  • Publication number: 20080221534
    Abstract: A tongue treatment device including a handle, a gripping portion and a working end for scraping a tongue and applying a treatment material to the tongue surface. The working end is configured as a closed loop defining an opening. On a first or upper side of an outer portion of the working end is an undulated toothed surface for cleaning and scraping the tongue surface to remove debris and bacteria. A bridge element with an acupressure beaded first surface interconnects opposed lateral sides of the closed loop. The bridge is configured to include at an opposite second surface a reservoir for temporarily holding treatment material. Along the edges of the reservoir are provided rows of massaging teeth for effectively applying the material to the tongue surface. A removable cover is provided to protect against cross contamination and may be positioned over or around the working end while not in use.

  • Patent number: 5779475
    Abstract: A tongue scraper including a handle extent with a first free end and a second end. Further provided is an intermediate gripping extent with a first end integrally coupled in collinear relationship with the handle extent. Also included is a scraping extent having a closed-loop configuration with a hollow center. The scraping extent includes a first end integrally coupled with a second end of the intermediate gripping extent. A second end of the scraping extent has teeth formed therein for scraping teeth of a user. The teeth are defined by a plurality of triangular cut outs. Such cut outs form a plurality of triangular wells and a plurality of teeth members which together define the teeth. The teeth members include linear beveled side extents and an arcuate top surface. The teeth are formed along less than 1/4 the entire periphery of scraping extent. The triangular wells associated with the teeth have a depth that is less than 1/3 the height of the scraping extent.
