The First African American To Invent And Patent A Toothbrush—Ralph Cyril Winge, D.D.S.!





"Hi there!...


...I hope you enjoy the show!"






After having seen a good Netflix movie, your "I sometimes dream about me dancing by myself in the middle of the crowded dance floor pretending like I am the only one there!" smile


is getting a little sleepy, and you nod off on the couch and dream about a previous blog preface where HSR AND HIS SHIP'S CREW, WHO ARE EYE-PATCH-WEARING, UNDERARM-SCRATCHING, ALWAYS BURPIN', NOSE-PICKIN', LOUD SNORIN', SERIAL WOMANIZIN',  TREASURE SEARCHIN', NO TEETH BRUSHIN', NE'ER-DO-WELL THRILL SEEKERS--EXCEPT WHEN IT COMES TO FOLLOWING HSR'S ORDERS--WELL, THEY ANCHOR THEIR CLASSIC, MIGHTY PIRATE SHIP...


...NEXT TO A BEAUTIFUL, YET DANGEROUS,  ENCHANTED ISLAND...


WHICH IS RUMORED TO HAVE AT LEAST 25% OF THE WORLD’S GOLD, DIAMONDS, RUBIES, AND PEARLS BURIED NEARBY THERE, AND SCORES OF BEAUTIFUL LOOSE WOMEN THAT AIN'T FOR FREE...

BUT SOMETHING IN THE AIR DOESN'T SEEM RIGHT TO HSR, SO HE TELLS HIS CREW THAT HE'S GOING TO CHECK THINGS OUT BY HISSELF AND GET SOME GOOD RUM FOR THE GUYS, AND BE RIGHT BACK, SO THE CAPTAIN STEPS DOWN FROM THE PLANK AND HEADS ON OVER TO THE NEAREST WATERING HOLE, "MOBY DICK'S FISH FRY AND BAR," AND ON HIS WAY, HE PASSES BY AN ALL-FEMALE PIRATE SHIP, LED BY A NOT-TO-BE-MESSED-WITH WOMAN WITH WHOM HE HAS HAD A COUPLE OF ENCOUNTERS, CAPTAIN SALLY SEAS...


AND SHE SAYS, " AHOY THERE, CAPTAIN R! GOT A MINUTE, MATE?...LET'S SPLASH BACK SOME SHOTS OF YOUR FAVORITE AND TALK ABOUT OLD TIMES...AND YES, I HAVE SOMETHING FOR YOU...I PICKED IT UP AT SINGALORE ISLAND...AND HSR POLITELY SAYS, "I'D LIKE TO RIGHT NOW, BUT ME MENS ARE WAITIN' FER SUM RUM, BUT AFTER WE'RE GOOD 'N SAUCED, ME 'N ME GUYS WILL STAGGER ON OVER AND COMMENCE AN ADMIRAL PANTY RAID!'...

"ME AND MY GIRLS'LL BE READY! BUT DON'T KEEP US WAITIN' TOO LONG!," REPORTS BACK CAPTAIN SEAS...

"I KNOW A GOOD THING WHEN I SEE IT!, I'LL BE RIGHT BACK!," PROMISES HSR...

SO, HE CONTINUES ON OVER TO MOBY DICK'S PLACE...

HOWEVER, UNBEKNOWNST TO HSR, A MERMAID,


WHO KNOWS HIM, IS OFF TO THE SIDE, STARING AND MAKING PLANS TO GET WITH CAPTAIN HSR...MAYBE WHEN HE RETURNS BACK TO SHIP...

"HEY, YOU!... R...FOR WHAT YOU COME HERE FOR?"...


"OH, HI THERE, SHERIFF!, LOVE YOUR GRAMMAR" GREETS HSR BACK...

"HEY, LEAVE MY GRANDMA OUT OF THIS!...I'M NO SHERIFF ANY MORE, I'M NOW KING OF THE ISLAND! AND FOR YOU TO COME ON MY ISLAND...IT'S A HUNDRED DOUBLOONS,


"RIGHT NOW!," PRONOUNCES THE ISLAND KING...

"WELL, I DON'T HAVE A HUNDRED DOUBLOONS NOW...BUT I AM GOING TO BUY SOME RUM FER ME MEN...IS THAT OKAY?," ASKS HSR...

