Cleaning method between two teeth and piercing friction rod between two teeth

Abstract

Abstract PURPOSE:To simply perform massage and cleaning, by inserting a utensil which is formed by providing a gap to a strip like flexible elastomer, stretching a membrane like flare therefrom, providing unevenness thereto or applying raising treatment thereto, in the gap between two teeth to allow the same to move reciprocally. CONSTITUTION:The lengths of the upper sides 6a, 6b of the gap part 6a of a spring elastomer are made different in the gap between two teeth to increase the friction resistance of said elastomer. Recessed and protruding parts 8-1 are provided to the periphery of the excessive part of a space part 7 or to a part of said periphery to obtain stronger friction effect. A scrape-out part 8 functions as a squeeze for scraping out food pieces or foreign matters. When the leading end part 5' of this utensil is inserted in the gap between two teeth, the upper side 6a is curved to be pushed rearwardly but, when the whole is pushed in forwardly, the upper side 6a slips to move forwardly and pieces through the gap to again draw out the gap 6 to the outside of the teeth. This repeating operation is performed while a knob 9 is revolved.
