Autoloading toothbrush   (+5, -3)  [vote for, against]
Toothpaste in toothbrush handle, squeeze trigger on handle to load bristles

Have toothpaste in a toothbrush handle, and be able to squeeze the toothpaste from the handle up into the bristles.

Would make for a convienent disposible travel/camping model instead of having to buy them seperate (and ruining your regular brush).

Has a certain gadget factor, and they are recomending more turnover in toothbrushs anyhow.

Maybe Package it with a auto-lubeing razor.

Seems to me this has been baked, but I can't recall exactly. I think you squeeze on the handle, and it comes up from within the bristles. It was designed to be a disposable travel model.

If it isn't baked, it's a good idea!

A toothbrush, a toothpaste tube, and a little cunningly applied duct tape.

It doesn't sound sanitary for multiple uses... how would you wash it?

Remember those playdough haircut kits. The same thing only with toothpaste. Although this will yield a less than firm bristle. Perhaps only appropriate for neonates, those who lost their teeth in traffic accidents, or those of a more geriatric persuasion.