"NO WAITING FOR DOUBLOONS! YOU NO PAY NOW, OR I THROW YOU IN DA BRIG! PLUS, YOU GUYS BEAT UP ME MEN'S TEETH UP LAST TIME...AND DER'S AIN'T NO DENTIST HERE NO MORE!," SHOUTS THE KING...

AFTER SAYING THAT HE DOESN'T HAVE THE REQUIRED AMOUT TO STAY ON THE ISLAND, THE KINGS THUGS AND HEAVIES PUSH HIM ALONG,


 "WE LOCK YOU UP IN THE BRIG, NOW!"...

SO THEY TAKE HSR TO A PLACE THAT LOOKS LIKE A DUNGEON UNDER THE TAVERN, WHERE IT'S DARK AND MUSTY WITH SOME LARGE CAGES...TO HOLD SOME UNFORTUNATE PEOPLE, AND THEY PUSH HSR INTO ONE OF THEM AND THEY SLAM THE DOOR SHUT ON HIM AND CLOSE THE LOCK FOR IT...

NOW CAPTAIN HSR LOOKS AROUND, SQUINTING HIS EYES TO SEE WHAT HE CAN IN THE DARK PLACE...AND...HE NOTICES A VERY IMPORTANT PERSON IN THE CAGE NEXT TO HIM... IT'S THE KING OF MYBERIA--KING CYRIL!...



"KING CYRIL, YOUR HIGHNESS!...OF ALL PEOPLE! YOU'RE SURE A LONG WAYS FROM YOUR HOME!...WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?...

AND KING CYRIL ASKS, "WHO ARE YOU, SIR?...ANOTHER KIDNAPPING VICTIM?"

"NO, KING CYRIL...I'M CAPTAIN HSR!...AND I WORK FOR HER MAJESTY...ON THE SIDE... AS AN ENTERPRISING SECRET PIRATE, OF COURSE!," ADMITS HSR...

"WELL, MY BODYGUARD AND I ARE BEING HELD FOR--YOU GUESSED IT-- A KING'S RANSOM!," 



SAYS KING CYRIL...

"YOUR HIGHNESS, WHAT IF I TELL YOU THAT I CAN GET US ALL OUT OF HERE RIGHT NOW, AND TAKE YOU BACK HOME TO YOUR KINGDOM?," GLEEFULLY SMILES CAPTAIN HSR...

"I'D BE SO, SO GRATEFUL AND REWARD YOU VERY WELL!," PROMISES KING CYRIL AS HIS EYES GLAZE OVER WITH TEARS OF JOY...

"LET'S SEE ABOUT THIS," LETS ON HSR...

WELL, CAPTAIN HSR PULLS OUT A SET OF KEYS FROM A POCKET ON THE INSIDE OF HIS PANTS...


AND, AFTER FEELING THAT THE TIME IS RIGHT, HE OPENS THE LOCK AND SWINGS THE DOOR TO HIS CAGE OPEN...

THEN FREES THE KING, AND HIS BODY GUARD,  THEN THE KING SAYS, "I HAVE A DAUGHTER HERE, TOO!"

SO HE LOOKS AROUND AND FINALLY FINDS AND FREES THE WOMAN, AND AS SHE EXITS HER CAGE, SHE GIVES HSR A CLOSE "THANK YOU!"...


THEN, AFTER HAVING BEEN IN THAT SAME DUNGEON THERE SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE, HE SLIDES A CRATE OF RUM OVER TO EXPOSE A LITTLE-KNOWN, RUG-COVERED GET-AWAY HOLE, WHICH THE FOUR OF THEM HURRIEDLY GO DOWN INTO...

BUT, BEFORE THEY LEAVE ALL THE WAY, HSR REACHES BACK UP FROM THE HOLE AND SLIDES THE RUM CRATE AND RUG BACK OVER THE HOLE, THEN THEY ALL SNEAK OUT ALL THE WAY TO THE WATER, AND SWIM A WAYS AROUND TO HSR'S WAITING SHIP...



AND THEN HSR HELPS THE THREE OTHERS ENTER THE FAR SIDE OF THE SHIP UNNOTICED THROUGH A SECRET DOOR ABOVE THE WATER LINE...

