Only works if you actually have a dishwasher. LOL I have been spraying the toothbrush with EIS after every brushing, I spray my razor too. I saturate it and then put it in the holder inside the cabinet. I soak my TMJD splint in 3% H2O2.
I am open to learning if there is a better way. I tried putting some H2O2 in EIS last night. It was clear to start and stayed clear but I noticed a lot more large bits of things floating around in it when I got up this morning. I didn't like the look of that. Ideas?
