Abstract:

A toothbrush holder supports one or more toothbrushes in an equilibrium position between a retention cavity in an inclined base wall and a corresponding recess in an edge of a top wall. The retention cavity is preferably a hole in the inclined base wall and the recess in the top wall is preferably arcuate. The top wall is supported by a rear wall between the inclined base wall and the top wall. Support legs extending from the back of the rear wall allow the holder to be freestanding. Attachment means on a vertical upper portion of the rear wall allow the holder to be secured to a wall. The walls of the holder can be made from a single sheet of material, such as acrylic sheet or metal sheet.
