Toothbrush Animation

[blank-]

Hi,
Basically it is a toothbrush animation which is supposed to show brushing actiion on the teeth. The contact point of the bristles on the teeth have to be shown realistically which is beyond the scope of a normal bend animation.
Really appreceating any help.

There's alot of different ways to do this.. a few ways that come to mind are to use fur and have it collide with the teeth.

Another way is to draw a curve across the teeth as a guide and then have the bristles controlled by IK's whose handles are constrained to the previously mentioned curve.