BUT HSR  IS QUICKLY FATIGUING AND TUCKERING OUT AND...OH, NO!...

...SOMETHING GRABS HIS ANKLE AND STARTS TO PULL HSR UNDER...

IT'S AN OCTOPUS...



THREATENING TO DROWN HIM...

SO, TO THE RESCUE IS...THE MERMAID...SHE MAKES THE OCTOPUS LET GO...

AND SHE BRINGS HSR UP TO THE SURFACE, WHERE HE GASPS AND BREATHES IN SOME BADLY NEEDED AIR!...HIP HIP HOORAY!

LASTLY, HSR CLIMBS ON BOARD, BUT BEFORE CLOSING THE DOOR, THE MERMAID ASKS, 



..." DO YOU HAVE...THE SINGING CROSS...?

AND HSR SAYS, "I BURIED IT ON PARROT ISLAND AND I"M GOING THERE RIGHT AFTER DROPPING OFF THE KING AND THE OTHERS, WHO WILL PAY ME AND MY MEN A HANDSOME REWARD...



...THEN HE SEALS HIS PROMISE WITH THE MERMAID...



...BEFORE THE SHIP SECRETLY SAILS AWAY...



...INTO THE SUNSET!
                                                                                                      Back to Love Toothbrush®                                                    

  












"God, family, self, and teeth--that's all we've got!"











Hey!...

Here's the dude that created the Love ToothBrush!...

...Good Ol' Dr. Winge, baby!..



He just happens to be, after extensive database searches not confirming otherwise, the first black guy in the U. S. to receive a patent on a toothbrush!

Who knew from his years as a little tyke on San Pedro Street and 116th Street in Watts, that he would eventually go on to USC Dental School and make some good history!...and write this blog!


We all want peace in our lives...and beauty...and love...

...like the ocean...



..with it's infinitely-wide open arms!...

And the Love ToothBrush that Dr. Winge produces, freely welcomes all of the world's citizens in the same way!


How, you ask? By creating, espousing, living, and showing...love!...

That's why he named the brush the Love ToothBrush®...because Love conquers all...including plaque!

Dr. Winge wants to courageously meet and exceed your challenging and important dental needs and demands...in a clinically clean fashion!... 



The Virgin Pacific Blue Series 1 embodiment performs like a whole churning ocean in your mouth...


...for a superbly-and-splashfully-clean, and a pure, nothing-left-behind feeling!

Ready for you now, the surgically-precise, under-the-gums side...


...and a wider, more-muscular side to admirably brush away tough enamel stains...


...both merge to give an attractive hour glass shape!...



Awarded a patent November 7, 1995...





after many months going over design choices, legal nit-picking, and construction refinement, Winge... 


calls this milestone effort to ramp up and penetrate the highly competitive toothbrush market, and organically grow an enlightened, loyal, and repeat consumer base, a valuable lesson on sophisticating oneself to get the word out to the world. 

Dr. Winge admits that he developed the Winge Bounce Toothbrush technique in 1999 specifically for the Love ToothBrush®, which allows the user to experience an enhanced methodology of the Winge Bounce called the Winge Fireworks toothbrushing style that cannot be experienced with a single-sided toothbrush.


Winge addresses the benefits of his Love ToothBrush®, and many other oral health issues on this Hollywood Smiles Report dental drama and adventure blog.

As the first American Black Man to invent a unique and “non-obviously improved” toothbrush, and take it to global markets, he says that the significance of this fact is not lost on him, and he implores his young, self-motivated, adventure-seeking patients to "meditatively place" themselves in an “inventor’s mindset,”


and to conscientiously proceed in their lives in such a way as to examine the machines, processes, and thinking patterns that they see and use in their daily lives,


 and try to improve upon them!”

He adds that, “The human mind is so wonderful and multidimensionally deep that, I guarantee you, we will never run out of things to improve and invent, as long as we remain a vibrant and forward-thinking species!”

Winge closes by adding,"Once you try a toothbrush in stereo, you may not want to go back to mono!"






May you have many…I am thankful for all of the blessings bestowed upon me, and seek forgiveness for all of my transgressions!...live every second with vigor and incisive clarity!...share your wisdom, knowledge, and resources to make our global collective more strong and stable...smiles!
