Benefits of technology

The present invention is a toothbrush that is smaller and easier to carry than traditional toothbrushes. This eco-friendly toothbrush can help save materials and reduce waste. The toothpaste can be filled into the handle, so guests don't need to carry toothpaste separately. This toothbrush is also extendable / retractable for different users' needs. Overall, this toothbrush makes environmental protection a trend for hotels and reduces costs for guests.

Problems solved by technology

Functionality of known toothbrushes are generally considered insufficient and carrying is also inconvenient.
In addition, manufacturing and use of such known toothbrushes are also not green at all.
Particularly, hotels often supply disposable toothbrushes and toothpaste to people staying in the hotels and the number of such toothbrushes is very huge, making it a tremendous waste.
This leads to a tremendous amount of garbage or wastes.
