Which plastic code is used depends on what plastic is used. Toothbrush handles are either polypropylene (code 5) or HDPE (code 2). However, the bristles are usually made of something else, e.g. nylon, so there is no appropriate code. Codes are used on items which can be recycled and you can't do that with mixed materials.
Using a biodegradable toothbrush for oral hygiene has benefits for the environment as it reduces plastic waste. Additionally, it can be better for your health as it may not contain harmful chemicals found in traditional plastic toothbrushes.
Toothbrushes are typically made from plastic with nylon bristles. The handle is commonly made from a type of plastic like polypropylene, while the bristles are typically made from nylon. Additional components such as rubber grips or metal parts may also be present in some toothbrush designs.
It is generally safe to use alcohol, such as vodka, to disinfect a toothbrush. There should not be any significant chemical reactions with the plastic handle or nylon bristles, but it may not be as effective as other disinfectants. It's important to thoroughly rinse the toothbrush before using it again.

An electric toothbrush typically uses around 1-2 watts of power while in use. This is a low power consumption compared to other household devices.

Yes ,the bristles and the handles of toothbrush are made of the same material that is nylon.
I'm assuming that they are attached on a small board. I would expect the plastic of the toothbrush to be put over the board and the piece over the board would have holes to allow the bristles to come through the plastic.

A plastic toothbrush can take hundreds of years to decompose, as it is not easily broken down by natural processes. Biodegradable toothbrushes made from materials like bamboo can decompose within a few months to a few years, depending on the specific material and conditions.
