The present invention provides a holder and support structure or carrier structure for a mouthpiece of a teeth cleaning device which enables cleaning of a plurality of teeth, preferably all of the user's teeth at the same time, wherein the carrier structure comprises a mouth insert for the user's upper jaw and a mouth insert for the user's lower jaw; and a coupling section including two arms and a connecting section for the drive device, wherein the mouth inserts are each connected to an arm of the coupling section and the connecting section for the drive device is adapted so that it can be connected to a drive device via a fastener thereof, wherein the arms of the coupling section that are connected to the mouth inserts each include at least one spring section. The spring sections assure an even transfer of vibration transfer along the entire length of the mouth inserts. In one embodiment, the horizontal spring sections of the carrier structure allow it to be adjusted more precisely to the user's dentition.

Disclosed is a multi-functional visual electric toothbrush, including a main unit, an oral viewer, an interdental cleaning appliance and an electric toothbrush head. The oral viewer is connected to the main unit, the interdental cleaning appliance is connected to the front end of the oral viewer, and the electric toothbrush head is connected to a toothbrush driving mechanism. A circuit system and a control system of the main unit can not only transfer the energy of a power supply to the toothbrush driving mechanism, so as to drive the electric toothbrush head to work for large-area oral cleaning, but also connect a lighting system, an observation system and a switch of the oral viewer to control the oral viewer to work. The interdental cleaning appliance may be used cooperatively with the oral viewer to perform targeted cleaning on difficult-to-clean food debris in an oral cavity.

An electric toothbrush that detects plaque on the teeth, ensures accurate plaque detection, and performs cleaning of plaque. The electric toothbrush may include a body having a gripping part and a stem with a brush unit detachably coupled to the body. The electric toothbrush may include a light emitting element for emitting light onto the tooth and a light receiving element for receiving light that reflects off of the tooth. A controller may be included to determine an amount of plaque on the tooth based on the amount of reflected light detected. The electric toothbrush may also include a fluid dispensing system that dispenses fluid based on the amount of reflected light detected. In some aspects, the electric toothbrush may operate in multiple oscillation modes, and it may only dispense fluid in some of the modes but not all of the modes.

A brush of the present disclosure includes a head and a body. The head includes bristles extending in a first direction. The body includes an actuator configured to expand and contract in a second direction intersecting the first direction and a connection member configured to transmit vibration of the actuator to the head.

A personal care appliance (10) comprises a handle (12), an attachment (14), and a controller (16). The handle (12) includes an actuator (20) and drive shaft (22). The attachment (14) has a body (30) with a principal axis (32) extending between a proximal end and a distal end thereof, wherein the proximal end couples to the drive shaft. The attachment (14) further includes a mass-spring identifiable assembly (40) having at least one identifiable resonant frequency in response to a given excitation, wherein the at least one identifiable resonant frequency comprises a resonant frequency selected from at least two different resonant frequencies. The controller (16) is configured to control the attachment (14), via the actuator (20), over a predefined range of frequencies that includes the given excitation. The controller (16) is further configured, in at least a detection mode, to uniquely recognize the attachment (14) via detecting a presence of the at least one identifiable resonant frequency of the mass-spring identifiable assembly (40) of the attachment (14) in response to the given excitation.

An electric toothbrush having bristle driven pulsation includes a brush head having a bristle holder and bristle tufts attached to the bristle holder. The bristle tufts and corresponding bristles are disposed at a perpendicular and/or a non-perpendicular angle with respect to a mounting surface of the brush head. The electric toothbrush also includes an electric toothbrush handle removably attached to the brush head. The electric toothbrush handle includes a linear motor configured to drive the bristle holder via a gearing structure coupled to the linear motor and the bristle holder. The linear motor causes the bristle holder to rotate clockwise and counterclockwise at a rotation frequency which exceeds a rotation frequency threshold (e.g., 100 Hz, 120 Hz, etc.). The linear motor also causes the brush head to vibrate in a direction toward and away from a contact surface in synchronization with the rotation of the bristles.

A toothbrush, which can be operated by a child, having a built-in light source, and includes an operation button that controls a light emission mode of the light source. The light source can emit light in a multicolor light mode, switchably emitting light in at least three or more colors, and a monochromatic light mode, emitting light in a particular color selected from the at least three or more colors in a fixed manner.

A dental device tracking method including acquiring, using an imager of a dental device, at least a first image which includes an image of at least one user body portion outside of a user's oral cavity; identifying the at least one user body portion in the first image; and determining, using the at least the first image, a position of the dental device with respect to the at least one user body portion.

An abrasive facial buffer system consists of a tool head, a handle, a vibrating mechanism, a power source, and a control switch. The vibrating mechanism and the power source are positioned within the handle. The control switch is mounted onto the handle. The power source is electrically connected to the vibrating mechanism through the control switch thus powering the tool head that is operatively coupled with the vibrating mechanism. The tool head include a skin exfoliation head that is used to remove dead skin and a pair of brush heads that is preferably utilized to clean a set of teeth with dental braces.
