Dentistry - Manual toothbrushes - General requirements and test methods (ISO 20126:2022)

This document specifies requirements and test methods for the physical properties of manual toothbrushes in order to promote the safety of these products for their intended use.
This document does not specify any requirements and test methods for the physical properties of toothbrushes for which all the cleaning elements in the head are elastomer.
This document does not apply to manual single tuft toothbrushes, single use, interdental and powered oral hygiene devices. These types of oral hygiene products are evaluated for their safety in-use by appropriate test methods or clinical trials.
In addition, for the filaments end-rounding requirements, this document does not apply to particular filament types which are very thin (less than 0,1 mm outside diameter) or have no sharp edges (e.g. tapered, feathered, with split tips, or spherical cap) or non-synthetic filaments, where applying end-rounding process is inappropriate or impossible. These types of manual toothbrushes are evaluated for their safety in-use by appropriate test methods or clinical trials appropriately.

Zahnheilkunde - Handzahnbürsten - Allgemeine Anforderungen und Prüfverfahren (ISO 20126:2022)

Dieses Dokument legt Anforderungen und Prüfverfahren für die physikalischen Eigenschaften von Handzahnbürsten fest, um für die vorgesehene Anwendung die Gebrauchssicherheit dieser Produkte zu verbessern.
Dieses Dokument legt keine Anforderungen und Prüfverfahren für die physikalischen Eigenschaften von Zahnbürsten fest, bei denen alle Reinigungselemente im Bürstenkopf Elastomere sind.
Dieses Dokument gilt nicht für Handzahnbürsten mit einem Büschel, zur Einmalanwendung, Interdental-und elektrische Mundhygieneprodukte. Diese Arten von Mundhygieneprodukten werden durch geeignete Prüfverfahren oder klinische Studien auf ihre Sicherheit bei der Anwendung untersucht.
Darüber hinaus, für die Anforderungen an die End-Abrundung der Filamente, gilt dieses Dokument nicht für bestimmte Filamenttypen, die sehr dünn sind (weniger als 0,1 mm Außendurchmesser) oder die keine scharfen Ecken (z. B. konisch, aufgefächert, mit geteilten Spitzen oder kugelförmiger Kappe) aufweisen oder für nicht-synthetische Filamente, für die das Verfahren zur End-Abrundung nicht geeignet oder nicht möglich ist. Diese Arten von Handzahnbürsten werden durch geeignete Prüfverfahren oder klinische Studien auf ihre Sicherheit bei der Anwendung untersucht.

Médecine bucco-dentaire - Brosses à dents manuelles - Exigences générales et méthodes d'essai (ISO 20126:2022)

Le présent document spécifie les exigences et les méthodes d'essai relatives aux caractéristiques physiques des brosses à dents manuelles afin de promouvoir la sécurité de ces produits dans les conditions d’utilisation prévues.
Le présent document ne spécifie pas les exigences et les méthodes d’essai relatives aux caractéristiques physiques des brosses à dents dont tous les éléments nettoyants de la tête sont en élastomère.
Le présent document ne s’applique pas aux brosses à dents manuelles monotouffe et aux dispositifs électriques interdentaires d’hygiène bucco-dentaire à usage unique. La sécurité d’emploi de ces types de produits d’hygiène bucco-dentaire est évaluée en appliquant des méthodes d’essai et des essais cliniques appropriés.
De plus, en ce qui concerne les exigences d’arrondissage des extrémités de filaments, le présent document ne s’applique pas aux types particuliers de filaments qui sont très fins (moins de 0,1 mm de diamètre extérieur) ou qui n’ont pas d’arêtes vives (par exemple effilés, amincis, à pointes divisées ou à calotte) ou aux filaments non synthétiques dans lesquels l’application du processus d’arrondissage des extrémités est inappropriée ou impossible. La sécurité d’emploi de ces types de brosses à dents manuelles est évaluée en appliquant des méthodes d’essai et des essais cliniques appropriés.

Zobozdravstvo - Ročne zobne ščetke - Splošne zahteve in preskusne metode (ISO 20126:2022)

Ta dokument določa zahteve in preskusne metode za fizične lastnosti ročnih zobnih ščetk, da se spodbuja varnost teh izdelkov pri njihovi predvideni uporabi. Ta dokument ne določa nobenih zahtev in preskusnih metod za fizikalne lastnosti zobnih ščetk, pri katerih so vsi čistilni elementi v glavi elastomerni.
Ta dokument se ne uporablja za ročne zobne ščetke z enim šopom ščetin, ščetke za enkratno uporabo, medzobne ščetke in električne  ustne higienske pripomočke. Varnost teh izdelkov za ustno higieno je ocenjena z ustreznimi preskusnimi metodami ali kliničnimi preskušanji.
Poleg tega se ta dokument v zvezi z zahtevami glede zaokroževanja koncev vlaken, ne uporablja za posebne vrste vlaken, ki so zelo tanka (manj kot 0,1 mm zunanjega premera) ali nimajo ostrih robov (npr. zožena, trakasta, z razcepljenimi konicami, sferično kapico) ali nesintetična vlakna, pri katerih je uporaba postopka zaokroževanja neprimerna ali nemogoča. Te vrste ročnih zobnih ščetk so ocenjene z ustreznimi preskusnimi metodami ali kliničnimi preskušanji.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed
