Residue under toothbrushes is toothpaste and water that solidify over time. Also, if the toothbrush is not dried properly after use, mold growth can be created more easily. This can lead to a buildup of bacteria, which can be harmful to your health. To prevent the buildup of residue and mold on your bathroom counter, some helpful tips can be used.

How to clean this dirty gunk

make sure that your toothbrush is rinsed thoroughly after each use to eliminate any leftover toothpaste and water. This will also help to remove any bacteria that may have accumulated on the brush. Then, shake off any excess water and store your toothbrush in an upright position to allow it to air dry. The base of your toothbrush can also be wiped with a dry cloth to remove any exta water.

Note that while some electric toothbrushes come with a charging base, its best to charge the toothbrush separately from the base. This prevents the buildup of residue and mold on the charging base and ensures that the toothbrush is kept dry.

Another tip to keep in mind is to replace your brush head regularly. Over time, the bristles on the brush head become frayed and worn out, making it harder at cleaning your teeth. This can also lead to a buildup of bacteria on the brush head.

by following these easy steps, you can maintain your electric toothbrush in a clean condition and prevent the buildup of gunk and mold on your bathroom counter. So next time you brush your teeth, keep in mind to rinse and dry your toothbrush correctly to keep it in good shape.
