Specialized "toothbrush/floss" holder (with retractable wall-mount)
Abstract
This holder was designed for more hygienic conditions for toothbrushes being stored and to promote the use and importance of flossing. By designing an outwardly “angled” egg-shaped and oval pattern for different sized holes, specifically for the use of various sizes and thicknesses, so that the residue of paste after brushing and rinsing drips off and away from the back of the toothbrush bristles. Unfortunately, flossing is often overlooked as a result of how it is stored in our cabinets, sinks, drawers, etc. and often knocked around. This is the primary reason this floss/toothbrush holder was designed. It is adaptable to most sizes and shapes of floss container styles. The holder can be retractable by two hidden T-slots and is compact in size with one spot faced thru hole, for steadying, and has designer plugs to cap it.
