After having my teeth cleaned I purchased a new toothbrush. I was brushing my teeth three times a day. Within two weeks I required a new toothbrush. I neglected to write the item down on my shopping list. That evening when I went to brush my teeth I realized that I did not purchase a new one. I saw a packet of razor blades. The idea came to me to develop a similar system for replacing the head of the toothbrush. This way I would have a convenient way of changing my toothbrush without having to remember to purchase a new one.
Personal Oral Hygiene applications.
The Replacement Toothbrush System:
A new bristled toothbrush head can be exchanged for a used one conveniently to improve a persons oral hygiene practices. A pack of new bristled toothbrush head can be purchased and kept for ease of replacement.
I believe this revolutionary concept will allow for improved personal oral hygiene by conveniently providing a pack of replacement bristled toothbrush heads. Examples: Provided in Replacement Claim.
Creative marketing strategies may encourage usage of the system by children for improved oral hygiene practices.
