25-Toothbrushes

The next time you brush your teeth, take a closer look at your toothbrush. It』s simple. It』s easy to use. In fact, it』s perfect for removing the dirt on and between your teeth.

Before toothbrushes, people chewed on soft sticks. They even used feathers to pick their teeth after a good meal. Today, nearly everyone brushes their teeth with a toothbrush.

The Chinese invented the toothbrush about 600 years ago. They used hair from the Siberian wild pig to make the brush. Bamboo or bone was used for the handle.

European travelers brought toothbrushes back from China. But they did not like the feel of the big hairs. So they used horse or cow hairs instead.

In modern times, most toothbrushes are made of nylon. But the purpose is the same: to keep your teeth clean. That way, you will grow up with strong, healthy teeth.
