Abstract:
A portable self-contained tooth-whitening device includes a compact housing structured and configured to be held in a fixed position adjacent to a human jaw during use; at least a first array of LEDs disposed in a first plane at a front side of the housing and arranged to deliver blue visible light or near-visible UV light of at least a threshold intensity to substantially all anterior surfaces of anterior maxillary teeth or anterior mandibular teeth of the human jaw, wherein the first array of LEDs forms at least two intersecting arcs, each of which is disposed in the first plane and has its own focal point located outside the device; and at least one battery cell powering the array of LEDs.

Claim (Index 1):
A portable self-contained tooth-whitening device comprising:\n a compact housing structured and configured to be held in a fixed position adjacent to a human jaw during use; at least a first array of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) disposed in a first plane at a front side of the housing and arranged to deliver blue visible light or near-visible UV light of at least a threshold intensity to anterior surfaces of anterior maxillary teeth or anterior mandibular teeth of the human jaw, each of the LEDs having an axis of a primary focus, wherein the at least first array of LEDs comprises a plurality of outer LEDs and a plurality of inner LEDs, wherein the plurality of outer LEDs is arranged in a first outer arc having a first outer focal point formed by the axes of primary foci of the plurality of the outer LEDs, and the plurality of inner LEDs is arranged in a first inner arc different from the first outer arc and having a first inner focal point formed by the axes of primary foci of the plurality of the inner LEDs, wherein there is a distance between the first outer focal point and the first inner focal point, and wherein the first outer arc, the first inner arc, the first outer focal point, and the first inner focal point are disposed in the first plane; at least one battery cell powering the array of LEDs.
