Abstract
Pump toothbrush comprising a pump head, a refillable cartridge containing dentifrice material, an integrated dispensing platform and a disposable bristle head. The pump head includes an inlet connector for attaching the cartridge, a pumping chamber attached with an elastic compressible button, and a dispensing platform. The dispensing platform contains a flow channel and a self-sealing slit-spout to prevent drying of the dentifrice material at the spout. The slit spout opens and closes automatically when the compressible button is pressed and released. The bristle head, which is the disposable part of the pump toothbrush, is attached to the dispensing platform for structural support and receiving the dentifrice material from the slit spout. Gum-guard elements are optionally attached to the periphery of the dispensing platform for massaging gums.
