Customer Reviews of Germ Terminator Toothbrush Sanitizer
Customer Review: For clean toothbrushes and a healthier mouth...
Summary: 5 Stars
This one really works. I used to get sore throats when using a non-sterilized toothbrush. Used to re-infect myself with colds and bacterial infections. For longest time, had multiple (20-30) toothbrushes and sterilized in top rack basket in dishwasher with water heater on high temp. That worked but time consuming.
Now use Germ Terminator -- just as effective but takes less time and less water and less energy. For best results, use distilled water, but you can use tap too. If you use tap regularly you will need to watch for calcium build up like in coffee maker and run vinegar through it to get rid of calcium build up. I am able to sterilize my Braun electric toothbrush heads (which cost $10 each!) in this unit too besides regular toothbrushes. They fit in the little baskets.
This unit is very light so it will be good for traveling even though footprint not as small as UV travel sanitizers.
I love my steam sterilizer. I am going to buy a second one for traveling.
Why should you buy this unit instead of UV light sterilizer/sanitizer?
Most toothbrush sterilizers are UV light based. I did research on steam versus UV sterilization:
UV light is non-ionizing radiation. Good for destroying airborne organisms and organisms on exposed surfaces that UV light makes contact with. UV light has low penetrating power. Dust, soil, anything that shields organism from UV light will protect micro organism from sterilization. Must keep UV light bulb very clean (dust/soil on UV light will reduce effectiveness). Must regularly test UV light because they lose power to sterilize over time. Sterilization percentage for UV light: 99.95%. Sterilization percentage for Germ Terminator (tested results): 99.999999%
UV light causes sunburns. Think about how a hat or shirt or glass window will protect you from sunburns. UV cannot penetrate these.
For medical/dental tools, doctors use autoclaves which are steam based.
Don't leave home without your Germ Terminator!
Description of Germ Terminator Toothbrush Sanitizer
Research shows that germs can remain and breed on wet toothbrushes after brushing, potentially prolonging infections such as gum disease or sore throats. And, because airborne bacteria can move from toothbrush to toothbrush (and from other sources in the bathroom), opportunistic infections, like periodontal disease and common colds/flu, can easily be passed from one person to another when unsanitized toothbrushes are stored together. The Germ Terminator Toothbrush Sanitizer provides a clean, healthy toothbrush every time you brush your teeth. The Germ Terminator is the only toothbrush sanitizer to use natural steam and dry heat to kill greater than 99.9999% of germs on your toothbrush and store it in a completely germ-free environment between brushings. The Germ Terminator works with electric and manual toothbrushes. The product is FDA-cleared (510k-clearance) and is modeled after the steam device in dental offices to sterilize instruments. It can be used worldwide with the proper plug adapter (100-240V). UL Listed, Worldwide Safety Certifications.Oral Hygiene
