Violight‘s unique Toothbrush Sanitizers use a germicidal UV bulb to eliminate 99.9% of all germs, the same technology used in hospitals. The entire process takes minutes and the bulb shuts off automatically when done. Although brushing your teeth may never be fun, maybe now sanitizing it can be something you look forward to each night. (Ok probably not, but anything that encourages dental care I’m all for..)
