Quantum mechanics explains how atoms, molecules, and other fundamental particles interact. Einstein's theory of general relativity, on the other hand, helps to explain how things work on a large scale. But there's a problem: these two branches of physics don't seem to fit together.

Around the 15th century, the first toothbrush with bristles arrived on the scene in China.

Bristled toothbrushes, on the other hand, were here to stay. Later types of bristles brushes would be constructed of bone, ivory, or other woods.
