After researching about water, we realized that some of our daily routines actually waste a lot of it, especially for hygienic purposes. We decided to modify the normal toothbrush by placing filters inside of it. Our invention allows us to limit not only the amount of water that is lost when the faucet is run but also, limit the amount of bacteria that is spread when people use contaminated water to brush their teeth, maximizing the amount of purified water available to impoverished regions.
