Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a motorized device for cleaning between teeth and for treating teeth or gums according to the preamble of claim 1 . Background technique [0002] US Patent No. 5,839,895 already discloses an electric device for treating teeth or gums. The device has a vibrator and a shaft, the end of which is connected to the vibrator. Vibrations are transmitted via the shaft to a tip mounted on the free end of the shaft. This device is used for vibratory massage, which enhances the healing effect on oral tissues. Medications can also be applied to the oral tissue with the aid of corresponding devices. The above-mentioned patent also exemplifies the use of the device: filling of prefabricated tooth cavities, cementation of inlays or veneers, and treatment of other clinical phenomena. The device described in US 5,839,895 is mainly used in dental practice and not as a cleaning device for personal use. [0003] US Patent No. 4,880,382 disclos...
