Tips on toothbrush care

I remember hearing somewhere that one of the dirtiest and germiest places around is the human mouth. With that in mind, it is absolutely amazing to me that the toothbrush, which gets used to clean that grimy place every morning and every night, doesn't need any more attention than just a quick rinse under running water and a toss into the brush holder.

And really, it doesn't. You can check out this list of tips from the American Dental Association, but it basically says that if you don't share your toothbrush, do allow it to air dry thoroughly, and do replace it every three months, you're doing just fine.
