Abstract: A denture-securing device is provided that is usable to substantially secure a denture within a mouth. The denture-securing device includes at least one absorbent and flexible pad installable on a first side and an opposite second side of a denture that is affixable to a human gum. The at least one pad comprises an embossed outer side configured to face a human gum when the pad is installed on the denture. The denture-securing device may be used with top dentures, bottom dentures, or other configurations of dentures. The denture-securing device may advantageously secure dentures without requiring use of adhesives. The denture-securing device may also reduce the likelihood of food getting under dentures, provide a firm yet soft and comfortable fit, and minimize rocking of lower dentures. The denture-securing device may advantageously be secured to gums using a suction fit through saliva or other sources of moisture.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is an attachment for a blow dryer which allows a person to dry hair from the roots towards the ends with a single hand. The attachment includes a means for connnection to the output side of the blow dryer and an air sheet forming means. Extending from the forming means is an air deflector which deflects the air sheet downward and extending from the remote end of the deflector is a plurality of picks each of which includes a hair lifter at the end thereof. The picks are offset from the surface of the deflector so that the deflected air sheet is deflected into the picks. The picks are spaced apart so as to act as an air diffuser to prevent too great an amount of air from being directed to the pick area. The attachment may be held onto the conventional blow dryer through the use of an elastic strap. In using the attachment it is moved into the area of the hair to be dried and thereafter lifted out.

Abstract: An attachment for a hair dryer performs the function of providing a lower velocity diffused air flow with apparatus to separate and lift the hair and allow the entire hair strand, from root to end, to be dried at the same time. The attachment includes a base member shaped to expand and turn a column of air from a conventional blow dryer by, for instance, 45 degrees. A face plate holds a diffuser pad in position. Extending from the face plate away from the base are a plurality of hair lifters, each of which lift a small amount of hair, so as to permit the entire hair, from root to end, to receive air and be dried at the same time. The face plate includes a plurality of holes therethrough to permit air flow and each hair lifter includes a post extending upward from the edge of the hole and an extension from the top of the post into the area above the corresponding hole. This structure allows the face plate to be fabricated by injection molding.
