Abstract
A toothbrush consists of a cylindrical brush handle forming a toothpaste receiver having toothpaste therein, a brush rod provided with brush bristles and a guide passage therein, a turning end cap formed with a threaded rod extending into the toothpaste receiver and a squeezing block threadingly engaging the threaded rod in the toothpaste receiver. When the end cap is turned, the squeezing block may be actuated to move forward or backward such that the toothpaste may be squeezed toward the brush rod to overflow over the brush bristles through the guide passage. By opening a seal lid of the turning end cap, a general toothpaste tube can be squeezed so that the toothpaste refills the toothpaste receiver during refilling.
