As Keeping the toothbrush clean longer?

Here are 7 tips!

1️⃣ Once used it should be rinsed under running water and shaken vigorously To remove excess water between the bristles

2️⃣ Keep it vertically and never horizontally so that water does not stagnate in the head but slides down the handle

3️⃣ Keep it Separate from any other brushes Of other family members: the heads must not touch each other!

4️⃣ Do not cover the brush head with the toothbrush case but let it air dry; if it is covered, it remains moist and creates the right environment for the proliferation of fungi, germs and bacteria.

5️⃣ When we flush the toilet let's do it With the toilet lid down: it may sound absurd but by pulling the chain i bacteria from droppings Can disperse into the environment and... land on the toothbrush

6️⃣ Change toothbrush at least every 3 months

7️⃣ Change toothbrush If it is dirty or if we have just gone through a viral process
