<p>An oral care kit comprising an oral care implement and a dispenser. In one aspect, the invention can be an oral care kit comprising at least one toothbrush and a dispenser. The dispenser (300) comprises a housing (309) having an internal chamber (321) containing a plurality of capsules (310) containing an oral care material; a dispensing conduit (322) extending from the internal chamber to an exterior of the dispenser; a valve (325) positioned in the dispensing conduit and biased into a sealed state that prevents moisture from entering the internal chamber; and a dispensing subassembly (302, 315, 316, 317) configured to dispense one of the capsules from the internal chamber through the valve. The valve is forced into an open state that allows the one capsule to pass therethrough when the one capsule is subjected to a dispensing force imparted by the dispensing subassembly and automatically returns to the sealed state after the one capsule passes therethrough.</p> |
