Patent ID: 7900637

Claim:
An aerosol spray device, comprising a spray bottle containing a substance and having an actuator engaged therewith and configured for releasing the substance from the spray bottle, the actuator extending from the spray bottle along a first axis, the actuator further including a tubular member extending therefrom along a longitudinal axis and defining a first channel extending along the longitudinal axis, the longitudinal axis being non-parallel to the first axis, and engaged with a dispensing head distally to the actuator, the dispensing head defining an axis parallel with the longitudinal axis of the tubular member and having a larger dimension transverse to the dispensing head axis than the tubular member transverse to the longitudinal axis, the dispensing head defining at least one orifice in communication with the first channel and configured to dispense therethrough an aerosol spray containing the substance released from the spray bottle, via the actuator and the first channel upon actuation of the actuator, at an angle of substantially 90±35 degrees with respect to the dispensing head axis, the dispensing head thereby being adapted to administer the substance to an oral cavity of a subject by directing the aerosol spray directly to an area in the front of the mandibular teeth of the subject, an area behind the teeth of the subject, or an area under the tongue of the subject.
