One use toothbrush in restaurants
April 13, 2010 in Spotted Ideas
Everyone is told to wash their teeth after each meal, we tell little kids everyday got and brush your teeth.
But when they go to Mcdonalds or anywhere else no one does it…it’s not good for health and education. Furthermore when I eat food I would like to brush my teeth before I go out, even more if it’s full of garlic.
We should be able to find a why to give people the possibility to brush their teeth after their meal in a hygienic and low cost manner.
Do you have any ideas?
I remember a finger glove that you could put on your finger brush your teeth and then throw it away.

Do we really need more disposable plastic crap to fill the land fills and pollute the environment though? If they could be made from recycled or fully recyclable material , then possibly yes otherwise i reckon just get a breath mint or get one of those toothbrushes you can carry with you with the little toothpaste tubes . Like the ones you used to get in planes before the airlines went all cheapskate!

True it’s not very ecological

is there any plan that could be used as a tooth brush?
Some caveman’s might have already found something!

Yo yeah, in South America there are a couple branches of specific plants that Indians use to clean their teeth so that they remain strong, cavity free, and prevent mouth infections.
With this said, I am not sure that the “fresh-breath” factor is particularly important to the branch chewers…
It seems like you are more worried about having good breath rather than clean teeth? If so, this seems like a dead end idea UNLESS you can think of something other then mouthwash, chewing gum, breathmints, dental floss, toothpaste or mint strips…

Ancient traditional remedies
According to traditional Ayurvedic medicine, chewing areca nut and betel leaf is an excellent remedy against bad breath. In South Asia, it was a custom to chew areca or betel nut and betel leaf among lovers because of the breath-freshening and stimulant drug properties of the mixture. Both the nut and the leaf are mild stimulants and can be addictive with repeated use. The betel nut will also cause tooth decay and dye one’s teeth bright red when chewed.
