Abstract

The present invention enables a person to brush and floss his/her teeth using a single device. The present invention comprises a handle having two ends, a dental floss support near one end of the handle for holding dental floss for flossing teeth, and bristles near the other end of the handle for brushing teeth. The dental floss support is removable from the handle and can be secured onto the handle in a parallel position with the handle when not in use.

         5 . The teeth cleaning device of  claim 1  wherein said object is removable from said handle. 
     
     
         6 . The teeth cleaning device of  claim 1  wherein said handle has at least one recess near one end of the handle for holding said object upright. 
     
     
         7 . The teeth cleaning device of  claim 6  wherein the shape of the cross-section of said recess can be polygonal, or round, or crisscross. 
     
     
         8 . The teeth cleaning device of  claim 1  wherein said handle has at least one recess for holding said object to an about parallel position with the handle. 
     
     
         9 . The teeth cleaning device of  claim 1  wherein said handle has an extruded structure near one end of the handle. 
     
     
         10 . The teeth cleaning device of  claim 9  wherein said extruded structure comprises a rod in direct contact with said handle and a head on the top of the rod. 
     
     
         11 . A teeth cleaning device comprising a handle having two ends, an object having at least two arms near one end of the handle, and bristles near the other end of the handle. 
     
     
         12 . The teeth cleaning device of  claim 11  wherein said object has at least one recess at each distal end of said arms. 
     
     
         13 . The teeth cleaning device of  claim 11  wherein said object has an extruded structure at the bottom of the object, which comprises a rod in direct contact with the bottom of the object and a head on the top of the rod. 
     
     
         14 . The teeth cleaning device of  claim 13  wherein the shapes of the cross-section of said rod and said head can be polygon, or round, or crisscross. 
     
     
         15 . The teeth cleaning device of  claim 11  wherein said object is removable from said handle. 
     
     
         16 . The teeth cleaning device of  claim 11  wherein said handle has at least one recess at one end of the handle for holding said object upright. 
     
     
         17 . The teeth cleaning device of  claim 16  wherein the cross-section of said recess can be either polygonal, or round, or crisscross. 
     
     
         18 . The teeth cleaning device of  claim 11  wherein said handle has at least one recess for holding said object to an about parallel position with the handle. 
     
     
         19 . The teeth cleaning device of  claim 11  wherein said handle has an extruded structure near one end of the handle. 
     
     
         20 . The teeth cleaning device of  claim 19  wherein said extruded structure comprises a rod in direct contact with said handle and a head on the top of the rod.
