    Abstract: The device and method employ a pair of spaced jaws (286) which in use are straddled about a row of teeth, transverse thereof, and translated along the row opposite the inside and outside faces of the teeth. Cams (112), (114) enable the user to count on the device itself to provide the "dynamics" with which we commonly use a conventional "tooth brush" when we manipulate it in our mouths from a point thereoutside. Flexible arms (216) and slide (254) enable the user to program or predetermine the "grip" of the device, transverse of the row. A flossing adaptation (40) enables the user to clean the interstices between pairs of teeth.

    Abstract: The brush has sets of relatively reciprocably displaceable bristles which are straddled about a row of teeth, transverse thereof, and applied to the opposing faces of the teeth by means of a pair of paddle-headed tweezer-like rods which are semi-rigid and discrete from one another, but hingedly interconnected with one another so that they can be held in unison as a handle while being rotated in relation to one another about an axis extending substantially parallel to the mutually adjacent sides thereof. As they are applied to the faces of the teeth, the bristle may also be translated along the length of the row; and if so, the bristle may be equipped with a pair of picks, which are used to locate the gum lines of the teeth and steer the bristle while raking the gum lines themselves. Moreover, in such a case, the picks may have thin flanges extending relatively toward one another, to provide fillet-like gussets with which to stabilize the picks against splay when they are traced along the gum lines. The brush lends itself to being packaged and shelved in compact form, and if desired, as a disposable brush, that is, as one to be put to use a time or two and then thrown away. For example, it can be fabricated as a thin, flat item which has a cross hinge so that it can be reentrantly folded onto itself, longitudinally thereof, for compactness.

    Abstract translation: 刷子具有一组相对可往复移位的刷毛,它们跨过一排齿横向并且通过一对桨形的镊子状杆施加到牙齿的相对面上,这些是半刚性和离散的 彼此铰接地互连,使得它们可以作为手柄一致地保持,同时围绕基本上平行于其相互相邻的侧面延伸的轴线相对于彼此旋转。 当它们施加到牙齿的表面时,刷毛也可以沿着行的长度平移; 如果是这样的话,刷毛可以配备一对拾取物,这些拾取物用于定位牙齿的牙龈线,并且在揉搓牙龈线的同时引导刷毛。 此外,在这种情况下,拾取物可以具有相对于彼此延伸的薄凸缘,以提供圆角状的角撑板,以便当它们沿着牙龈线迹迹时稳定拾屑器以防止喷射。 刷子本身可以以紧凑的形式被包装和搁置,并且如果需要的话,作为一次性刷子,也就是说要被使用一两次然后被丢弃。 例如,它可以被制造成具有交叉铰链的薄而扁平的物品,使得其可以在其纵向方向上可重复地折叠到其上,以实现紧凑。
