A toothbrush includes a handle body made of a hard resin and a brush molded body (20) made of a soft resin and distal to the handle body. An insertion portion of the handle body protrudes toward the brush molded body, which has a head base portion (21), an insertion hole (22) into which the insertion portion is inserted and fitted, and a filament (23) that protrudes toward a front surface side of the head base portion. A maximum distance range between a base end of the filament and a back surface (21c) of the head base portion is 2.0 mm to 4.5 mm, and a ratio of the maximum length (L2) of the insertion hole to the maximum length (L1) of the head base portion is between 0.30 and 0.70.

A finger toothbrush for brushing the teeth of a patient comprises a soft, for example rubbery, flexible outer housing defining an elongated rubbery housing internal volume, with the flexible outer housing having an outside surface and an internal surface. The flexible outer housing has a proximal end and a distal end. A finger receiving member defines an internal volume for receiving a finger of an individual. The finger receiving member is more rigid than the soft flexible outer housing and is positioned within or incorporated into the outer housing layer, for example, as coil or wire. The finger receiving member is positioned with its outer surface being positioned radially inwardly from the outer surface of the rubbery flexible outer housing. The rubbery flexible outer housing is made of a material compressible enough to absorb the pressure of teeth biting down against the finger receiving member without the teeth being damaged. A cluster of scrubbing surfaces extend from the outer surface of the rubbery flexible outer housing.

A toothbrush includes a handle and a head mounted to the handle. In one aspect, the head may extend from a proximal end to a distal end along a longitudinal axis, the head having a base portion formed of a rigid plastic material and a flexible portion formed of an elastomeric material, a first longitudinal section of the flexible portion spaced apart from the base portion by a gap. The flexible portion of the head may have an upper surface and an opposing lower surface such that within the first longitudinal section of the flexible portion the upper surface and the lower surface are substantially planar and parallel to one another. Furthermore, tooth cleaning elements may be secured to the flexible portion of the head by in-molded technology to extend from the upper surface of the flexible portion

An interdental cleaning device (1) for being inserted into an interdental space to clean the interdental space includes a rod-shaped core portion (12); and a soft portion (20) being softer than the core portion (12) and covering the outer surface of at least a part of the core portion (12) including a core front end (P1) as the front end of the core portion (12), wherein the soft portion (20) has a partial length of 0.5 mm or more between the core front end (P1) and a soft front end (P2) as the front end of the soft portion (20).

A method of forming an oral care implement. The method may include providing a body having a base and a bridge extending from a distal end of the base, the bridge terminating in a free end, mounting a plurality of tooth cleaning elements to the bridge, bending the bridge toward a proximal end of the base, and coupling the free end of the bridge to a proximal end of the base, thereby forming a head of an oral care implement.

A toilet brush comprises a handle and a brush head. A backbone core is coupled to the handle. An inner support piece is further coupled to the backbone core and to the brush head. The handle further comprises an attachment area and the brush head further includes a scraping feature.

Provided is an interdental cleaning tool that can be smoothly inserted between back teeth. An interdental cleaning tool according to the present invention includes: a cleaning tool body that is made of a synthetic resin, and includes a grip portion that is capable of being gripped with fingers of a user and a shaft portion that extends in one direction from the grip portion; and a cleaning portion configured to clean between teeth, covering a leading end of the shaft portion, and made of an elastomer, wherein (angle b)/(angle a) is 0.82 or more, where the angle a is a rotational angle (degrees) when a torque value A is measured, the torque value A being a maximum torque value (N.Math.cm) when the grip portion is rotated at a rotational speed of 10 rpm about a position located 6 mm away from a leading end of the cleaning portion, and the angle b is a rotational angle (degrees) when a torque value B is measured, the torque value B being a maximum torque value (N.Math.cm) when the grip portion is rotated at a rotational speed of 10 rpm about a position located 10 mm away from the leading end of the cleaning portion.

A toothbrush includes an elongate body having a handle and a head formed with bristle assemblies each including elastic upper and lower boots on either side of an intermediate layer, an elastic collar extends through the intermediate layer from the lower boot to the upper boot, a tuft of bristles bound by a coupling, the tuft of bristles extends from the coupling in the lower boot through the collar and through the upper boot and therebeyond to a brushing extremity, the upper boot provides lateral elastic compliance between the upper boot and the tuft of bristles through the upper boot, the lower boot provides lateral elastic compliance between the lower boot and the coupling in the lower boot, and the intermediate layer pinches the collar against the tuft of bristles through the collar elastically retaining the tuft of bristles through the elastic collar to the elastic collar.

A toilet brush comprises a handle and a brush head. A backbone core is coupled to the handle. An inner support piece is further coupled to the backbone core and to the brush head. The handle further comprises an attachment area and the brush head further includes a scraping feature.

The brush for the application of fluid products, particularly for powdery, creamy, liquid products or the like, comprises a plurality of spreading elements to spread a fluid product on a work surface and having a first ending part associated with a support element and a second free ending part, opposite to the first ending part and adapted to take and apply the product, in which the support element is made of a flexible material.
