The light needs to point into the mouth and not just be a children's toothbrush with a blinking fun handle. I work as a health care assistant for a young woman who cannot tolerate light in her face. There are dental pen lights, but I can't use those because she also can't tolerate head movement so when I brush her teeth, I must hold her head with my left hand and hold the tooth brush with my right hand. :) Thus, I don't have enough hands to hold a light. I can't wear those dental lights that you put on as a headband because it doesn't focus the light enough and would light up her face and bother her. I need a brush that has a light in it. I have been looking on the internet for FOUR MONTHS. Suggestions are appreciated!! :)Thanks for any suggestions! :)

One thing would be to have an adjustable device that will hold the light for you. It might be costly or hard to get. I don't know about a toothbrush with a light in it but it sounds like a great thing to invent. This would be time consuming of course. I guess the toothbrush handle would be permanent and the bristles would need to be replaced.
