A single dose hygienic tooth whitener dispenser and applicator has a
chamber. The housing is a bottle having an upper end with a neck and
threads receiving a threaded sleeve. The sleeve includes a recess
receiving a sponge applicator having a bottom surface overlying an
upwardly facing opening of the chamber in the bottle. This opening is
initially covered by a hermetic seal. An over-cap includes a bottom
facing opening slidable over the sleeve and covers the applicator. Within
the over-cap, a pin extends downwardly. The pin has a pointed end facing
downward. When it is desired to use the inventive device to whiten the
user's teeth, the over-cap is pushed down until the pointed end of the
pin extends through the applicator and pierces the seal in the opening of
the bottle, whereupon tooth whitener may be dispensed and applied.
