  • Patent number: 9668841
    Abstract: The invention relates to a toothbrush (1), in particular an electric toothbrush, comprising: —a support member (2), —a first tooth brushing member (3) mounted on said support member so as to be able to rotate about a rotation axis (XX?), said first brushing member having a lateral surface (3L) which extends along its rotation axis (XX?) between a proximal end (3P) and an opposite distal end (3D), said lateral surface being intended to be brought into contact with the teeth (4) in order to clean them, said toothbrush being characterized in that it has a flexible trim (20), separate from the first brushing member (3), which is arranged facing the distal end (3D) approximately transversely to the rotation axis (XXI) so as to at least partially overlap the transverse section (3S) of said first brushing member (3).

  • Patent number: 8590093
    Abstract: This invention provides a toothbrush comprising: a.) a support member of the handle type; b.) at least one brushing member mounted to rotate on said support member about an axis of rotation (X-X?), and having side surface that extends along the axis of rotation between a proximal end facing towards the support member, and an opposite, distal end, and that is designed to be brought into contact with the teeth for the purpose of cleaning them; and c.) a physiological retractor covering said side surface in part so as to protect the mucous membranes adjacent to the teeth from the mechanical action of the brushing member; Said toothbrush being characterized in that, facing the side surface of the brushing member, the physiological retractor has a retraction portion.
