<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an auxiliary tool for toothbrushing, facilitating toothbrushing of a baby, whereas although a mouth opener exists since it is difficult to widely open the mouth of the baby, who generally dislikes toothbrushing, the baby stops to open even if he/she opens the mouth, and it is difficult to sufficiently and perfectly brush back teeth thereof, the mouth opener is not suitable as the toothbrushing auxiliary tool since it is for medical use or is not easy to use. <P>SOLUTION: The toothbrushing auxiliary tool, a substantially semicircular chewing portion made of a soft material such as silicon resin is provided at the leading end of a bar, a flat elliptic grip portion having corrugated irregularities on the surface is provided at the terminal end thereof, and the bar is curved at an angle of 90° at the middle between the chewing portion and the grip portion. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT

Description

本発明は、乳幼児の歯磨きを効率良く行うための補助具に関するものである。 The present invention relates to an auxiliary tool for efficiently brushing an infant's teeth.

乳幼児の多くは歯磨きを嫌がるため、玩具であやしたり、腕を押さえたりしながら、悪戦苦闘して歯磨きを行っているが、口を大きく開けなかったり、開いたとしても永続しないため、奥歯等は充分に磨き切れないことが多い。開口器具としては、特許文献１、特許文献２、特許文献３、特許文献４、特許文献５、特許文献６及び特許文献７が知られている。 Many infants dislike brushing their teeth, so they do their best to brush their teeth while holding their arms and holding their arms. Often not fully polished. As an opening instrument, Patent Literature 1, Patent Literature 2, Patent Literature 3, Patent Literature 4, Patent Literature 5, Patent Literature 6 and Patent Literature 7 are known.

乳幼児は全般的に歯磨きが嫌いで、口を大きく開けさせることが難しい。また、口を開いたとしても永続せず、奥歯の隅々まで充分に磨くことが難しい。開口器具は存在しているが、医療器具であったり、使用方法が簡便でなかったりして、乳幼児のための歯磨きの補助具としては適していなかった。本発明は、以上の問題点を解決するものである。 Infants generally dislike brushing their teeth, making it difficult to open their mouths. Moreover, even if the mouth is opened, it does not last and it is difficult to polish the back teeth thoroughly. Although an opening device exists, it is not suitable as a brushing aid for infants because it is a medical device or is not easy to use. The present invention solves the above problems.

棒の先端部には、シリコン樹脂等の柔軟な素材による略半円形状の歯噛み部を設け、末端部には平たくて表面に波型の凹凸のある楕円形状の握り部を設けていて、棒は歯噛み部と握り部との間の中間部で９０度の角度に曲がっている。
以上の構成よりなる歯磨き補助具である。The tip of the rod is provided with a substantially semicircular tooth-chipping portion made of a flexible material such as silicone resin, and the end is provided with an elliptical grip portion that is flat and has corrugated irregularities on the surface. Is bent at an angle of 90 degrees at an intermediate portion between the tooth biting portion and the grip portion.
It is a toothpaste auxiliary tool having the above-described configuration.

悪戦苦闘していた乳幼児の歯磨きが、奥歯の隅々まで容易に磨き切ることができる。
本発明は、家庭内だけでなく、歯科医による乳幼児への歯の治療のときにも有効である。Infants who have been struggling hard can brush their teeth back and forth easily.
The present invention is effective not only at home, but also at the time of dental treatment for infants by dentists.

以下、本発明の実施の形態を説明する。
（イ）ポリプロピレン等の素材の棒（１）の先端部に、シリコン樹脂等の柔軟な素材の略半円形状の歯噛み部（２）を設ける。
（ロ）末端部には、平たくて表面に波型の凹凸のある楕円形状の握り部（３）を設ける。
（ハ）棒（１）は、歯噛み部（２）と握り部（３）との間の中間部（４）で９０度の角度に曲がっている。
本発明は、以上のような構造である。
本発明を使用するときは、片手に歯ブラシ、片手に本発明品を握り部（３）が外側に向くようにして持つ。乳幼児を楽な体勢（できれば仰向け）にさせる。乳幼児が口を開けたときに歯噛み部（２）を口腔内に挿入し、握り部（３）が外側に向いた側の歯に歯噛み部（２）をくわえさせる。乳幼児はシリコン樹脂等の噛み心地が良いので、噛んだままの状態でいる。その間に、くわえている歯側と反対側の歯磨きを行う。続いて、握り部（３）を反対側の外側に移行してくわえさせ、今度は磨き終わっていない側の歯磨きを行う。こうして乳幼児の歯磨きを容易に行うことができる。Embodiments of the present invention will be described below.
(A) A substantially semicircular tooth biting portion (2) made of a flexible material such as silicon resin is provided at the tip of a rod (1) made of polypropylene or the like.
(B) An elliptical grip (3) having a flat surface and corrugated irregularities is provided at the end.
(C) The rod (1) is bent at an angle of 90 degrees at an intermediate portion (4) between the tooth biting portion (2) and the grip portion (3).
The present invention has the above structure.
When using the present invention, hold the toothbrush in one hand and the product of the present invention in one hand so that the grip portion (3) faces outward. Make the infant in a comfortable position (preferably on his back). When the infant opens his mouth, the tooth biting portion (2) is inserted into the oral cavity, and the tooth biting portion (2) is added to the tooth on the side where the grip portion (3) faces outward. Infants have good chewing feeling such as silicone resin, so they remain chewed. In the meantime, brush the teeth on the opposite side of the tooth. Subsequently, the grip portion (3) is shifted to the outside on the opposite side, and this time, the brushing of the side that has not been finished is performed. In this way, infants can easily brush their teeth.
