 A plurality of microfiber element, wherein a first end of the plurality of microfiber element is coupled to a second end of the first element and a second end of the plurality of microfiber element is enabled to contact with user teeth wherein the first element provides rigidity and stability to the plurality of microfiber element for preventing the scattering of plurality of microfiber element, while cleansing the user teeth, and enables the second end of the plurality of microfiber element to penetrate in the space between the teeth efficiently. 
   
     
     
         22 . The head of the oral care implement of  claim 21 , wherein the base of the head is made up of at least one of elastomers, polypropylene, SAN and ABS. 
     
     
         23 . The head of the oral care implement of  claim 21 , wherein the base of the head comprises the plurality of holes so as to enable the coupling of the first end of the first element. 
     
     
         24 . The head of the oral care implement of  claim 21 , wherein the first element of the cleansing element is made up of at least one of thermoplastic elastomers, plastic, natural polyisoprene, 4-polyisoprene, synthetic polyisoprene and polybutadiene. 
     
     
         25 . The head of the oral care implement of  claim 21 , wherein the plurality of microfiber element of the cleansing element is made up of at least one of polyester, polyamides such as nylon, kevlar, nomex, trogamide, conjugation of polyester, polyamide and polypropylene. 
     
     
         26 . The head of the oral care implement of  claim 21 , wherein the base of the head is coupled to the first end of the first element by at least one of the bonding agent adhesive, glue, epoxy and binder using at least one method inserted, tagged, stapled, vulcanized or moulded together using pressure, temperature, chemistry or combination of these. 
     
     
         27 . The head of the oral care implement of  claim 21 , wherein the plurality of microfiber element is coupled to the first element by at least one of the bonding agent adhesive, glue, epoxy and binder using at least one of the method mounted, attached, bonded, inserted, tagged, stapled, vulcanized or moulded together. 
     
     
         28 . The head of the oral care implement of  claim 21 , wherein the shape of the first end of the plurality of microfiber element is different from the shape of the second end of the plurality of microfiber element, wherein the shape of the first end of the plurality of microfiber element is at least one of cylinder, cube, sphere, square and the shape of the second end of the plurality of microfiber element is at least one of cylinder, cube, sphere, triangular prism, hexagonal prism, dome and square. 
     
     
         29 . The head of the oral care implement of  claim 21 , wherein the first element enables the second end of the second element to penetrate deeper in the space between the teeth efficiently. 
     
     
         30 . The method of assembling components of a head of an oral care implement, the method comprises:
 Coupling a first end of a first element to a base of the head;   Coupling a first end of plurality of microfiber element to a second end of the first element, thereby enabling the second end of the plurality of microfiber element to contact user teeth;   Wherein the first element provides rigidity and stability to the plurality of microfiber element for preventing the scattering of plurality of microfiber element, while cleansing the user teeth, and enables the second end of the plurality of microfiber element to penetrate in the space between the teeth efficiently.   
     
     
         31 . The method of  claim 30 , wherein the base of the head is made up of at least one of elastomers, polypropylene, SAN and ABS. 
     
     
         32 . The method of  claim 30 , wherein the base of the head comprises the plurality of holes so as to enable the coupling of the first end of the first element. 
     
     
         33 . The method of  claim 30 , wherein the first element of the cleansing element is made up of at least one of thermoplastic elastomers, plastic, natural polyisoprene, 4-polyisoprene, synthetic polyisoprene and polybutadiene. 
     
     
         34 . The method of  claim 30 , wherein the plurality of microfiber element of the cleansing element is made up of at least one of polyester, polyamides such as nylon, kevlar, nomex, trogamide, conjugation of polyester, polyamide and polypropylene. 
     
     
         35 . The method of  claim 30 , wherein the base of the head is coupled to the first end of the first element by at least one of the bonding agent adhesive, glue, epoxy and binder using at least one method inserted, tagged, stapled, vulcanized or moulded together using pressure, temperature, chemistry or combination of these. 
     
     
         36 . The method of  claim 30 , wherein the plurality of microfiber element is coupled to the first element by at least one of the bonding agent adhesive, glue, epoxy and binder using at least one of the method mounted, attached, bonded, inserted, tagged, stapled, vulcanized or moulded together. 
     
     
         37 . The method of  claim 30  wherein the shape of the first end of the plurality of microfiber element is different from the shape of the second end of the plurality of microfiber element, wherein the shape of the first end of the plurality of microfiber element is at least one of cylinder, cube, sphere, square and the shape of the second end of the plurality of microfiber element is at least one of cylinder, cube, sphere, triangular prism, hexagonal prism, dome and square. 
     
     
         38 . The method of  claim 30 , wherein the first element enables the second end of the second element to penetrate deeper in the space between the teeth efficiently.
