Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a toothbrush with thin and tapered bristles made from both natural and synthetic fibers. This brush design allows for gentle and comfortable brushing of dental plaque from the teeth and gums. Additionally, a tongue cleaner can be included to keep the tongue clean.

Problems solved by technology
