ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a portable, self powered, oral cavity cleaner that produces a pulsed stream of fluid to clean the teeth, and areas around the gums and teeth. It is powered by compressed gas contained in a container along with the fluid to be dispensed, and has a valve that produces a pulsed stream.
The fluid in the pressurized unit could contain some or all of the following: breath freshener, plaque inhibitor or dissolving agent, bactericidal and bacteriostatic ingredients. It should also exhibit the ability to be swallowed so that spitting it out might be obviated while leaving the mouth feeling refreshed.
The stream is directed by a tube that has an angle and an articulated joint that is leak proof and snaps together for assembly. The dispensing tube, articulated joint, and pulsating valve are protected by a hygienic cover which rotates respective to the container to expose the tube. The pulsating valve, hygienic cover and dispensing tube may be reused.
In another embodiment the pulsating valve fits onto a bottle of soda enabling an individual to clean the teeth using the fluid and the dissolved gas in the soda bottle to provide the pressure and working fluid to clean the teeth.
