Bristle Toothbrush

The bristle toothbrush was one of China's greatest creation, many people did not know what a bristle toothbrush was until they actually knew what it was used for. 

The bristle toothbrush was found during 1498 B.C, many Chinese described it as a cattle-bones handle with pig hair bristles. There were more than one bristle toothbrush, there was a porcupine's quills, bird feathers, and wooden thorns. 

The bristle toothbrush was so popular even the Europeans used it. Usually the Europeans would use a cloth and baking soda and rubbed their teeth on it. The bristle toothbrush was something where the people who had very bad teeth could have something to clean they're bad teeth. 
The bristle toothbrush has changed China because many people lost their teeth and couldn't eat anything. The bristle toothbrush was a branch with tiny branches on the tip. 
The bristle toothbrush had a major impact in China. A few people still used it today also.
