Abstract

A device (900) with moving squeegees (905. 905') is disclosed. The squeegees (905, 905') can have any number of squeegee configurations. The squeegees or groups of the squeegees (905 905' ) are configured to move independently or separately concerted fashion. The device (900) is preferably an oral-care device and can include bristles (907) and/or nodules (907') that move or are stationary. In accordance with the embodiments of the invention the oral-care device includes rows of squeegees (905, 905') that move with a first motion and a center section with squeegees (905 905'), bristles (907) and/or nodules (907') that move with a second motion in a direction and/or frequency that is different from the first motion.
