[0039] Brushing alone is often insufficient to thoroughly remove food debris and plaque from between teeth and below the gum line. Using plaque staining agents during brushing helps to color plaque, making it easier to identify and highlighting areas requiring focused cleaning. However, existing plaque detection methods (such as staining solutions or tablets) typically require additional steps and products, increasing user complexity and resulting in lower oral hygiene efficiency. To address these issues, this invention provides a multifunctional portable toothbrush that integrates plaque staining agents during brushing, optimizing the user's oral care routine and improving oral hygiene efficiency. The specific solution is as follows.

[0040] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 As shown, this utility model relates to a multifunctional portable toothbrush, including a brush head 1 and a handle 2. The brush head 1 is equipped with a nozzle 3, and the handle 2 is equipped with a liquid storage bottle 4, which is connected to the nozzle 3 via a pump body 6. The handle 2 also has a button 5 for activating the pump body 6.

[0041] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the liquid storage bottle 4 of this toothbrush is mainly used for the application of plaque staining agent. Before use, the plaque staining agent needs to be poured into the liquid storage bottle 4.

[0042] For example, users can use this toothbrush normally as needed. When users need to use plaque staining agent during brushing, they only need to press button 5. The pump body 6 will draw plaque staining agent from the storage bottle 4 through the tubing and spray it into the oral cavity through the nozzle 3. Through the integrated design with the toothbrush, this toothbrush can be used in conjunction with plaque staining agent during brushing, optimizing the user's oral care operation and improving the user's oral cleaning efficiency.

[0043] In one embodiment, the overall structure of the nozzle 3 is further refined, and a clearance hole 11 is provided on the brush head 1 for the nozzle 3 to be inserted and installed.

[0044] It should be noted that the clearance hole 11 allows for concealed installation and fixation of the nozzle 3, preventing the nozzle 3 from protruding from the brush head 1 and preventing the nozzle 3 from scratching the user during the brushing and cleaning process.

[0045] In this embodiment, even better, to optimize the ease of use of the nozzle 3, the clearance hole 11 is located on the side of the brush head 1 facing away from the bristles. When the plaque staining agent needs to be used, the user only needs to align the part of the brush head 1 facing away from the bristles with the area to be sprayed. This structure also prevents the bristles from affecting the smoothness of the plaque staining agent spraying.

[0046] Reference Figure 3 as well as Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment, the overall structure of the liquid storage bottle 4 is further refined, wherein both the liquid storage bottle 4 and the pump body 6 are located inside the brush handle 2.

[0047] This structure is also designed to conceal and secure the components, thus optimizing the overall appearance of the toothbrush.

[0048] Specifically, the mouth of the storage bottle 4 protrudes from the bottom of the brush handle 2, and the mouth is sealed by a screw cap 41. When the user needs to fill the plaque staining agent, they can do so by unscrewing the cap 41 that seals the mouth. This design facilitates user operation.

[0049] In this embodiment, a more preferable feature is that the bottom of the brush handle 2 is detachably connected to the housing 7, which covers the bottle opening. The housing 7 is used to cover the bottle opening, also to optimize the overall appearance of the toothbrush.

[0050] Even better, in order to facilitate users to use dental floss for oral care, in this embodiment, the inside of the box 7 is provided with a storage cavity 71 for storing dental floss.

[0051] Specifically, the box body 7 is equipped with a partition to separate the storage cavity 71 from the bottle opening, so as to prevent the bottle opening of the liquid storage bottle 4 from cleaning each other with the dental floss. In order to facilitate the removal of dental floss, one end of the box body 7 is connected to the brush handle 2, and the other end is detachably connected to the box cover 72.

[0052] In this embodiment, it is preferable that a shaft 8 for loading dental floss is provided within the receiving cavity 71. The structure of the shaft 8 facilitates the user's loading of dental floss; the floss can be simply wound onto the shaft 8.

[0053] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the shaft 8 is threadedly connected to the housing 7. Specifically, one end of the shaft 8 is threadedly connected to the housing cover 72.

[0054] The detachable threaded connection between the shaft 8 and the housing 7 facilitates the refilling of dental floss. After the dental floss is used up, the shaft 8 can be completely removed by rotating it to facilitate the winding and refilling of dental floss. Then, the shaft 8 with the dental floss wound can be reinstalled and fixed inside the housing 7.

[0055] Meanwhile, to ensure proper fixation of the free end of the dental floss, a rubber clamp 81 is provided at the end of the shaft 8 to clamp and fix the end of the dental floss. In addition, a blade is fixed to the inside of the cover 72 with screws for the user to cut the dental floss.

[0056] It should be noted that, in one embodiment, the snap-fit ​​connection between the lid 72 and the body 7, as well as the snap-fit ​​connection between the body 7 and the brush handle 2, uses the same snap-fit ​​structure. Specifically, a slot 21 is provided on the brush handle 2, and a protruding ball is provided within the slot 21. A card 9 protrudes from the end of the body 7, and a corresponding locking hole 91 is provided on the card 9. By inserting the card 9 into the slot 21, the protruding ball engages with the locking hole 91, thus achieving the snap-fit ​​detachable connection between the body 7 and the brush handle 2.

[0057] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and not to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
