An inventor in Changsha, Hunan province, has patented a special "lazybones toothbrush".

People do not have to squeeze toothpaste when they use the special toothbrush that Long Mingfu invented.

Long, 31, started to work on the toothbrush seven years ago. He has refitted more than 10,000 toothbrushes in recent years before he invented the special toothbrush that contains toothpaste.

Long said he got inspiration from cigarette lighters.

Long believes his invention will be popular with consumers.
