An oral care implement comprising: a handle extending along a longitudinal axis (A-A) from a distal end to a proximal end and having an outer surface , wherein the handle comprises a front surface and a rear surface that collectively form the outer surface of the handle ; a head coupled to the proximal end of the handle , the head having a front surface and a rear surface opposite the front surface ; a plurality of tooth cleaning elements extending from the front surface of the head ; a flexible support element coupled to the distal end of the handle ; wherein a reference plane (RP1) that is non-parallel to the longitudinal axis (A-A) of the handle contacts the outer surface of the handle without penetrating the outer surface of the handle and without intersecting the flexible support element ; wherein the reference plane (RP1) contacts the outer surface of the handle at a first point (P1) and a second point (P2), and a region of the outer surface of the handle located axially between the first and second points (P1, P2) faces the reference plane (RP1) without contacting the reference plane (RP1); wherein the reference plane (RP1) contacts and faces the rear surface of the handle ; wherein the reference plane (RP1) does not intersect the head or the tooth cleaning elements ; wherein the flexible support element extends from the distal end of the handle along the longitudinal axis (A-A), such that the longitudinal axis (A-A) of the handle is also the longitudinal axis (A-A) of the flexible support element , thus the longitudinal axis (A-A) of the handle extends through a center of the flexible support element ; and wherein the flexible support element can be suctioned to a surface to maintain the oral care implement in an orientation with the longitudinal axis (A-A) of the handle perpendicular to the surface. a handle extending along a longitudinal axis (A-A) from a distal end to a proximal end and having an outer surface , wherein the handle comprises a front surface and a rear surface that collectively form the outer surface of the handle ; a head coupled to the proximal end of the handle , the head having a front surface and a rear surface opposite the front surface ; a plurality of tooth cleaning elements extending from the front surface of the head ; a flexible support element coupled to the distal end of the handle ; wherein a reference plane (RP1) that is non-parallel to the longitudinal axis (A-A) of the handle contacts the outer surface of the handle without penetrating the outer surface of the handle and without intersecting the flexible support element ; wherein the reference plane (RP1) contacts the outer surface of the handle at a first point (P1) and a second point (P2), and a region of the outer surface of the handle located axially between the first and second points (P1, P2) faces the reference plane (RP1) without contacting the reference plane (RP1); wherein the reference plane (RP1) contacts and faces the rear surface of the handle ; wherein the reference plane (RP1) does not intersect the head or the tooth cleaning elements ; wherein the flexible support element extends from the distal end of the handle along the longitudinal axis (A-A), such that the longitudinal axis (A-A) of the handle is also the longitudinal axis (A-A) of the flexible support element , thus the longitudinal axis (A-A) of the handle extends through a center of the flexible support element ; and wherein the flexible support element can be suctioned to a surface to maintain the oral care implement in an orientation with the longitudinal axis (A-A) of the handle perpendicular to the surface. <EOS>
