For every day cleaning keep the bristles under running water. With the help of your thumb press it back and forth through the bristles for few times. Now tap the bristles dry and keep it in the rack to dry. For cleaning to be done once a week take glass and fill 2 to 3 inches with hydrogen peroxide. Now dip the bristles of the brush in it. See to it the liquid in the glass do not touch the level of buttons that turn it on, if so, throw some of the liquid in the sink. Soak it for an hour. Remove it and rinse properly under running water and pat it dry.
You can use another alternative method to clean your toothbrush. In a glass put 2 to 3 inches of household bleach and soak the bristles in it for an hour. Remove the brush and rinse it under the running water for a minute. Hang upside down to dry. This type of cleaning should be done once in a month. |
