Abstract: Disclosed herein is a smart multi-mode dental cleaning device (100) that comprises a toothbrush handle (102) having an internal cavity for transmitting user-applied forces, a push-button assembly (104) for generating mechanical actuation signals, and a slider rail assembly (112) configured to convert the mechanical actuation signals into guided linear motion toward a brush head structure (118). The brush head structure (118) includes a fixed outer field of soft bristles (120), a unitufted cleaning element (122), and a polishing element (124) configured to selectively deployable for performing different cleaning operations. The brush head structure (118) further includes a cam-ramp elevation mechanism (126) configured to convert the guided linear motion into controlled vertical displacement for selectively activating cleaning modes. A spring mechanism (130) regulates motion and return movement, while a cam-lock interlocking unit (134) restricts simultaneous actuation and permits only one operational mode at a time
