The "Brush & Rinse" toothbrush 14 Aug 2007

Amron Experimental's "Brush & Rinse" toothbrush features a specially designed head that can redirect water from a faucet to your mouth for easy rinsing. As the designers put it:

"At this point, no one should be using disposable cups for rinsing after brushing. No one should have to wash a glass or cup everytime they rinse. No one should have to lap water from their hand. No one should be forced to slurp excess water from toothbrush bristles. Current methods of getting water into our mouths for rinsing after brushing are sloppy, create waste, and place unnecessary stress on our bodies. And, people love water fountains."

Hear, hear! Although we expect that you have to endure a few water-all-over-your-trousers incidents before you get used to it.

The "Brush & Rinse" toothbrush currently retails at $3 - but doesn't appear to be available from the Amron Experimental website itself. You can buy 1 of 27 original working prototypes for only $1,750 each though (Cheap at half the price!).
