As a parent of active Bellingham children, I’m sure you’re always on the lookout for places where germs lurk, and you probably know that toothbrushes have the potential to grow a lot of bacteria. However, there are some simple rules you can follow in your Ferndale area home to keep your child’s toothbrush (and your kid’s mouth) as healthy as possible.
One of the best ways to limit bacterial growth on a toothbrush is to allow it to dry completely between uses. This is best done by storing the toothbrush in a toothbrush holder on the counter, not tucked away in a drawer where air flow is limited.
A toothbrush holder is superior to a cup because it’s important that neighboring toothbrushes don’t touch and share germs.
Air drying toothbrushes is easy when you purchase two for each child at your nearest Lynden drugstore. Teach your kids to alternate between the two so they each have more time to dry out all the way.
Toothbrushes should be replaced every three to four months, mainly because normal wear and tear will make them less effective at cleaning teeth. But, regardless of the age of the toothbrush, replace it after your child has a cold or other illness.
If you have any other questions about your child’s oral health, ask your Bellingham dentist, or speak to your pediatrician next time you take your child in for immunizations in Bellingham.
