Have you gotten a new toothbrush within the last three months? If not, you should!!!

That little thing you put in your mouth two or three times a day to clean your teeth and help keep your gums nice and healthy can be COVERED with E. coli bacteria and staphylococci ("staph") bacteria. But you know what...your mouth isn't a sterile spot to begin with. 

Your body is FULL of bacteria...both good and bad, and your mouth is just one placethey reside. 

When you need to worry is when the bad bacteria numbers start increasing because that’s when you start having health issues like diarrhea and infections. 

Bacteria in your mouth can cause not only tooth decay, but bad breath and gum disease. Plaque...that stuff you’re attempting to prevent from taking residency on your teeth by brushing them, is bacteria...and your toothbrush is coming in contact with it every time you brush. 

Will all this bacteria make you sick? 

Probably not -- your body has an immune system to help fight off bad bacteria. But, there are some steps you can take to improve the condition of your toothbrush and help limit the amount of bacteria residing in it. 
♥ Rinse it well -- After each use, when you’re done brushing, be sure to rinse your toothbrush with tap water.
♥ Stand it up -- Store it upright in a holder rather than lying it in a dish or on the counter.
♥ Keep it dry -- Bacteria loves dampness. If you use a toothbrush cover, it can create a breeding ground for bacteria to grow. Make sure your toothbrush is dry before you put the cover on it.
♥ Be selfish...i.e. Don't share -- No matter how much you love your spouse or your siblings or your kids, don't ever use their toothbrush, don’t let them use yours, and don't let the toothbrushes come in contact with each other. When toothbrushes are shared or come in contact with others, germs from one person or one brush can quickly change residency.
♥ Look at the layout of your bathroom -- What is the location of your toilet in relation to where your toothbrush is kept? Flushing the toilet can send a spray of water and bacteria into the air and onto your toothbrush. (Info taken from Daily Challenge)
