Description
Zahnbürste mit MikrofasernToothbrush with microfibers
Zur Reinigung der Zähne und zur Entfernung des Zahnbelags werden üblicherweise Zahnbürsten mit Borsten aus Kunststoff, Naturborsten oder Dachshaar verwendet. Für den Erfolg der Zahnreinigung ist die gründliche Entfernung des Zahnbelags entscheidend, weil dieser die Einwirkung der Bakterien begünstigt, die Karies verursachen. Die Entfernung dieser Plaques und die Verhinderung von Zahnsteinansatz dienen auch der Verhütung von Parodontose und Zahnfleischentzündungen.Toothbrushes with plastic, natural or badger bristles are usually used to clean teeth and remove plaque. Thorough removal of plaque is crucial for the success of tooth cleaning, as it encourages the action of bacteria that cause tooth decay. Removing this plaque and preventing the build-up of tartar also helps prevent periodontal disease and gingivitis.
Die Beseitigung des Zahnbelags bedarf der täglich mehrmaligen intensiven Reinigung der Zähne mit einer gebräuchlichen Zahnbürste, wobei für das Zähneputzen eine Zeit von drei bis fünf Minuten erforderlich ist. Zur Erhöhung der Reinigungswirkung ist der Gebrauch von Zahnpasta angezeigt. Der Ansatz von Zahnstein wird auch durch intensives Zähneputzen und Gebrauch besonderer Zahnpasten allenfalls verlangsamt, aber nicht verhindert.Removing plaque requires intensive cleaning of the teeth several times a day with a regular toothbrush, with brushing taking three to five minutes. To increase the cleaning effect, the use of toothpaste is recommended. Intensive brushing and the use of special toothpastes can at best slow down the formation of tartar, but not prevent it.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, die Reinigung der Zähne und insbesondere die Entferung des Zahnbelags zu erleichtern und zu beschleunigen. Zahnpasta kann eingespart werden, weil für die Anwendung der Mikrofaser-Zahnbürste Leitungswasser genügt. Dem Ansatz von Zahnstein wird intensiver," als dies mit einer üblichen Zahnbürste möglich ist, entgegengewirkt.The invention is based on the task of making cleaning teeth and in particular removing plaque easier and faster. Toothpaste can be saved because tap water is sufficient for using the microfiber toothbrush. The buildup of tartar is counteracted more intensively than is possible with a conventional toothbrush.
Die Aufgabe wird dadurch gelöst, daß die Borsten einer Zahnbürste durch Mikrofasern ersetzt oder ergänzt werden. Die Verwendung von Tüchern, mit Mikrofasern an der Oberfläche ist für Reinigungsaufgaben, z. B. im Haushalt, bekannt.The task is solved by replacing or supplementing the bristles of a toothbrush with microfibers. The use of cloths with microfibers on the surface is well known for cleaning tasks, e.g. in the home.

Da Mikrofasern eine hohe Reinigungswirkung haben, ohne empfindliche Oberflächen anzugreifen, eignen sie sich auch für die Dentalreinigung. Mit der Mikrofaser-Zahnbürste können schon durch kurzes Abwischen der Zähne Zahnbeläge entfernt werden, ohne daß für die Reinigung Zahnpasta benötigt wird. Der Ansatz von Zahnstein wird gegenüber dem Putzen der Zähne mit einer üblichen Bürste zumindest erheblich verlangsamt.Since microfibers have a high cleaning effect without damaging sensitive surfaces, they are also suitable for dental cleaning. With the microfiber toothbrush, plaque can be removed by simply wiping the teeth, without the need for toothpaste. The buildup of tartar is at least significantly slowed down compared to brushing the teeth with a normal brush.
Es erweist sich als zweckmäßig, wenn die Mikrofaser-Zahnbürste an ihrem Kopf an allen vier Seiten mit dem Streifen eines Reinigungstuches versehen wird, um - vor allem in Verbindung mit einem gebogenen Griff - schwer zugängliche Stellen an der Innenseite der Zähne und die Zahnzwischenräume besser erreichen zu können (Schutzanspruch 2). Schutzanspruch 3 und 4 sehen Verbindungen von Mikrofasern und Borsten vor, um die Reinigungswirkung zu optimieren. Schutzanspruch 5 betrifft die Ergänzung einer handelsüblichen Zahnbürste durch Mikrofasern auf der Rückseite. Schließlich ist auch eine Ausführung als elektrische Zahnbürste (Schutzanspruch 6) möglich.It proves to be useful if the microfiber toothbrush is provided with a strip of cleaning cloth on all four sides of its head in order to be able to reach hard-to-reach places on the inside of the teeth and the spaces between the teeth better - especially in conjunction with a curved handle (protection claim 2). Protection claims 3 and 4 provide for combinations of microfibers and bristles in order to optimize the cleaning effect. Protection claim 5 concerns the addition of microfibers to the back of a standard toothbrush. Finally, a design as an electric toothbrush is also possible (protection claim 6).
Fig. 1 und 2 zeigen die Ausführung nach Schutzanspruch 2 im Schnitt von der Seite und in der Sicht von oben. Fig. 3 und 4 zeigen Ausführungen nach den Ansprüchen 3 und 4 im Schnitt in Seitenansicht. Es bezeichnen die Ziff. 1 die Griffe, 2 das Grundgewebe, 3 die Mikrofasern, 4 herkömmliche Borsten.Fig. 1 and 2 show the design according to claim 2 in section from the side and in a view from above. Fig. 3 and 4 show designs according to claims 3 and 4 in section in side view. The numbers 1 designate the handles, 2 the base fabric, 3 the microfibers, 4 conventional bristles.
