Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention further enhances the utility value of a conventional toothpick.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Heretofore, there have been toothpicks in which a fragrance or a chemical is applied to a sharpened tip portion corresponding to a portion used for cleaning teeth, and a toothpick in which a fragrance / a chemical is entirely penetrated.

[0003]

This is the same as the present invention for the purpose of use, but when the application of the fragrance and the drug is limited to a part of the tip of the toothpick, or when the fragrance and the drug are permeated into the toothpick. However, when cleaning the teeth, the toothpick had too little amount of drug, and the drug did not penetrate between the teeth or into the entire root, suggesting that it was not effective in preventing tooth decay or periodontal disease. The present invention has been made to eliminate this drawback.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems] A cylindrical bottle-shaped container (1) made of synthetic resin, a fragrance and a harmless germicidal agent (2) packed in the container, and a stopper for the container. A toothpick and a toothpick vial, each of which has a toothpick (3) having a collar (4) made of synthetic resin and serving as a lid for the container, and a wrapping paper (5) hygienically enclosing the entire body.

[0005]

In use, the wrapping paper (5) is broken, the medicine toothpick integrated with the bottle type container (1) is taken out, and further the medicine toothpick (3) is pulled out from the bottle type container. At this time, the bottle-shaped container is laid down so that the fragrance and the medicine (2) packed inside are applied to the tip of the toothpick. The tooth is cleaned with a toothpick coated with this fragrance and medicine. After that, the tip of the toothpick being used is again inserted into the bottle-shaped container, the drug is applied to the tip in the same manner, and the tooth is cleaned again with this. By repeating this, at the same time as cleaning the teeth,
As a result, a fragrance or a drug is naturally applied between the teeth or the root portion of the tooth, and the effect of the drug can provide a very effective result for the prevention of tooth decay and periodontal disease.

[0006]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below. (A) The cylindrical bottle-shaped container (1) is made of synthetic resin and has a total length of about 25 ▲ mm ▼ outer diameter of about 6 ▲ mm ▼ inner diameter of about 4 ▲ mm ▼
It is. The fry branch (3) is inserted from the tip, and the toothpick synthetic resin collar (4) serves as a lid for the bottle-shaped container.
Further, by molding with a colored synthetic resin material, a bottle-shaped container having various kinds of colors can be made, and it is possible to show not only the aesthetic appearance but also the kinds of the fragrance and the medicine. (B) The toothpick (3) is made of wood and has a length of about 65 mm and a diameter of about 2 mm. About 20 from the tip
A synthetic resin collar (4) having a thickness of about 1 mm and a width of about 2 mm is attached to the part of mm. This portion serves as a lid for the bottle-shaped container (1). (C) Regarding the fragrance and the drug (2), in this case, as an example, berberine chloride-containing preparation powder to which a small amount of purified salt is added is used. (D) The wrapping paper (5) is made so that a rectangular sanitary paper sheet is folded in two and a toothpick / bottle is wrapped in between, and the overlapped three sides can be fixed with an adhesive. (E) The bottle-shaped container (1) is filled with the fragrance and the drug (2), and the toothpick (3) is inserted from the tip of the toothpick as a container stopper so that the toothpick collar (4) becomes the lid of the container. Then, the whole is wrapped with a hygienic wrapping paper (5). The present invention has the above-mentioned contents, and the amount of the medicine is adjusted so that the medicine can be applied between the teeth or the whole root portion by one use.

[0007]

EFFECTS OF THE INVENTION By cleaning the teeth while the toothpick tips are constantly applied with the fragrance and the chemicals, the fragrance and the chemicals are sufficiently spread between the teeth and between the tooth roots to cause tooth decay or periodontal disease. It is expected to have a great effect on the prevention of the above, and by packaging the whole, the separation of the drug container and the toothpick is prevented and the tip of the toothpick before use is also prevented from being contaminated.
