A brush with genius

By Barry Fox

13 June 1998

Michael Sotirakis of Ilford in Essex hopes he is first with a simple idea to
improve the common toothbrush (GB 2 317 330). The brush has two heads at each
end of the stem, and on opposite sides. One brush head is fixed and of medium
texture. The other head is removable and can be chosen from a variety of hard,
soft and shaped designs. This way, everyone can tailor their own toothbrush to
their particular teeth and gums.
