Description

La présente invention concerne un dispositif pour remédier aux problèmes liés à l'infection bactérienne des gencives, ainsi qu'à l'aggravation d'une pathologie.The present invention relates to a device for remedying the problems associated with bacterial infection of the gums, as well as the aggravation of a pathology.

Notre dispositif selon l'invention évite la plaque dentaire et par voie de conséquence le tartre porteur d'un nombre important de cellules microbiennes qui au fur et à mesure de leur lyse, libèrent ensymes et toxines.Our device according to the invention avoids dental plaque and consequently tartar carrying a large number of microbial cells which, as and when they are lysed, release enzymes and toxins.

Devant les irrégularités des surfaces et de leurs concréo5 qui facilitent l'adhérence de la plaque et compliquent les problèmes d'hygiène, il nous apparait que notre dispositif selon l'invention résoud ces problèmes de façon simple et pratique, tout en évitant l'infection.Faced with the irregularities of the surfaces and their concré5 which facilitate the adhesion of the plate and complicate the hygiene problems, it appears to us that our device according to the invention solves these problems in a simple and practical manner, while avoiding infection. .

Le dispositif selon l'invention a pour but de faciliter l'opération qui consiste à toute prévention de type hygiène bucco-dentaire.The purpose of the device according to the invention is to facilitate the operation which consists in any prevention of the oral hygiene type.

Dans le domaine public, il existe nombre de solutions dentaires tendant à éliminer les bactéries à l'origine de la plaque dentaire et à favoriser la prévention des caries, ces solutions qui sont utilisées soit après le brossage soit après un détartrage sont manipulées en bouche avec l'aide de coton plus ou moins stérilisé.In the public domain, there are a number of dental solutions tending to eliminate the bacteria which cause dental plaque and to promote the prevention of cavities, these solutions which are used either after brushing or after descaling are handled in the mouth with using more or less sterilized cotton.

Le dispositif selon l'invention, outre le brossage à l'aide du petit goupillon (2), remédie à l'étalement des solutions dentaires par la mini-pipette (3) située sur l'embout opposé, du dispositif selon l'invention.The device according to the invention, in addition to brushing using the small brush (2), remedies the spreading of dental solutions by the mini-pipette (3) located on the opposite tip, of the device according to the invention .

Cette mini-pipette, soigne les endroits bien précis des tissus parondontaux et assurent le nettoyage du sillon gingivo-dentaire où toute négligence peut créer un éventail de la flore buccale et coloniser certaines zones en entrainant une réaction traumatique.This mini-pipette treats very specific areas of the periodontal tissues and ensures the cleaning of the gingival-dental groove where negligence can create a range of oral flora and colonize certain areas causing a traumatic reaction.

Les expérimentations ont montré que la plaque dentaire est suffisamment homogène et adhérente pour résister à une simple action de lavage avec une brosse à dent. C'est donc par friction mécanique que ladite plaque peut tre éliminée.Experiments have shown that dental plaque is sufficiently homogeneous and adherent to withstand a simple action of washing with a toothbrush. It is therefore by mechanical friction that said plate can be removed.

C'est la raison pour laquelle le dispositif selon notre invention s'avère efficace. De suite après avoir effectué le nettoyage avec le petit goupillon (2), selon notre dispositif relatif à l'invention, il suffit de retourner ledit dispositif et présenter l'embout opposé dans le flacon de la solution dentaire, de presser ensuite la mini-pipette (3) entre ses doigts pour aspirer quelques gouttes de cette solution, bain de bouche, anti-bactérienne. This is the reason why the device according to our invention proves to be effective. Immediately after carrying out the cleaning with the small bottle brush (2), according to our device relating to the invention, it suffices to invert said device and present the opposite tip in the bottle of dental solution, then to press the mini pipette (3) between his fingers to aspirate a few drops of this solution, mouthwash, anti-bacterial.

Dés lors, tranquillement, l'embout de la mini-pipette est dirigé sur le sillon gingival à traiter, et par une simple pression de ses doigts sur cette mini-pipette, le liquide anti-bactérien est déposé, sans débordement sur les autres zones saines.Therefore, quietly, the tip of the mini-pipette is directed on the gingival groove to be treated, and by a simple pressure of his fingers on this mini-pipette, the anti-bacterial liquid is deposited, without overflowing on the other areas healthy.

Particulièrement adapté pour les prothèses en bouche, notre dispositif selon l'invention peut intervenir sur toute gencive, dans le cadre de la prévention et l'hygiène buccodentaire en général.Particularly suitable for prostheses in the mouth, our device according to the invention can intervene on any gum, in the context of prevention and oral hygiene in general.

