Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] Industrial applications The present invention relates to a toothpaste.

Prior Art and its Problems Conventional toothbrushes have been proposed in which a hard plastic pedestal is integrally attached to the head of an elastic handle rod, and a bristle-like brush is implanted on the pedestal surface (for example, in actual practice). (See Publication No. 53-13538).
Although this toothbrush having a conventional structure can improve the feeling of use due to the elasticity of the handle, it is still unsatisfactory in the following respects. In other words, when brushing the uneven parts of the teeth, it is necessary to deform the bristle-like brush surface along the uneven parts of the teeth, but if the base is hard like the conventional product,
Since the pedestal cannot be expected to deform at all, the bristle brush must be deformed by itself along the unevenness of the teeth, which requires pressing the brush surface quite strongly against the teeth, which may cause damage to the gums. give rise to sex.

The present invention has been made with the aim of eliminating these conventional problems.

Means for Solving the Problems The present invention relates to a dentifrice material characterized in that a bristle brush is embedded on the surface of an elastic base material.

In the present invention, the elastic base material may be made of any material having elasticity such as natural rubber, synthetic rubber, sponge, etc., and these materials may be used alone or in combination. This base material may be imparted with bactericidal properties by mixing a bactericidal agent with a high degree of sterilization or by treating it with antibacterial metal ions or the like. Further, dental silicone or the like may be added to impart abrasive properties to the base material.

The bristle brush implanted on the surface of the base material may be made of various known materials used for tooth brushing and the like. The hair-like brushes may be planted uniformly and evenly over the entire surface of the base material, or they may be planted dispersedly in each block.

Effects According to the toothpaste of the present invention, the bristle brush is implanted on the surface of the base material having elasticity, so the base material functions as a cushion due to its elasticity, improving the feeling of use and improving the toothpaste. When polishing uneven parts of the bristle brush, the surface of the bristle brush easily deforms along the uneven parts of the teeth due to the cooperation between the elasticity of the base material and the elasticity of the bristle brush itself. By simply pressing it lightly against the teeth, you can cleanly and evenly brush all the uneven parts of your teeth without worrying about damaging your gums.

Embodiments Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described based on the accompanying drawings.

According to an embodiment of the present invention shown in FIG.
A hair-like brush 2 is implanted on the entire upper surface of an elastic base material 1, and the lower surface of this base material 1 is fixed to the tip of a handle 3. The toothpaste material shown in FIG. 1 has an elastic base material 1.
Other than the presence of a toothbrush, there is no substantial difference from a regular toothbrush.

As shown in FIG.
When pressed against the uneven part of. Due to the pressing pressure, the base material 1 deforms along the unevenness of the tooth a against its own elasticity, so the bristle brush 2 surface deforms along the unevenness of the tooth a due to its own elasticity. Can be easily deformed. Therefore, by simply lightly pressing the two surfaces of the bristle brush against the uneven portions of the teeth a, the uneven portions of the teeth a can be thoroughly polished to every corner, and since it is only necessary to press lightly, there is no risk of damaging the gums.

FIG. 3 shows another embodiment of the present invention, in which the bristle brushes 2 are distributed in blocks, and instead of the handle 3, fingers are placed on the bottom surface of the base material 1. There is no substantial difference from the one shown in FIG. 1 except that a finger insertion part 3-1 for insertion is provided. According to this embodiment, the toothpaste material is inserted into the finger insertion portion 3-
1, the toothbrushing operation can be performed by directly attaching it to the fingertip, so the force of the fingertip is directly transmitted to the teeth, and the toothbrushing operation can be performed efficiently while delicately adjusting the pressing force.

FIG. 4 shows still another embodiment of the present invention, which is substantially different from the embodiment shown in FIG. There's nowhere to go. According to this embodiment, since one surface of the elastic base material comes into contact with the gums when brushing teeth, a pine surge effect can be obtained. Furthermore, even if you press against the gums, the elastic base material 1 will only hit hard, and the bristle brush 2 will
The touch is gentle, so you won't hurt your gums.

5 and 6 show still another embodiment of the present invention, which is substantially different from the embodiment shown in FIG. 4 except that the elastic base material 1 has a cylindrical shape. do not have.
In this example, since the base material 1 has a cylindrical shape,
It is convenient because the bristle brush 2 can be installed on the entire circumferential surface and the teeth can be brushed using the entire circumferential surface.

FIG. 7 shows still another embodiment of the present invention, in which the handle 3
4, except that a liquid agent 4 is filled in the gripping portion of and a fixed amount of the liquid agent can be supplied to the base material 1 through the nozzle 3-3 by pressing the pressing portion 3-2. There is no substantial difference from the embodiment described above. In this embodiment, the base material 1 is composed of a liquid-permeable sponge, and the liquid agent 4 is applied to the nozzle 3-3 and the base material 1 by the pressing operation of the pressing part 3-2.
This is convenient because it can be supplied to the bristle brush 2 through the bristle brush 2.

Effects According to the present invention, due to the cushioning properties of the elastic base material, the bristle-like brush surface can be easily deformed along the uneven parts of the teeth, and the uneven parts of the teeth can be easily deformed to every corner without the risk of damaging the gums. It has the feature of being able to be polished to a fine finish.

[Brief explanation of the drawing]

Figure 1 is a side view showing one embodiment of the present invention;
The figure is a side view showing how the teeth are pressed against the uneven portion, and FIGS. 3, 4, 5-6, and 7 are sectional views showing various embodiments of the present invention. In the figure, 1 is an elastic base material, 2 is a hair-like brush, and 3 is a handle.
