An oral hygiene implement is provided. The oral hygiene implement includes a housing; a movably mounted functional element; a fixation element that is secured at the housing and that essentially locks the functional element at the housing; and an axle that is supported by the fixation element. The functional element is arranged for movement around the axle and the fixation element extends through a cut-out or recess provided in a carrier element of the functional element, such that pulling the functional element out of the housing along the longitudinal axle extension direction is inhibited.
