Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . An apparatus, comprising:
 an elongated member comprising a head with bristles; and   a body comprising a cover with a plurality of slots, each of the plurality of slots containing a diamond-like element.   
     
     
         2 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein each diamond-like element is ultrasonically sealed into each of the plurality of slots. 
     
     
         3 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the cover is a replaceable cover with a plurality of diamond-like elements. 
     
     
         4 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the body of the apparatus further comprises a plurality of slots, each of the slots containing an ultrasonically sealed diamond-like element. 
     
     
         5 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the body comprises a button configured to activate audio stored in memory of the apparatus for a predefined period of time. 
     
     
         6 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the body comprises a button configured to activate a plurality of light emitting devices to create an illuminating effect through each diamond-like element for a predefined period of time. 
     
     
         7 . The apparatus of  claim 6 , wherein the body comprises a transparent cover configured to allow light to pass through each diamond-like element for the predefined period of time. 
     
     
         8 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a base configured to hold the apparatus in an upright manner, reducing a number of microbes that contact the bristles of the apparatus.   
     
     
         9 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of slots comprises a locking mechanism configured to contract when the diamond-like element is inserted in a slot, and configured to secure the diamond-like element in the slot. 
     
     
         10 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of slots comprises a locking mechanism configured to latch into a rivet of the diamond-like element when the diamond-like element is inserted into a slot. 
     
     
         11 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a second cover comprising a plurality of slots configured to be placed on the first cover, and configured to secure each diamond-like element to the first cover.   
     
     
         12 . An apparatus, comprising:
 an elongated member comprising a head with bristles; and   a body comprising a cover with a plurality of slots, each of the plurality of slots containing an ultrasonically sealed diamond-like element.   
     
     
         13 . The apparatus of  claim 12 , wherein the cover is a replaceable cover. 
     
     
         14 . The apparatus of  claim 12 , wherein the body, the cover, and the elongated member of the apparatus are transparent. 
     
     
         15 . The apparatus of  claim 12 , wherein the body comprises a button configured to activate audio stored in memory of the apparatus for a predefined period of time. 
     
     
         16 . The apparatus of  claim 12 , wherein the body comprises a button configured to activate a plurality of light emitting devices to create an illuminating effect through each diamond-like element for a predefined period of time. 
     
     
         17 . The apparatus of  claim 12 , further comprising:
 a base configured to hold the apparatus in an upright manner, reducing a number of microbes that contact the bristles of the apparatus.   
     
     
         18 . A method, comprising:
 creating, by a molding machine, a cover comprising a plurality of slots; and   ultrasonically sealing, by an ultrasonic machine, a plurality of diamond-like elements into the plurality of slots.
