Abstract: A dental implant organizer case includes a housing with a plurality of compartments selectively arranged therein. Each compartment includes: a respective lid pivotally mounted to the housing to cover the compartment's cavity when closed; means for biasing the lid from the closed to the open position; means to releasably secure the lid in the closed position; means to releasably support dental implant containers within the compartment, in an upright position; and a respective tooth number marking to indicate the tooth intended for the implant containers therein. The selectively arranged compartments may form a semi-circular or an in-line arrangement. Two compartment levels may be utilized, with the lower compartments being accessible using a tray being slidable with respect to the housing. Two cases may be secured together to be pivotable between collapsed and extended positions, where the first and second cases store dental implant containers for left-hand and right-hand teeth, respectively.

Abstract: A sealing cap includes a cap unit, a knob and at least one guiding mechanism. The cap unit includes a first cap body formed with a through hole extending along an axis, a second cap body, and a resilient gasket sleeved on the second cap body.

The guiding mechanism includes an abutting member disposed on one of the second cap body and the insertion portion, and a guiding member having an inclined surface disposed on the other one of the second cap body and the insertion portion. Rotation of the knob causes the abutting member to slide on the inclined surface, and moves the second cap body between an opening position and a sealing position.

Abstract: A donated blood collection kit includes an easy-to-open closed container. Stored within the container are items necessary or useful for collecting donated blood, such as an antiseptic scrub, an antiseptic swab, test tubes, a blood collection container, a gauze pad and a sheet of pre-printed adhesive barcode labels.

Abstract: A cover for a dental appliance, such as a toothbrush, includes an exterior sleeve or sheath and an expansible foraminous interior cup. The head of a toothbrush is removably nested within the interior cup. The exterior sheath is formed from a pliable material which may be twisted around the head of a toothbrush to isolate it from the ambient. A disinfectant is disposed within the interior cup either by impregnation thereof or by an additional layer and which is in contact with the bristles of the toothbrush head. The disinfectant is water soluble and is activated by contact with water and/or saliva and absorbs the same when in contact therewith to minimize and/or reduce the redeposition of germs and bacteria when the brush is next used. A dispenser may be utilized therewith which removably stows both a toothbrush and a plurality of the covers.
