Abstract

Toothbrushes (100) are provided which provide and direct a flow of air to the head (104) of the brush for delivery to the mouth of a user during use. The toothbrushes (100) may be produced to be modular and capable of being assembled and disassembled as needed, with a power supply (208), motor (210), fan, and head portion (104) being replaceable, or they may alternatively be constructed so as to be disposable. The toothbrushes (100) may additionally include a volume of a beneficial agent to be dispensed with the flow of air to change, enhance, or add to the properties of a dentifrice used during brushing. One such beneficial agent may be ozone provided by an ozone chip integrated into the toothbrush.
