Is Your toothbrush clean? 


Flossable Toothbrush

Medical advice is to change toothbrushes every 3 months. However Manchester University* say toothbrushes build many million bacteria in this time. For vulnerable people this can potentially be a problem (if you have a major heart operation you may well be told to use disposable toothbrushes). But in any case, no one would
choose to put decomposing food debris in their mouth.

There are UV cleaners, disinfectants, boilers etc but they can't clean all the debris from the base. Can't do it easily yourself either, because the head must of necessity be small, so the bristle rows are too close together to get all the debris out. So hence the Flossable Toothbrush. Just pass your dental floss through the slots
to dislodge debris. If you want, slide in a slot cover after for further reassurance.

You floss your teeth. Why not your toothbrush?
Several million toothbrushes are sold each year. These slots add little to the costs, even with slide in slot covers and they aid your peace of mind.
