1 – Using a Toothbrush Properly
Wash your hands before and after handling your toothbrush. This might seem obvious, but it’s super easy to forget to wash up when you’re in a hurry, especially in the morning.[1] To wash your hands thoroughly, wet your hands with water, then apply soap. Scrub your hands for 20 seconds before rinsing under a stream of water. Dry your hands on a clean towel.[2]
- Your hands can contain germs that might transfer to your toothbrush if you don’t wash them.
