Heartlander · 80-89, M
use it to scrub/clean the grout between ceramic tiles.
Nebula · 41-45, F
@Heartlander I used to do that
BlueVeins · 22-25
Um, I'm already immune to the bacteria & viruses on it. I just continue using it like normal.
Nebula · 41-45, F
@BlueVeins yeah it just grosses me out, I will chop off a big chunk of my chapstick too

Look Nebs you're not meant to be sick on the toothbrush it's not what they're designed for.🤷😄

I run it under very hot water then wave it all around to get the germs off....🙄

My mom used to boil them...
@fun4us2b You have to wave it really hard and fast. Germs are obstinate.

I replace mine when they start to get "splayed" but also bleach regularly.
zorroo · 61-69, M

Captainjackass · 31-35, M
🤷🏻‍♂️ I’m a guy so we don’t pay attention to that stuff.
Captainjackass · 31-35, M
@Nebula 😮 get a trash bag! Drink lots of fluids and make one of your kids tale care of you!
Nebula · 41-45, F
@Captainjackass they aren't feeling good either, pretty sure they gave it to me.
Captainjackass · 31-35, M
@Nebula call in support! Maybe see if Hammy will help. 🙀

Throw it out and get a fresh one.
Nebula · 41-45, F
@SW-User yeah that's what I usually do
SW-User
Give it a swirly
Every trip to the dentist, I walk out w/ a kit: floss, toothpaste and a new toothbrush.
Nebula · 41-45, F
@soar2newhighs yeah but what if you get sick between?
Punxi · 31-35, F
My dental plan sends me a new one in the mail every three months.
Nebula · 41-45, F
@Punxi that's perfect
I soak it overnight in peroxide.
Coralmist · 41-45, F
I typically lather sudsy hand soap and thoroughly wash it, then rinse with hot water
ravenwind43 · 51-55, F
Throw it out and start fresh
Teslin · M
Boil it or throw it away.
Nebula · 41-45, F
@Teslin me too
I replace them periodically, so I definitely would after an illness.

Nebula · 41-45, F
@SW-User that's different
SW-User
@Nebula joking. I think just replacing it makes the most sense.
Nebula · 41-45, F
@SW-User yeah that's what I usually do, unless it's brand new
Call me weird , but i brush my teeth with it 😏
@Nebula hang on...do you mean sick as in vomit, or sick as in unwell?

Coz there's a difference 😅
Nebula · 41-45, F
@OogieBoogie full of germs sick
@Nebula ah, ok.
I just brush my teeth . Many germs/bacteria/viruses need an optimum environment to survive in.

And im dead certain my toothbrush isnt one of them ....i use hydrogen peroxide nearly everyday with my toothpaste.

Good luck to the germies that try to take up residence there😅
