Abstract

A toothbrush (10) includes a head (14) having a prophylaxis polishing cup (1 6) closely surrounded by cleaning elements in the form of a bristle ring (18) extending above the upper surface (20) of the cup. Alternatively, the cups could be in the form of arrays of densely packed cleaning elements (116). Th e area formed by these configurations retains toothpaste on the toothbrush during use. Additional cleaning elements (124) may be arranged about the periphery of the toothbrush head. The toothbrush may be a powered toothbrush (110A) wherein the cups and/or bristle rings rotate, oscillate or reciprocat e to better clean teeth.
