20150190218 | Electric Toothbrush With Drive Mechanism - A toothbrush that includes a brushing attachment and a handle. The brushing attachment includes a main body portion with a hollow neck having an attachment opening and a head with a cleaning member opening, a drive shaft positioned in the neck, a cleaning member drive mechanism matingly engaged with gearing on the drive shaft, and a cleaning member extending through the cleaning member opening in the head and operatively associated with the cleaning member drive mechanism. The drive shaft includes a spline drive on one end and gearing on the opposite end. The handle includes a main body portion with a brushing attachment connection receiver that is at least partially received in the attachment opening. The brushing attachment connection receiver includes a recess defined therein that receives a drive hub with a grooved recess defined therein that receives the spline drive. | 07-09-2015 |
20150073399 | Hand-Held Portable Laser Surgical Device - A hand-held, portable diode laser surgical device includes a power supply, at least one laser diode, integral control interface and display, and a multi-component sterile, disposable tip apparatus featuring assembly for alignment of a self-contained optical fiber to the surgical device, and releasably locking assembly between the tip apparatus and surgical device. An embodiment includes wireless foot pedal on/off control and a dock providing sterile, antiseptic recharging environment. | 03-12-2015 |
20140215804 | METHOD OF PREPARATION FOR RESTORING TOOTH STRUCTURE - A method for producing a dentist tool includes simulation of predetermined horizontal, vertical, and tilt movements to be followed by a cutting tool to remove a predetermined part of tooth structure for further treatment of a tooth. An overlay is determined to fit the tooth by determining a first guiding edge within the overlay corresponding to the predetermined movements and determining a second guiding edge within the overlay spaced apart from the first guiding edge and corresponding to the predetermined movements. The first and second guiding edges are provided to contact the cutting tool so as to guide horizontal, vertical, and tilt movements of the cutting tool such that the cutting tool follows the predetermined horizontal, vertical, and tilt movements for removal of the predetermined part of tooth structure. The determined overlay is produced with the first and second guiding edges and such that it fits the tooth. | 08-07-2014 |
20120270176 | METHOD FOR PRODUCING A DENTIST TOOL - A method for producing a dentist tool for use in removing tooth structure is provided. The method includes acquiring three-dimensional data relating to a shape of a tooth and part of a neighbouring tooth. The method includes processing the data to determine an overlay fitting the tooth and part of the neighboring tooth. The method further includes processing the data to determine the tooth structure to be removed from the tooth to prepare the tooth for further treatment. The method includes determining first and second guiding edges such that the two edges are spaced apart a distance of at least 0.5 mm and configured to enable a dentist cutting tool to be guided by simultaneously contacting the first and second guiding edges to enable a guided removal of at least partially the predetermined part of tooth structure. The method includes producing the determined overlay having the determined guiding edges. | 10-25-2012 |
20100172846 | COMPOSITION AND METHOD OF BLEACHING TEETH - Methods of using tooth bleaching gels with a high concentration of peroxide are disclosed. The present invention also provides a method for treating one or more teeth. The method includes steps of applying a desensitizing gel to one or more teeth, applying therapeutically effective amount of a tooth bleaching gel with a high concentration of peroxide to one or more teeth, and leaving the gel in contact with the one or more teeth such that the gel may whiten the tooth or teeth. | 07-08-2010 |
20100121198 | Multi-Purpose Illumination System And Method For Tissue Examination - The present invention is a multi-purpose light source of a unique design and specialized attachments. The invention encompasses a system for the illumination and visual detection of normal and abnormal biologic tissue comprising a light source, a light transmitting device and a light viewing device wherein said device allows for the simultaneous illumination and viewing of target tissue. | 05-13-2010 |
20100119431 | Strong Glass-Ceramic - The present invention relates generally dental ceramics. In particular, invention relates to a high strength, high reliability, dental glass-ceramic that contains uniform, ellipsoidal reinforcing leucite crystals. | 05-13-2010 |
20090081104 | Control of ceramic microstructure - The present invention provides for the production of a single frit, dental porcelain, glass-ceramic containing small, uniformly dispersed, single leucite crystals of ellipsoidal habit and very uniform size. | 03-26-2009 |
20090052184 | Multi-Purpose Light Source - The present invention is a multi-purpose light source of a unique design and specialized attachments which are also independently unique that can be used for, but not limited to, Dental, Medical, Cosmetic, and Industrial applications and procedures. Specifically the spectral irradiance of the light source can be controlled in such a way as to allow it to be used for procedures currently performed by lasers, electrosurgical devices, and hand instruments while retaining the benefits of the light source for other uses such as the photo-initiation of resins, tooth whitening, fluorescence, and illumination. The present invention may be used instead of a laser either independently or in conjunction with electrosurgical devices and hand instruments. | 02-26-2009 |
