One end of the first toothbrush is mashed with sticks or sticks to create a wider, cleaner surface. Chinese claim the first bristle toothbrush. Europe adopted a mane brush in the 17th century, and many dentists in the United States colonized advised their patients to use brushes. The first electric toothbrush went on sale in 1880, though the Swiss developed the first electric toothbrush after World War II. It was introduced in the United States around 1960. A year later, the first cordless model was developed and proved to be popular with both consumers and dentists.
Toothpaste is also one of the earliest ancient civilizations. Early toothpaste ingredients include powdered fruits, charred or ground shells, talc, honey and dried flowers. Less satisfying ingredients include mice, rabbit heads, lizard liver and urine. Despite the distinct taste of early toothpaste, recipes of ancient history and the Middle Ages continue to appear. Unfortunately, many of these toothpastes contain corrosive elements that dissolve enamel.
Toothpaste, as we know it, appeared in the 19th century and consisted of soap and chalk. In 1892, the first collapsible tube was the market leader and it was not until 1984 that a pump dispenser was introduced. In 1956, Procter & Gamble introduced Crest toothpaste with fluoride.
