ABSTRACT:
Devices that serve to sanitize and clean toothbrushes while storing them between brushing use comprise an elongated, tubular container having a necked-down section positioned between its lower, closed end and the upper, open end. The lumen of the container is larger than the width of the bristled portion of toothbrushes while the lumen of the necked-down section is slightly less than such width so that bristles of a toothbrush are flexed when it is inserted into or withdrawn from the container.
Holders for the containers together with flexible retainers that cooperate with the necked-down section lock the containers in the holders and there are cover elements to close the open ends of the containers when toothbrushes are stored therein.
