfaces that reduce the time and effort re-quired for effective brushing. Some embodiments use alternating or oscillating pneumatic pressure and suction to move a toothbrush head. Various configuration of the brush head provide different areas of coverage ranging from individual tooth to quarter mouth (U-cross section), to half (U-cross section or H-cross section) or whole mouth (U-cross section or H-cross section) coverage. Some embodiments include flexible fingers and/or bladders to keep the bristle tips properly engaged with the teeth and gums, providing bristle contact over a wide variety of malocclusion. The shape of the brush heads adapts to conform closely to the shape of the user's dental tray and to any malocclusion that may be present. The powered toothbrush automatically generates motion of the brush head that simulates the Modified Bass Method of brushing.

The present invention relates to a toothbrush with a handle, at least one cleaning zone and at least one deformable element, where the deformable element has a first flexible arm arranged relatively towards the cleaning zone and a second flexible arm arranged relatively away from the cleaning zone. The deformable element can move from a resting position in which the first arm is substantially flat and aligned to the handle, to a cleaning position in which the first arm and the cleaning zone adopt a curvature of a surface of a dentition, where the arms form a wedge being connected together at one end of the deformable element and distanced from each other at the other end of the deformable element. The first and second arms are linked by at least two bridges which are tiltable with respect to the first and second arms when pressure is applied to the cleaning zone, wherein the arms and bridges enclose a void space.
