Abstract: A brush head for an electric toothbrush is disclosed. The brush head includes a bristle support having mounting means for the movable mounting of the bristle support and a plurality of bristle tufts arranged on the bristle support in at least one outer ring and one middle ring, the middle ring being nested within the outer ring and having a central area. The outer ring includes outer bristle tufts having an elongated tuft cross-section, which outer bristle tufts are mounted on opposing sides of the outer ring. The middle ring includes at least two middle bristle tufts that each have a cross-section that is smaller than the cross-section of the outer bristle tufts and a central area including at least one bristled section that consists of two center bristle tufts having a cross-section larger than the cross-section of the middle bristle tufts.

Abstract: A brush head for an electric toothbrush is disclosed. The brush head includes a plate-shaped bristle support including mounting means for the movable mounting of the bristle support, the bristle support carrying at least two outer bristle tufts and at least two inner bristle tufts, the outer bristle tufts having a greater height than the inner bristle tufts, such that in the working surface defined by the free ends of the tufts there is formed a central depression which has a groove-shaped concave bottom curved in one direction and extending substantially straight in the direction vertical thereto. At least one of the outer bristle tufts has a chamfer on its outer lying edge of its free end close to the circumferential side of the bristle support.

Abstract: A brush head for an electric toothbrush is disclosed. The brush head includes a substantially plate-shaped bristle support carrying a bristle field, the bristle field having a main axis extending substantially perpendicularly to the bristle support and including a plurality of bristles defining with their free ends a flat or concave working surface to be put onto the teeth to be cleaned; driving and/or transmitting means for driving the bristle support using a reciprocating poking motion along a poking axis and an oscillatory rotational motion about an axis of rotation; and connecting means for connecting the bristle support with a toothbrush handpiece such that a brush head longitudinal axis extends substantially parallel to a toothbrush handpiece longitudinal axis in connected condition.
