Abstract: A hygienic cosmetic applicator system comprising an instrument-like gripping body (2) that has a holder on at least one end to releasably grip single use applicator (12) tips. The gripping body (2) has a handle (4) for grasping with the fingers, a tapered shaft (6) emerging from at least one end, and a apertured holder that is terminally formed onto or into a shafts (6) tapered end. A holder may comprise a ringlet (8) with a centrally formed aperture (10) that is formed onto the shafts (6) tapered end, or alternatively, a suitably deep aperture (10) that is formed into the shafts (6) tapered end. By contrast, an applicator (12) has a shaft-like inserting member (14) to frictionally plug into an aperture (10) and furthermore, a terminally formed base (6) on its non-inserting end for holding an applicating member therein or thereon.

Abstract: In accordance with the present invention, a variably ergonomic bottle extension system to increase a bottles feeding range comprising a baby bottle (2) having a first articular surface to pivotably conjoin with an elongated extension rod (12) having a second articular surface, wherein conjoining the surfaces creates a joint, so that the bottle (2) can pivot along one or more axes. Whereby conjoining the bottles (2) articular surface with the extension rod's (12) articular surface pivotably extends the bottles feeding range and furthermore, pivotably accommodates a number of feeding positions. Whereby a caretaker can, while cradling an infant, grip the extension rod (12) with their cradling arm or other arm and use the bottle's (2) extended feeding range to feed an infant with their cradling arm or other arm. Whereupon, if a caretaker uses their cradle arm to feed, they can unencumber their other arm for other purposes.

Abstract: A dental matrix band (1) having a brace extrusion window (4), a flash guard (14) and guard brace (22) which fold to articulate into a conventional Tofflemire-like matrix band shape. The flash guard (14) is secured by the guard brace (22) against the brace extrusion window 4. This serves as a barrier to temporarily block a restorative substance from passing into an inter-proximal space. After cutting a connecting severance junction (30), the flash guard (14) is removed via a removal tab (16) and aperture (18). The restorative material is then displaced to created direct contact with an adjacent inter proximal surface through the window 4. After polymerization, a series of linearly aligned notches (28a,b,c,d), superior window notches (8a,b), inferior window notch (10a,b) and gingival notch (12a,b) permit a vertical bisection split through the matrix (1) conjoined aperture(25). This facilitates the matrix (1) removal from a cured contact point.

Abstract: A thin, flexible, gently angled boomerang shaped matrix band (2) having an extrusion window (6) located within the medial portion of the band's (2) inferior and superior borders. Located inferiorly, a gingival separation notch, (10) is medially aligned with and terminates a measured distance below the extrusion window (6). Located superiorly, a semicircular bridge (8) is medially aligned with both the extrusion window (6) and the gingival separation notch (10).

Abstract: An ergonomically contoured, snail shaped rectal pad comprising a highly compressible pressure-producing node (2) contiguous to a thin blade-like structure called a tail (4) enveloped in an absorbent sheath. Surrounding these structures are two flap-like lateral wings (6), which form the posterior groove (12). Emerging from the posterior groove is the insertion aperture (10) and the removal tab (14). Encasing the pad is a highly absorbent sheath (16).
