Abstract: A tooth cleaning device comprising a handle, and a pad coupled to the handle, wherein the pad has a front face, a back face and a plurality of side walls. There are a plurality of different areas disposed on the front face of the pad comprising a first area comprising a first set of protrusions, in a substantially semi-spherical shape, and a second area comprising a second set of protrusions in a substantially conical shape. There is also a third area of protrusions formed as a substantially conical shape, and a fourth area of protrusions formed as a substantially semi-spherical shape. The device can be formed as a pad which collapses voluntarily under pressure. The pad can be made from any suitable material such as any type of rubber or plastic.

Abstract: A process for making an untempered martensite-free welded steel tubular is disclosed. The process includes rapid quenching of the steel tubular without formation of untempered martensite, at rates up to about 1600° F./second. There is no post-weld seam annealing process required. Also a welded steel tubular made in accordance with the disclosed process is described.

Abstract: An oral cleaning device having two portions, wherein the first portion is to be handled by the user, and the second portion, having a terry cloth sleeve affixed thereto, is inserted into the mouth for cleaning the vestibule and for removing plaque from teeth therein.

Abstract: A device for cleaning the vestibule of the mouth. The device includes a rounded tapered end having a bend or curve with respect to a longitudinal axis of the device.
