Roman toothbrush
#1
Is there any recording whether Romans used a special implement to brush their teeth with ?

I have heard of irinium perfume mouthwash and there are references to toothpowders and toothpicks. I was wondering if there is any reference to a 'brush' or anything similar to a miswak (which is used by many Muslims)
