Today, both manual and electric toothbrushes come in many shapes and sizes and are typically made of plastic molded handles and nylon bristles. The most recent toothbrush models include handles that are straight, angled, curved, and contoured with grips and soft rubber areas to make them easier to hold and use.

My toothbrush looks kind of gross in those little cracks. Ew.
A really bad poem/public service announcement entitled:
It's bad to brush your teeth too hard.
Brush, brush, brush.
I've been brushing so long I wore my teeth down to nubs.
But I don't feel clean without extra scrubs.
Brush, brush, brush.
My gums are receding
But the brushing is succeeding
Not one single cavity in years
But I've got toothpaste coming out my ears
Brush, brush, brush.
My budget is blown
Toothbrush prices make me moan
Brush, brush, brush.
Foam always dripping down my chin
But this is one fight I will win
I'll give all I've got to give
So the evil bacteria don't live
Brush, brush, brush.
*ping* Done! Through my routine there is no rushing
Morning, noon, and night: 25 minutes hard brushing.
The toothbrush is an instrument consisting of a small brush on a handle used to clean teeth through tooth brushing. Toothpaste, often containing fluoride, is commonly added to a toothbrush to aid in cleaning. Toothbrushes are offered with varying textures of bristles, and come in many different sizes and forms. Most dentists recommend using a toothbrush labelled "Soft", since firmer bristled toothbrushes can damage tooth enamel and irritate gums as indicated by the American Dental Association.[citation needed] Toothbrushes are often made from synthetic fibers, although natural toothbrushes are also known in many parts of the world. The first commercial toothbrush was invented by Goldstein and Hautman in 1875.
A variety of oral hygiene measures have been used since before recorded history. This has been verified by various excavations done all over the world, in which chewsticks, tree twigs, bird feathers, animal bones and porcupine quills were recovered. The first modern idea of a toothbrush is believed to have been invented in China in the late 1400's by the Chinese,[1] which used the stiff hairs from a hog's neck, attached to a bamboo stick.
However, many other peoples used different forms of toothbrushes. Ancient Indian medicine has used the neem tree and its products to create toothbrushes and similar products for millennia. In the Muslim world, the miswak, or siwak, made from a twig or root with antiseptic properties is widely used. Rubbing baking soda or chalk against the teeth was also common. Chewing sticks were first made by primates.
A photo from 1899 showing the use of toothbrush.William Addis of England is credited with creating the first mass-produced toothbrush in 1780. In 1770 he had been placed in jail for causing a riot. While in prison, he decided that the method for teeth brushing of the time – rubbing a rag on one's teeth with soot and salt – could be improved. So he took a small animal bone, drilled small holes in it, obtained some bristles from a guard, tied them in tufts, then passed the bristles through the holes on the bone and glued them. He soon became very wealthy. He died in the year 1808 and left the business to his eldest son, William II.
The first patent for a toothbrush was by H. N. Wadsworth in 1850 in the United States, but mass production of the product in America only started in 1885. The rather advanced design had a bone handle with holes bored into it for the Siberian Boar hair bristles. Boar wasn't an ideal material; it retained bacteria, it didn't dry well, and the bristles would often fall out of the brush. It wasn't until World War II, however, that the concept of brushing teeth really caught on in the U.S., in part because it was part of American soldiers' regular daily duty to clean their teeth. It was a practice that they brought back to their home life after the conclusion of the war.[citation needed]
A child being shown how to use a toothbrush.Natural bristles (from animal hair) were replaced by synthetic fibers, usually nylon, by DuPont in 1938. The first nylon bristle toothbrush, made with nylon yarn, went on sale on February 24, 1938. The first electric toothbrush, the Broxodent, was introduced by the Bristol-Myers Company (now Bristol-Myers Squibb) at the centennial of the American Dental Association in 1959.
In January 2003, the toothbrush was selected as the number one invention Americans could not live without, beating out the automobile, computer, cell phone, and microwave oven, according to the Lemelson-MIT Invention Index.

Strobist info: Canon 580 EXII in an Apollo 28" softbox above and to the right, white card front left and low to bounce some light back onto the head of the toothbrush.
It may sound strange, but I imagined that the toothbrush was a model, so I really feathered the light so that the "body" of the toothbrush just sort of disappears, combined with a shallow depth of field I really wanted to emphasize the head of the toothbrush.

This is the extent of my Cancun prep. I might not look rockin' in a swimsuit, but my teeth will be GLOWING!
Also, after deliberating for 30 minutes in the toothbrush aisle (talk about overwhelming!) I settled on a flashy pink toothbrush, only to get home and find out it's the exact same toothbrush I already had. How do you use something 3 times a day and not recognize it in a store?
The hereios of the We're Here! group have paid a visit to the Self-Portrait With Moustache group today at the suggestion of Joyce Latham.
Stuck for an idea for your daily 365 shot? Try the hereios of the We're Here! group for inspiration :)
Week 24/52
This week’s theme for my 52 project is “Straight Out of Camera.” I usually shoot raw and process in Lightroom, although in general my adjustments are minor. For this shot, I wanted to use full manual controls. I also switched my SLR over to JPEG. I made sure to switch it back to RAW for future pics.
I’ve been a little low on inspiration lately and had trouble coming up with ideas for the shot. We’ve been having lots of rainy/cloudy days recently, so I stuck to something inside.
Muy importante.
I usually get something basic but with a toothpaste that protects and whitens (gotta' compensate for the red wine).
Floss is also important. Brand doesn't really matter, but tooth decay does, folks.
