A tooth brush with a handle portion in the shape of a bent trapezoid and a head portion affixed thereto, and a latch mechanism to affix two items to each other. The tail region is affixed to one end of the main body region and angled upward with respect to the main body region. The “S”shaped region is affixed to the other end of the main body region with an upper and a lower curved indentation to form the “S”. The surfaces of the “S”shaped region that form the “S”are extensions of the top and bottom surfaces of the main body region. Finally, the head portion is affixed to the proximate end of the “S”shaped region, with the head portion having bristles affixed thereto in a selected pattern. The latching mechanism for affixing a first item to a second item includes a male latching portion affixed to the first item, and a cavity defined within the second item disposed to receive the male latching portion. The male latching portion includes a “U”shaped body with the top of each leg of the “ U”being affixed to, and extending outward from, the surface of the end of the first item that is to abut the surface of the end of the second item when the first item is affixed to the second item. The male latching portion also includes a spring finger having one end thereof affixed to the same surface to which the legs of the “U”shaped body are affixed and extends outward therefrom between the legs of the “U”shaped body. The spring finger has at its other end a locking tooth that extends outward from between the legs of the “U”shaped body to be captured within the cavity of the second item.
