Patent Application
20250128082
The present disclosure relates to the technical field of toothbrushes, and in particular, to a phototherapy care toothbrush.
A toothbrush is a cleaning product that is a handle-style brush. Toothpaste is added onto the toothbrush, and then the toothbrush is used to repeatedly clean all parts of teeth to maintain oral hygiene.
The toothbrush can achieve a good cleaning effect on stains on surfaces of the teeth, but it is not good enough for deeper oral cleaning and care. For example, for teeth penetrated with yellow stains, it is impossible to remove the yellow stains obviously through the toothpaste or essence. For another example, a treatment effect may often be achieved on periodontitis, gingivitis, and the like by taking medicines or spraying anti-inflammatory fluid. Although these traditional methods can eliminate the annoyance of users to an extent, the essence, the medicines, and the anti-inflammatory fluid used in a mouth may more or less enter the internal organs of people through the mouth, thus causing harm to the health. It is not recommended if it is unnecessary.
Therefore, the traditional toothbrushes cannot meet more oral care needs of users in addition to their basic cleaning functions.
The present disclosure aims to provide a phototherapy care toothbrush. Phototherapy LEDs are arranged in a toothbrush head body. The phototherapy LEDs are used to emit phototherapy ray with a specific wavelength to assist in oral cleaning and oral care, so that a deep cleaning and care effect can be achieved. Furthermore, redundant chemical medicines can be effectively prevented from entering an internal system of a person from the mouth to harm the health, and the problems mentioned in the background section are solved.
