To prevent germs from multiplying, it is important to periodically disinfect your toothbrush.
One procedure per week is enough.
How can you disinfect a toothbrush
The easiest way is to put the brush head down in a separate glass with an antibacterial rinse or a special disinfectant solution for brushes once a week for 10-15 minutes.
After each use, the bristles should be rinsed thoroughly under running water, carefully moving them apart.
It is best to pour boiling water over the bristles.
How to use a toothbrush
To disinfect a toothbrush, regular white vinegar is suitable, pour it into a glass, immerse the tooth bristles in it for half an hour.
