A pressure sensor for a toothbrush. The pressure sensor includes a substrate, a contact arm in the substrate, a power source, a signal element, and a sensor contact. The sensor contact may be mounted to the substrate such that the contact arm is not in contact with the sensor contact when the substrate is not flexed. As a user applies pressure to a toothbrush head, the substrate can flex and move the contact arm toward the sensor contact. When a threshold force is applied to the toothbrush head, the contact arm can contact the sensor contact, completing a circuit between the power source, the sensor contact, and the signal element that activates the signal element. A second sensor contact can be mounted to the substrate opposite the first sensor contact. The second sensor contact can allow the signal element to indicate three different states to a user.

A drive mechanism for electric toothbrush includes a grip housing and a pivot housing mounted within the grip housing. The pivot housing has a fixed portion, a movable portion with a free end spaced from the fixed portion, and bridge that connects the fixed and movable portions and defines a fulcrum. A motor is mounted within the pivot housing, and an eccentric weight extends from the motor with the motor operable to rotate the eccentric weight. A brush shaft is attached to the pivot housing opposite the free end. A power source is adapted to activate the motor and rotate the eccentric weight, such that the free end of the pivot housing is driven to move by the movement of the eccentric weight, the pivot housing pivots at the fulcrum, and the brush end of the brush shaft oscillates about the fulcrum.

A pressure feedback system continuously monitors the level of pressure or force on a brush head and is programmed to provide a feedback signal to a user based on the amount of pressure. The pressure level is monitored as a function of the change in the speed of the drive shaft. The system includes a housing, a motor, a drive shaft for attachment to a brush head, a feedback device, a sensor capable of detecting a change in the rotational speed of the drive shaft, and a microprocessor. The microprocessor is programmed activate the feedback device as a function of the measured change in rotational speed. The sensor may be a Hall effect sensor, or another sensor that is responsive to a magnetic field. A magnet may be positioned on the drive shaft, or another portion of the system that moves as a function of the drive shaft.
