Abstract: A toothbrush includes a bristle holder oscillatably mounted within a brush head, and a carrier assembly carrying the bristle holder and reciprocatable with it within the brush head by a motor; and a coupling between the bristle holder and the brush head effective to oscillate the bristle holder upon its reciprocation by the motor.

Abstract: A cutter device particularly useful for cutting fingernails and toenails includes a housing grippable by a user for holding and manipulating the device. A slot is formed in a conical end portion of the housing and is elongated in the circumferential direction for receiving a nail to be cut. A rotatable head having an outer conical surface is rotatably mounted within the conical end portion of the housing. A blade is fixed to the rotatable head and has a cutting edge extending substantially radially of the conical surface of the head and perpendicularly to the slot. A motor within the housing and coupled to the head rotates the head, and the blade fixed thereto, such that the cutting edge of the blade is rotated substantially perpendicularly to the direction of elongation of the slot and the nail received therein.
