Abstract

Ein Zahnreinigungsgerät (1) hat einen Handgriff (2) und wenigstens ein, vorzugsweise mehrere Interdental-Behandlungsteile, von denen wenigstens eines die Form einer Bürste (3) hat, deren Borsten (4) durch Windungen eines gedrehten oder verdrillten Haltedrahtes (5) fixiert sind. Die Bürste (3) ist an dem Handgriff (2) in axialer Richtung festliegend und in der Regel auswechselbar gelagert und außerdem relativ zu dem Handgriff (2) drehbar, so daß sie bei einer Verklemmung in einem Zwischenraum zwischen zwei Zähnen nicht entgegen der Drillrichtung des Haltedrahtes (5) verdreht und dieser so gelockert werden kann, daß Borsten (4) freigegeben werden (Fig.).
