Benefits of technology

[0009]The main objective of the invention is to provide a toothbrush capable of furbishing enlarged accessible area of teeth-surfaces that is easily to clean so as to prevent bacterial nourishment.

Problems solved by technology

As a result, the bristle tufts, which are not able to perfectly match the surfaces of teeth, inevitably leave certain unreachable dead angle and fail to furbish all the surfaces of the teeth.
Thus the conventional toothbrush may instead jeopardize oral hygiene.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates to a toothbrush, especially to a toothbrush capable of slight bending and wobbling for applying an enhanced hygiene effect on a tooth surface.[0003]2. Description of the Prior Art[0004]As an indispensible oral-hygiene task of everyday life, tooth brushing eliminates food residues and dental plaques and stimulates the gums so as to facilitate circulation and to strengthen the pathogen-resisting abilities of tissues. A toothbrush is an instrument for tooth brushing. The fact that using a well-designed toothbrush provides significant oral hygiene effects has indicated the importance of toothbrushes.[0005]Teeth are solid objects whose surfaces are not flat, while the tufted bristles of a toothbrush head are also solid in terms of abutting against the teeth, even though individual filaments of the bristles are resilient. As a result, the bristle tufts, which are not able to perfectly match the s...
