VII. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

It was May of 1991 when I was joking around with a friend, at his mom's dinner table, saying that he had everything of Michael Jordans but a toothbrush. That's when I thought why not mold the whole handle to look like a famous athlete instead of having a sticker of cartoon characters on the handle.


VII. BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

Molding the handle of a toothbrush to look like your favorite sports athlete will definitely encourage children and young adults to practice oral hygiene regularly. Young people look up to famous athletes as role models.
