  • Patent number: 4617694
    Abstract: A finger-mounted device for cleaning teeth having an improved teeth cleaning surface, pick means for cleaning between the teeth, a nonslip finger-engaging means, and means for providing a length of dental floss. The improved teeth cleaning surface consists of a plurality of concave surfaces joined along their raised edges, each of the concave surfaces being adapted to clean a complimentary shaped convex tooth surface and the raised edges being adapted to clean the tooth edges. The teeth cleaning surface is preferably formed by soft bristles. A pick means comprises a section of hard bristles disposed within the soft bristle area, the distal ends of the hard bristles being tapered to form a point which lies beneath the soft bristle surface, the pick being exposed for cleaning between teeth by applying a greater pressure than that required for brushing the teeth with the soft bristles.
