Description

Dental gum massage device

The invention relates to a massage device; in particular to an oral gum massage device which is arranged in the oral cavity and can perform vibration massage on the upper and lower jaws.

With the improvement of daily living standards and knowledge standards, modern people pay more and more attention to body health, from head to toe, from the inside out, and oral health is no exception. Therefore, many teeth cleaning and care products are derived. And in subtle interpersonal relationships, oral hygiene plays one of the most critical factors.

For oral hygiene habits, the most basic is to master the correct method of brushing. After eating, brushing can effectively prevent food residues from getting stuck in the teeth and bacteria, and at the same time scrape the tongue to keep the mouth in the best. State, however, because modern people's life is fast and busy, it is inconvenient to brush their teeth after each meal, and it is not convenient to carry them with them. Therefore, dental floss and dental floss sticks gradually replace the dental appliances used by people after eating.

However, in addition to cavities in oral diseases, periodontal disease is also a common oral disease in adults, which not only affects the health of the gums, but also causes the gums to shrink in severe cases. Most people use only toothbrushes or electric toothbrushes to clean their teeth, while ignoring them. For the important steps of proper massage and stimulation for the gums, the dentist recommends that you can gently press the gums at home with a simple method, or buy a special function toothbrush to stimulate the gums, which can make the gums healthier and reduce the occurrence of periodontal disease. If the gums are slightly inflamed, it will also help the gums recover.

The method of gingival massage can be divided into pressing the gums one by one with a toothbrush, rinsing the gums with a water column, or massaging the gums with a finger. However, during the process, when the toothbrush of the toothbrush selected by the user is too hard, the gums will be bleeding, and the water column will be washed. It is easy to get wet in the environment and wet clothes, and if the user directly massages the teeth with unclean fingers, there will be doubts about poor hygiene, so the existing gum massage method still needs to be improved.

Referring to Fig. 1, a new type of M316728 "gum massage device" of the Republic of China, the patent discloses a gum massage device for health oral use, the gum massage device comprising a massage piece 1 in an arc shape The handle portion 2 on one side of the massage piece 1 has a plurality of massage particles 3 disposed along the inner edge of the massage piece 1, and a vibration device 4 connected to the handle portion 2.

However, in the actual implementation of the conventional gum massage device, the following disadvantages still occur:

First, increase the chance of gums being massaged

It is conventional to use the vibration device 4 to generate vibration, and then transmit the vibration force to the massage piece 1 through the massage piece 1. However, the vibration generated by the vibration device 4 needs to be connected to the massage piece 1 first. The handle 2 is further transmitted by the handle 2 to the massage piece 1, so that the vibration force is dispersed by the handle 2, and the gums cannot be massaged.

Second, can not massage the gums locally

It is conventional to use the massage particles 3 disposed on the inner edge of the massage piece 1 to directly contact the upper and lower rows of gums, and then generate vibration by the vibration device 4, and conduct the vibration to the massage piece 1, so that when the user is on the upper row When there is a wound in the gums, it is impossible to massage only the lower row of gums, but the gum massage device loses its original function, and the convenience of use cannot be improved.

Third, poor applicability

The conventional massage granule 3 has a semi-spherical shape or a semi-circular shape, and the overall massage granule 3 is too large to be used by a child or a petite woman, so its applicability is not good.

Fourth, lack of functionality

As modern people pay attention to practical and diversified life, sometimes it is no longer just a single functional requirement for a single product, but a single product that requires two or more types of use, a conventional gum massage device. Providing only a single functional design for massaging the gums, of course, does not meet the development needs of the market.
