Story Behind the Invention
Inventor Isabelle P. Onorato of Sudbury,ON has designed an electric toothbrush system that brushesteeth along a radial path provided by a cylindrical shapedtoothbrush.
Everyoneknows the importance of brushing his or her teeth to ensure completedental care. The market has responded with various ergonomictoothbrushes, electric toothbrushes, water based cleansing systems,and the like to help in this regard. However, these systems brushthe teeth side to side, back and forth, or simply vibrate in place. None of these systems brush the teeth the way that dentistsrecommend, which is from the base of the tooth at the gum to the tipof the tooth. Such a pattern brushes food, plaque and bacteria awayfrom the gum rather than pushing it along the gum or even under thegum line. Inventor Onorato has created a meansby which the cleaning and brushing of teeth can be accomplished in aman that takes into account the recommendation of dentists.
This clever new invention has a brush head that turns 360 degrees,and bristles that move in a linear pattern. It is powered bybatteries, and provides for healthier teeth and gums. The use ofthe Electrical Toothbrush with Integral FlossingMeans provides for the cleaning of teeth in anautomated manner which is quick, easy, and effective.
