This innovative toothbrush holder will reduce your exposure to germs

Despite our centuries of advancements, there's ample evidence that sometimes humans just aren't very bright.

Just look at how most of us handle our toothbrush. After sweeping it around our mouths for two minutes, we rinse it, then usually deposit it into a janky glass or other holders, where all the still-congregated filth on our brushes ooze to the bottom. And if we share the bathroom with a partner, then we're all just co-mingling our bacteria in the bottom of that godforsaken holder.

Your toothbrush is home to more than 100 million bacteria, including E. coli, staph bacteria, and...umm...fecal germs. Yet, a far cleaner method for saving our brush from horrendous contamination is as simple as hanging it upside-down.

The SensiFresh Toothbrush Holder was successfully funded over 20 times its goal total on Kickstarter by rethinking toothbrush etiquette with some very clear, effective common sense.

Using a brush-like pattern of silicone heads in a protective holder, the SensiFresh grabs your toothbrush and holds it after use upside-down. Hanging like a bat, your brush not only drains and dries naturally, it never slides next to any partner brushes, avoiding the cross-contamination that helps bacteria spread like wildfire.

Simply remove the strip at the back of the holder and adhere the SensiFresh right to the wall of your bathroom or shower to reap immediate benefits from your smarter, cleaner sanitization method.

While the SensiFresh was initially designed for toothbrushes, its application extends even further to hold other bathroom hygiene products like a razor; or could even be used in a kitchen to grip cooking or even cleaning utensils.

You can even put your SensiFresh through a regular sterilization process of its own since it's microwave and dishwasher-safe.

Once you know your toothbrush is covered in fecal germs, that's a tough mental picture to shake, so take advantage of the simple physics and basic engineering and slice your contamination changes dramatically with a SensiFresh.

Right now, you can save almost 25 percent off the price of the SensiFresh Toothbrush Holder, a $30 value, now just $22.99.
