Immunity management is important to prevent colds. Taking vitamins is helpful and it is important to keep your body clean. So we have to disinfect the toothbrush we use every day. I will let you know in detail how to disinfect your toothbrush.
You’ll usually keep your toothbrush in the bathroom. But the environment is very humid because of water use. These humid places are good for germs to reproduce. Also, after measuring the contamination level of the toothbrush used for more than 6 months, the figure was 10 times that of the toilet.
If you brush your teeth using this contaminated toothbrush, your tooth condition will worsen due to cavities, so you must disinfect your toothbrush.

Prepare a cup of warm water and melt 1 spoon of baking soda. Put the sterilized toothbrush in and leave it for 20 minutes. Wash your toothbrush thoroughly under running water, put it in a place where it is sunny and airy, and dry it perfectly.
