Nurse's Note: Toothbrushes

I worry about little things... I think I get it from my mom.  But today I implemented a basic Healthy Home 101 principle: Boiling the Toothbrushes. 

 

This is one I picked up from my mother actually, she often gathered up all our toothbrushes and gave them a steamy disinfecting bath, and I suppose the idea has stuck with me.  Simple and effective, and I'm pretty positive bedtime brushed teeth from a newly boiled toothbrush feel even cleaner!

 

 Some say why not just buy a new one?  I say come now, these ones have just barely been broken in!  Besides, the $1.50 savings is too worth it to me.  That money can buy us a chocolatey ice cream treat, 

which we will later brush off our teeth with our freshly boiled toothbrushes
