Toothbrush Cases
Toothbrush cases provide a safe place to store your toothbrush for travel and offer an alternative from storing it uncovered in your medicine cabinet or on the counter. When shopping online at CVS, you can easily find what you need.
What Is a Toothbrush Case?
A toothbrush case is a small plastic container that fits over the bristles of your toothbrush and snaps into place. They come in a range of colors and may even come in a larger container to cover the whole toothbrush. Some cases are large enough to store several brushes at the same time, and some have covers that can serve as a drinking cup or a rinse cup for using mouthwash.
What Are the Benefits of a Toothbrush Case?
These cases protect the bristles from damage, and travel toothbrush cases can keep your brush clean when packed in your suitcase, makeup bag or travel kit. They're lightweight, so they won’t weigh down your bag, and because they come in different colors, each member of the family can choose their favorite to avoid confusion.
How Do You Clean a Toothbrush Case?
Because toothbrush cases are normally made from hard plastic, they're relatively easy to keep clean. It’s important to clean the case frequently to prevent mold and bacteria from building up. Rinse the case daily with warm water and slide a paper towel down the inside to dry it out. For buildup, use a small amount of dish detergent and a paper towel to scrub the inside walls. Be sure to rinse the container completely. Allow the container to dry fully before storing your toothbrush. While it’s always best to place your toothbrush in the open where it can dry out, sometimes it may be more sanitary to use a case.
How Do You Clean a Travel Toothbrush Case?
A travel toothbrush case should be cleaned in the same manner as a daily toothbrush holder. Some travel cases feature active vapors that fight against bacterial buildup to help keep your toothbrush clean, which make them easier to keep sanitary. Along with your toothbrush and replacement toothbrush heads, it’s important to replace your travel case every three months if you use it frequently. Store them alongside your travel size personal care items.
