An ultrasound oral hygiene and therapeutic device comprises an array of ultrasonic
transducers, a power generator, and a filling element. The ultrasonic transducer
array, with optional radiation plates and reflection plates, produce uniform ultrasound
radiation on each surface desirable to be treated by ultrasound radiation. The
soft and resilient filling element snugly fits into a user's oral cavity, confines
cleaning solution and the ultrasound action within a limited ultrasound action
zone surrounding the surfaces desirable to be treated, and protects all other parts
of the oral cavity from ultrasound radiation. The device provides superior, uniform,
and consistent cleaning results in a short time. In particular, it cleans the entire
dental surface, including the inter-dental and gingival areas. It is extremely
easy to use, quiet, durable, energy efficient, and inexpensive in long run.
