  • Publication number: 20250099217
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an electric toothbrush comprising: a plurality of LEDs (121) for irradiating light, in a toothbrush head region in which a brush mount portion is formed; a plurality of magnets (150) that dissipate heat generated from the LEDs (121); and a sensor unit (160) for measuring a biological signal.

  • Publication number: 20250099777
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a light-therapeutic mouth guard that maximizes sterilization and anti-inflammatory effects on teeth and gingiva by increasing emission intensity through overlapping light-emitting elements. The invention includes a guard body, worn in the mouth, accommodating teeth and gingiva with an accommodation groove. The groove consists of a masticatory surface-facing part that corresponds to the teeth row, and inner and outer wall parts facing the teeth and gingiva from both sides. A side light-emitting element is provided on the inner and/or outer wall part of the guard body to emit light at the side surfaces of the gingiva and teeth. The side light-emitting element is arranged in multiple rows to overlap the emitted light, thereby increasing emission intensity.

  • Patent number: 11925815
    Abstract: Provided is a light irradiated toothbrush, in which light sources, irradiating light having mutually different wavelengths, are arranged in alternation at the bottom of waveguide bristles so that light of different wavelengths give rise to constructive interference which strengthens the intensity of the irradiated light, and the height of the light sources are varied on the basis of the wavelength of the light irradiated therefrom so as to effectively transmit light of short wavelengths to the waveguide bristles, and light having mutually different wavelengths are transmitted by means of the waveguide bristles, thereby effectively transmitting the light to the mouth of a user.
