Toothbrush with integrated winding key

A toothbrush comprising a handle portion and a brush head portion, said handle portion comprising an integrated extraction device,

• wherein said extraction device comprises at least one slit formed through said handle portion, said at least one slit longitudinally extending at least partway along said handle portion beginning at its distal end and being wide enough to fit a free end of a tube within said slit, said at least one slit having sufficient width to allow a midpoint of an extended or partially rolled tube to be gripped by a slit of said extraction device and moved towards an aperture of the tube, either by sliding said extraction device along the tube or by winding said extraction device towards the aperture, for extracting the contents of the tube,
• further comprising an attached tongue scraper, said tongue scraper comprising a thin, narrow strip of flexible resilient material with gripping means at the ends, whereby said gripping means are gripped by a portion of said handle portion split by said slit.

A toothbrush comprising a handle portion and a brush head portion, said handle portion comprising at least one slit formed into said handle portion and extending longitudinally at least partway along said handle portion beginning at its distal end and being wide enough to fit a free end of a tube within said slit, whereby said free end of a tube may be gripped by said handle portion and moved towards an aperture of the tube, either by sliding said handle portion along the tube or by winding said handle portion towards the aperture, for extracting the contents of the tube, said handle portion being removably attached to said brush head portion such that said handle portion, once it is detached from said brush head portion, is able to be attached to a mechanized device to manipulate it non-manually to extract the contents of the tube.

A toothbrush comprising a handle portion, a brush head portion and a midsection situated between said handle portion and said brush head portion,

• said handle portion comprising at least one slit formed into said handle portion and extending longitudinally at least partway along said handle portion beginning at its distal end and being wide enough to fit a free end of a tube within said slit, whereby said free end of a tube may be gripped by said handle portion and moved towards an aperture of the tube, either by sliding said handle portion along the tube or by winding said handle portion towards the aperture, for extracting the contents of the tube,
• said midsection having a first end and a second end and having a motorized mechanism within said midsection, said midsection first end being attached to said brush head portion for mechanized tooth-brushing movement of said brush head portion, and said midsection second end being attached to said handle portion for mechanized extraction movement of said handle portion to extract the contents of the tube.
