At this time, the indentation portion 14 between the first and second brushes 12 and 13 is produced by adjusting the interval according to the adult and children, and adjusts the softness of the bristles from children to adults It is available.

The bristles 11 are provided on the first and second brushes 12 and 13 so as to face each other, and are bent to maintain an appropriate angle downward from the central area to the other end thereof, so that both sides and upper surfaces of the teeth are simultaneously curved. You can wipe it.

That is, one end portion is maintained on a straight line to the center region on the first and second brushes 12 and 13, and is bent downward to the other end portion around the center region.

On the other hand, with the interdental toothbrush withdrawal means (A) to the area of the head portion 10 and the handle portion 20 is to withdraw the toothbrush during use, and to be stored when not in use.

The interdental toothbrush withdrawal means (A) and the guide hole 30 formed through the handle portion 20; A sliding button 32 inserted into the guide hole 30 so as to be movable back and forth; One end is fixed to the sliding button 32, the other end is made up of the interdental toothbrush 40 provided to protrude to the outer surface of the first brush (12).

Guide protrusions 31 are formed on the inner circumferential surface of the guide hole 30, and sliding grooves 33 are formed at both ends of the sliding button 32, and are inserted into the guide protrusions 31 so as to be movable. And, the lower portion of the sliding button 32 is provided with a fixing piece 34 is connected to the interdental toothbrush 40.

The interdental toothbrush 40 has a toothbrush rod 42 connected to the fixing piece 34; It consists of an interdental brush head 44 provided at the tip of the toothbrush stand 42.

The interdental toothbrush 40 is inserted into the tapping hole 50 formed between the handle portion 20 and the outer surface of the first brush 12 so as to be indentable, and the tapping hole 50 is the first brush 12. An outer portion 51 formed on the protruding ribs 60 formed integrally with the outer surface of the upper surface of the protruding ribs 60 and having the bristle receiving portion 51a formed thereon; It consists of the inner part 52 formed in communication with the outer part 51 and the guide hole 30.

At this time, the toothbrush rod 42 of the interdental toothbrush 40 is made of a flexible material itself so that the inside of the haunting hole 50 can be freely moved during the operation of the sliding button 32.

On the other hand, by inserting the rubber stopper 70 from the outside in the bristle hole accommodating portion (51a) of the haunting hole 51 to block the inflow of foreign matter.

In addition, instead of the interdental toothbrush in the interdental toothbrush withdrawal means (A), the dental floss may be raised and used outside.

And, the contents shown in Figure 8 shows another embodiment shown in Figures 1 to 6, which is made of the same structure as the toothbrush provided with the interdental toothbrush shown in Figures 1 to 6, but with the bristles The structure of the head 10 is made different.

That is, the head 10 includes a third, fourth brushes 80, 81 having corresponding bristles 83 thereon; The third and fourth brushes 80 and 81 are elastically provided such that the concave portions 84 at appropriate intervals are formed, and are formed of a horizontal brush 86 provided with bristles 83 downward.

At this time, the concave portion 84 between the third and fourth brushes 80 and 81 and the horizontal brush 86 is produced by adjusting the interval according to the adult and children. In addition, the third and fourth brushes 80 and 81 and the horizontal brush 86 are provided with their own elastic force, so that the indentation portion 84 is opened and broken, so that the toothbrush work is easy.
