[origin: US5875513A] PCT No. PCT/EP96/00481 Sec. 371 Date Aug. 22, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date Aug. 22, 1997 PCT Filed Feb. 27, 1995 PCT Pub. No. WO96/26657 PCT Pub. Date Sep. 6, 1996A finger-mounted toothbrush, including a fingerstall-type elastic cap part with a slanted insertion opening that is mountable on a finger and has an inner side and a finger tip region with an action surface with substantially bristle-type cleaning elements. The cap part has an outer side with a length of approximately 0.5-2.5 cm. An at least partially resiliently elastic bar-shaped holding handle has a first end attached to the cap part so as to extend substantially along an inner side of the finger, and a second end. A single holding element is provided at the second end of the resiliently elastic holding handle so that when mounted on the finger, the holding handle with the holding element reaches substantially into a center of a user's palm.
