Abstract (en)

A device for cleaning teeth comprises a generally conical, hollow member (12) that is preferably made of semi-flexible or flexible material. The member has a wide, open end (15) large enough to permit insertion of a person's tongue or finger and a narrow closed end (14). A number of flexible bristles (16) or loops are connected to the hollow member and project outwardly from the exterior surface of the member. Preferably, the hollow member has a circumferential rib (18) extending around the open end.
