ORAL DEVICE
An oral care device comprising: a hollow shaft having a suction and a cleaning portion wherein the suction and the cleaning portion are fluidically connected; a suction activator provided to the shaft; a material supply channel comprising at least one material supply opening, wherein the material supply opening is configured to reversibly receive a pod; and at least one opening at the cleaning portion fluidically connected to a suction. In addition, there is provided a pod configured to be attached to an oral care device as disclosed above, the pod comprising a body configured to contain a material for treating an oral cavity, a neck, and a seal separating the body from the neck. A kit comprising the oral care device and a plurality of pods, a method for using the same, and additional embodiments of the present subject matter, are disclosed herein.
ORAL CARE SYSTEMS
An oral care system includes a body portion and an attachment. The body portion includes a body, a body opening, and a funnel. The body extends from a first body end to a second body end. The body opening is proximate the first body end. The body opening extends into the body portion to define an inner cavity. The funnel is proximate the first body end such that the funnel is in fluid communication with the body opening. The attachment extends from a first attachment end to a second attachment end, the attachment being selectively coupled to the body portion. The attachment includes a neck, a brush, and a connector. The neck extends between the first attachment end and the second attachment end. The brush is coupled to the neck proximate the second attachment end. The connector is proximate the first attachment end.
ANTI-INFECTION SURGICAL DEVICE AND METHOD FOR BIOFILM AGITATION
An agitation device that uses a variety of mechanical, acoustic, electrical, and chemical media in order to effectively remove biofilm from an infected implant. The brush head embodiments include numerous shapes and sizes tailored for specific applications. Irrigation, suction, drug delivery and capture capabilities are also provided.
Surgical cleaning device with adapter
A device for the surgical cleaning of infected implants, the device containing a brush head containing a bristle region having a plurality of bristles; a supply element configured to transport a cleaning liquid to the brush head; a discharge element configured to remove liquid from the brush head; and a connecting element configured to releasably connect the supply element and the discharge element to an external lavage device.
Individual-Patient One-Day Oral Care Kit
An individual-patient one-day oral care kit comprises a housing and a plurality of sealed trays disposed within the housing. Each of the sealed trays contains oral hygiene components. By one approach at least one of the sealed trays contains an oral hygiene component comprising a toothbrush that is unique to that particular tray. By one approach all of the sealed trays contain at least one same oral hygiene component. By one approach each of the sealed trays is configured to serve a patient's oral hygiene compliance requirements in accordance with an event driven schedule during a single day.
ORAL CARE DEVICE FOR INTUBATED PATIENTS
Example embodiments of the present general inventive concept provide an oral care device including a handle having a proximal end and a distal end, a suction connector provided at the proximal end of the handle and configured to be coupled to a suction apparatus, a plurality of bristles provided proximate the distal end of the handle and configured in a spiral pattern around a circumference of the distal end of the handle, and one or more suction ports provided proximate the distal end of the handle.
BROOM-STYLE CLEANING APPLIANCE
There is described herein a broom-style cleaning appliance with built in vacuum assembly that can be activated via an elongate nozzle member located adjacent a bundle of cleaning bristles to eliminate the need for a dustpan. Once the vacuum module is activated the debris is collected in a collection chamber housed above or adjacent to the cleaning bristles or elements.
UNIVERSAL ORAL CARE TOOL
A device for providing oral care includes at least one lumen fluidly coupled to a brush head. The lumen is adapted to suction fluid via an aperture disposed within the brush head. The brush head may be provided an oral cleaning fluid to facilitate cleaning of oral anatomy. The oral cleaning fluid may be provided within a cup provided within a containment assembly coupled to the oral care tool. Alternatively, or in addition, the cleaning fluid may be provided via fluid reservoir fluidly coupled to the oral care tool. The brush head comprises a bristles section and a foam section.
Pet Hair Comb and Hair Removing Method Thereof
A pet hair comb includes an installation shell body having an air duct, a grooming assembly, and a hair scraping assembly, wherein a relative movement between the hair scraping assembly and the grooming assembly allows the hair scraping assembly to scrape down the pet hair on the grooming assembly, wherein the pet hair comb has an air pressure adjusting port which is configured to be switched between an unblocked sate and a blocked state when the air duct is in a negative pressure state for sucking the pet hair, so as to adjust an air pressure in the air duct for facilitating the removal of the pet hair on the comb.
SYSTEM, METHOD AND KIT FOR ORAL CARE
A kit comprising a base module, a plurality of rodded oral care devices, a hanger, a support element that hangs from the hanger, and a non-electronic multi-input multi-display counter is disclosed herein. The support element for supporting each rodded oral care device of the plurality of devices. Embodiments relate to fluid loading/unloading mechanism involving elements of the base module. The non-electronic multi-input multi-display counter may be used to track different types of oral care operations, e.g. at least some of which are performed using the base module and/or a rodded oral care device. Related methods are disclosed.
