A toothbrush having two arms pivotally jointed with cleansing means at the other extremities of both arms. The jointed section comprises several methods for manipulating and indexing the arms relative to each other to permit brushing in various parts of the mouth. The jointed section is composed of bifurcated bridging members for one arm, and an accommodating bar at the other arm disposed to lie between the bridging members. The bridging members and bar are pivotally held together by a control pin which can be manipulated to permit one arm to move relative to the other. The bar and bridging members may be frictionally in contact with each other or can be connected thru gearing and socket devices each disposed to function through special control pins for causing the engagement and disengagement of the said gear and socket devices. Simple finger manipulation of the controlling pin causes selective indexing of the toothbrush arms relative to each other.
