Abstract
The present disclosure relates to devices, methods and kits for accelerating the rate of whitening of teeth.
Claims20
An illuminating device for whitening the teeth in the mouth of a user comprising a light source that generates a wavelength in the violet portion of the electromagnetic spectrum in a wavelength of light of from about 400 nm to about 420 nm that is coupled to a mouthpiece.
An oral treatment device for whitening the teeth in the mouth of a user, comprising:
- a mouthpiece sized and shaped so that it can be inserted into the user's oral cavity and including:
- an inner border having a substantially concave shape to substantially match the curvature of rows of the teeth in the mouth;
- a light generating element positioned to focus the light generated toward the teeth positioned in the mouthpiece;
- and
- a plurality of projections on the inner border of the mouthpiece positioned adjacent the teeth positioned in the mouthpiece;
- a control unit connected to the mouthpiece, the control unit including:
- a vibration generating device for generating vibrations to cause the mouthpiece to vibrate;
- and
- a controller configured to:
- selectively energize the vibration generating device;
- and
- selectively energize light generating element.

A method of whitening the teeth in the mouth of a user using an oral treatment device, the oral treatment device comprising:
- a mouthpiece sized and shaped so that it can be inserted into the user's oral cavity and including:
- an inner border having a substantially concave shape to substantially match the curvature of rows of the teeth in the mouth;
- a light generating element positioned to focus the light generated toward the teeth positioned in the mouthpiece;
- and
- a plurality of projections on the inner border of the mouthpiece positioned adjacent the teeth positioned in the mouthpiece;
- a control unit connected to the mouthpiece, the control unit including:
- a vibration generating device for generating vibrations to cause the mouthpiece to vibrate;
- and
- a controller configured to:
- selectively energize the vibration generating device;
- and
- selectively energize light generating element,
- the method, comprising:
- applying a tooth whitening composition to the teeth;
- placing the teeth into the mouthpiece of the oral treatment device;
- applying vibrations to the teeth by energizing the vibration generating device of the oral treatment device;
- and
- applying light to the teeth by energizing the light generating element of the oral treatment device.
