Abstract
A mouth brush having a frame with first and second ends defining a longitudinal axis and formed from a solid material such as hard plastic. Conventional tooth brush bristles are mounted on the first end of the frame and extend down to define a first orientation perpendicular to the axis. Soft rubber nubs are mounted on the first end and extend perpendicularly from the axis in all other directions from the first orientation. These nubs are sufficiently soft to gently massage all oral tissue without changing one's toothbrushing routine. The device minimizes exfoliation of tissue layers in the mouth. A second material is also formed on the frame as a handle portion. The handle portion may be a soft material such as soft rubber so as to increase the user's grip when wet with water.

A mouth brush device, comprising:
- a frame with first and second ends defining a longitudinal axis and formed from a solid material;
- tooth brush bristles mounted on the first end of the frame and extend up to define a first orientation perpendicular to the axis;
- soft nubs mounted on the first end and extending perpendicularly from the axis in all other directions from the first orientation;
- and
- a second material formed on the frame as a handle portion for gripping said device.
A mouth brush device, comprising:
- frame means with first and second ends for defining a longitudinal axis and formed from a solid material;
- tooth brush bristles mounted on the first end of the frame and extend down to define a first orientation perpendicular to the axis;
- soft nub means for massaging the interior of the mouth during brushing mounted on the first end and extending perpendicularly from the axis in all other directions from the first orientation;
- and
- second material means formed on the frame for forming a handle portion for gripping said device.
