A toothbrush with a fall prevention function is characterized in that, on the rear side at the tip of the handle opposite from the brush of a toothbrush which is generally used at present and shaped nearly straight, a tabular finger cover is provided in a manner not restricting movement of the fingers, and that the tabular finger cover has a length covering the forefinger to the little finger, a width having as much width as the widest part of the handle, and a thickness made thinner closer to the forefinger gripping the handle so as to possess elasticity.