Notre recherche au niveau des antériorités ne laisse pas apparaitre un dispositif selon le notre. Nous avons trouvé des pipettes de tous types, des goupillons de tous types mais aucune antériorité ne mentionnant un dispositif combinant en un seul élément le brossage d'un sillon gingival et l'application d'une solution anti-bactérienne par minipipette.Our research at the level of prior art does not reveal a device according to ours. We found pipettes of all types, bottle brushes of all types but no prior art mentioning a device combining in one element the brushing of a gingival groove and the application of an anti-bacterial solution by minipipette.

Notre dispositif selon l'invention permet une utilisation à usage unique, des soins complémentaires immédiats et une hygiène complète.Our device according to the invention allows single-use use, immediate complementary care and complete hygiene.

Ainsi le petit goupillon (2) ayant assuré sa fonction, la mini-pipette (3) ayant assurée la sienne, l'élément est jeté. Les matériaux utilisés pour le petit goupillon sont du domaine public ainsi que la mini-pipette qui sera en tout état de cause suffisamment souple pour eviter un effort au niveau des doigts des personnes âgées souffrant d'arthrose, par exemple.Thus the small bottle brush (2) having ensured its function, the mini-pipette (3) having ensured its own, the element is discarded. The materials used for the small bottle brush are in the public domain as well as the mini-pipette which will in any case be flexible enough to avoid strain on the fingers of elderly people suffering from osteoarthritis, for example.

Les poils du petit goupillon sont de rigidité plus ou moins prononcée de mme que les longueurs des mini-pipettes. The bristles of the small bottle brush are more or less pronounced in rigidity, as are the lengths of the mini-pipettes.

Le petit goupillon peut tre adapté avec un amortisseur au niveau d'une chambre de séparation (5) de l'élément, dans les mmes matériaux que l'élément, en matière plastique ou dérivés sous la forme d'une perle ou en ressort inoxidable.The small bottle brush can be adapted with a shock absorber at the level of a separation chamber (5) of the element, in the same materials as the element, in plastic material or derivatives in the form of a pearl or in a stainless spring. .

Le dispositif selon l'invention dans le mme but de dispo nibilité immédiate d'application anti-bactérienne, peut associer un petit-goupillon (6) avec mini-pipette (7) et une ampoule auto-cassante remplie d'un liquide antiseptique ou d'une solution antibactérienne (8). The device according to the invention for the same purpose of immediate availability of anti-bacterial application, can combine a small bottle brush (6) with mini-pipette (7) and a self-breaking ampoule filled with an antiseptic liquid or an antibacterial solution (8).

En effectuant une pression sur ladite ampoule (8) le liquide ainsi libéré vient imprégner le mini-goupillon désormais prt pour le nettoyage des espaces inter-dentaires.By pressing on said bulb (8), the liquid thus released impregnates the mini-bottle brush now ready for cleaning the inter-dental spaces.

L'avantage de ces deux dispositifs selon l'invention c'est qu'ils ne limitent pas le nettoyage uniquement aux zones d'accès par ledit mini-goupillon mais également au niveau des sillons gingivaux-dentaires.The advantage of these two devices according to the invention is that they do not limit cleaning only to the areas of access by said mini-brush but also at the level of the gingival-dental grooves.

Le dispositif selon l'invention peut se présenter sous la forme d'un combiné de tetes interchangeables et d'une pipette selon le soin que l'on désire ; ces ttes peuvent avoir l'aspect d'un goupillon de forme conique ou droite d'une consistance souple, médium ou dure, avoir l'aspect d'une fourchette associée à un fil dentaire, avoir l'aspect d'une petite gomme chargéed'une poudre diamantée affectée au gommage de l'état de surface des dents, avoir un embout en forme de bague clipsée surmontée d'une petite bande abrasive ou gomme à polir et avoir également un pinceau clipsé de petite taille destiné au dépôt d'un produit micro-film de protection, les variétés exposées de ces ttes interchangeables sont jetables pour une hygiène parfaite, et présentéesen sachets individuels, stérilisées. The device according to the invention can be in the form of a combination of interchangeable heads and a pipette according to the care that is desired; these heads may have the appearance of a conical or straight bottle brush of a flexible, medium or hard consistency, have the appearance of a fork associated with dental floss, have the appearance of a small charged gum '' a diamond powder assigned to the gumming of the surface condition of the teeth, to have a clipped ring-shaped tip surmounted by a small abrasive strip or polishing gum and also to have a small clipped brush intended for depositing a micro-protective film product, the exposed varieties of these interchangeable heads are disposable for perfect hygiene, and presented in individual, sterilized sachets.
