Abstract (en)

A toothbrush comprises a head part; at least one carrier element connected to the head part, top surface(s) of the carrier element defining a front surface of the head part, and the carrier element having a rear surface; and cutouts through which bristle filaments are guided and, for fastening on the carrier element, are melted by their rear ends. A toothbrush comprises a head part (1); at least one carrier element (2) connected to the head part, top surface(s) of the carrier element defining a front surface (5) of the head part, and the carrier element having a rear surface; and cutouts (6) through which bristle filaments (3) are guided and, for fastening on the carrier element, are melted by their rear ends. The front surface has a non-planar three-dimensional configuration and is capable of assuming such a configuration during intended use. An independent claim is also included for a process for producing a toothbrush, comprising guiding the bristle filaments through the cutouts in the carrier element and connecting the bristle filaments to the carrier element by melting rear ends of the bristle filaments using a hot die; connecting the carrier element to the head part such that the front surface has a non-planar three dimensional configuration and is capable of assuming such a configuration during intended use.
