This is apparently a contentious topic among my friends and I’d like to source some more data.

    That is something I had thought of when I was considering an electric toothbrush; why don’t the charging bases cradle the middle of the brush so it can lay on its side? It could fit in a drawer or a vanity that way, and wouldn’t risk becoming coated in dried saliva paste. Must be since it’s not as elegant or something.

    Anyway, I’m still using manual brushes (I know), but I both tap on the sink edge and use a thumb a few times across the bristles after a rinse to flick the water off. Not 100% effective, but it’s fine for the short lifespan of a manual brush.
