A head for an oral-care implement, having an elongated mounting surface with an outer circumference, includes two outer rows of tufts extending from the mounting surface along the longitudinal axis in proximity to the outer circumference, and two inner rows of tufts extending from the mounting surface and arranged between and parallel to the outer rows. The tufts of the outer rows have a longitudinal extension and an elongated cross-sectional area perpendicular thereto. The elongated cross-sectional area has a longer axis and a shorter axis, wherein the longer axis defines an angle α of about 20-65 degrees relative to the longitudinal axis. The tufts of the outer rows are inclined relative to the mounting surface by an inclination angle (β) of about 65-80 degrees. The tufts of the inner rows are inclined relative to the mounting surface by an inclination angle (γ) of about 60-85 degrees.

An oral care implement comprises a head and a handle, the head being repeatedly attachable to and detachable from the handle. The head is made from a non-magnetic and/or non-ferromagnetic material, while the handle is at least partially made from a magnetic and/or ferromagnetic material.

A built-in toothpaste type toothbrush structure includes toothbrush casing, toothpaste inner tube, knob switch, toothpaste storage handle and pushing structure. The toothbrush casing includes a toothbrush head, an accommodating space, and an outlet and a socketing portion. The toothbrush casing is sheathed on the toothpaste inner tube and has a toothpaste channel inside, and the toothpaste storage handle is connected integrally with the toothpaste inner tube for storing toothpaste, and the pushing structure is installed in the toothpaste storage handle to push the toothpaste to the toothbrush head. Therefore, the knob switch can control the communication between the toothpaste inner tube and the toothbrush casing to avoid contaminating the toothpaste stored in the toothpaste inner tube, so that home and office users or students can carry and use the toothbrush for dental cleaning and oral hygiene conveniently.

Provided is a toothbrush including a handle, a head connected to the handle and including a first surface, a distal circumference provided at a front end of the first surface, a proximal circumference provided at a rear end of the first surface, a plurality of first cleaning elements provided at the front end of the first surface along the distal circumference, a plurality of second cleaning elements provided at the rear end of the first surface, and a tooth space corresponding to a space provided on the first surface between the first and second cleaning elements. According to the present invention, when a space between a tooth root surface and a gum, e.g., a periodontal pocket, is cleaned, pressing of bristles due to interference between the bristles and a tooth may be prevented and thus first cleaning elements may easily penetrate into the periodontal pocket.
