Great idea but! Suppose one family member doesn’t remember what color their toothbrush is and accidently starts to use another family member’s toothbrush? Is everybody’s name on the basket that the toothbrush/toothpaste is in? When we pack for a trip, my husband always asks which cover is mine? I wrote our names on the outside so we’d know. I have no idea what color my toothbrush is right now. I keep mine in the bathroom that I use and he keeps his in the Master Bathroom.

I love love the organized baskets for the brushes and toothpaste. We only have one tube in each bathroom. But my kids would dig their own tube. Going to organize the dental hygiene drawer right away!

You’re right about bacteria!!! When people don’t put the lid down on the toilet, fecal bacteria shoot up 20 feet in the bathroom! I couldn’t believe it but it is a fact. So it is good to put that stuff in drawers :) AND to keep the lid closed… but we all know how likely that is to happen on a consistent basis LOL!

Is that tray made of heavy plastic or heavy glass?

The baskets in the drawer are exactly what my mom used for organizing our toothbrushes while we were growing up and now I do it too :)

Yes that is what I’ve always heard too and even when I had them out I kept caps on them for that reason.

They always say to keep your tooth brushes away because the toilet water spreads 6ft in every direction when its flushed

I also have a problem with unsanitary toothbrush storage. Keeping toothbrushes in an enclosed space like a drawer or cabinet is not a good idea either as the moist environment promotes growth of germs and bacteria. The American Dental Association recommends air drying toothbrushes. Please review the Drip & Dry ResidueFREE Toothbrush Organizer at http://www.dripanddry.com, which is the perfect solution to maintaining a sanitary and organized storage for your dental products.
