Would you share your partners toothbrush?

I think I have once or twice because I forgot my own toothbrush, of course this was before we started living together. Now I don't mind if my toothbrush says gets dirty and I need to throw it away, I might use my fiance's. I have in the past. I know people say "ew germs" but really I don't think it's much different then what some couples do anyway!

Lol, no way, that's personal hygiene and its very important to use our own stuff when it comes to this. Kissing is different, brushing is different too... In our home we see to it that all the toothbrushes come in different colors and shape so no switching will ever happen. Suppose you're bf has tonsilitis, you'll definitely catch it if you used his brush during that time. There are also rare cases that you'll have heart ailment for this, the infective endocarditis are related to dental procedures like brushing and dental cleaning... I had it, but I have congenital heart disease so when I have undergone dental cleaning last 2004, it kind of triggered the endocarditis and then I had open heart surgery, they replaced my mitral valve with metal... Dental hygiene is really important and it should be kept personal.

Hello! My husband and I use same toothbrush sometimes. He was the one there's nothing wrong with it. Besides you will wash it after using it. that's what he said. At first, I felt uncomfortable but he was the one who said that it is not a big of a deal. It was fine with me then. So, if I am taking a shower and feel like brushing my teeth while taking a shower I use his because he usually brush his teeth while taking a shower. And he use mine too sometimes. I don't find it gross because we both shared about everything

hahahahaa i had the same experience, i was like rushing one day and i accidentally grabbed my husband's toothbrush!! lol and i thought he would not notice, but he did lol because it was wet and i confessed on using it accidentally! lol

no were not sharing toothbrush to my partner because I have toothbrush and he had toothbrush too..

I was considering using my husbands toothbrush once after we had been married for a few years. He was really angry that I would even consider it. I didn't understand why. We kissed, we even had a baby so obviously we'd swapped more than just saliva but he still thought it was gross. Ironically, I began to notice that he wasn't as vigilant with his oral hygiene as I am. Who knows how many dentist visits I've saved myself?

Not a problem for me/us. When we are kissing I think my tongue goes to pretty much the same places as her toothbrush! haha And when I go down on her, my tongue is exploring places her tooth brush never goes! haha

I haven't done that in my life though I caught my brother using my toothbrush twice! I change my toothbrush that time, I was still younger during those times. I think there is nothing wrong if my bf will accidentally use my toothbrush since we love kissing each other. I even kept one of his used toothbrush as my souvenir

Perhaps, but not intentionally...I'll never share toothbrushes with anyone, not even with my husband. It's NOT sanitary, and I guess those who know better agree with me, although I admit there are times that just like you, I'd accidentally grab my son's or my husband's toothbrush and use it, especially during rush hours. But all of us in the house agree that our toothbrush, comb or even towels is to each his own, for health's sake.

i haven't thought about this and i will never do this in my life.how you manage this.Don't you know that you may be effected with diseases. I suggest you to stop using your partner's toothbrush.It is bad for your health

I and my husband do not share toothbrushes. I never want to share because I want that we have our own. He does not want either. We just want to be using our own toothbrush. But if there are situations that we only have one, then maybe we could share just for a day. Then he will buy his own or he will buy two, one for him and one for me. We respect those who share toothbrush but I think it will be easily worn out or tear easily. So better practice proper hygiene and do not share belongings for cleanliness purposes.

i cannot do that though we can have some sessions of kissing but i still can't share a toothbrush with her, what if she has some germs sticked to the brush and then i mistakenly trasnefr those into my mouth, it will be very disgusting, and dental professionals advise that one should put a toothbrush at least 6 feet away from a toilet flush so that particles migrating into the air during a flush will not tsick to the tooth brush

YUCK! Its really really disgusting.I cant even think about it.I feel like vomiting. Sorry but I cant think of it.Its really beyond me.I cant do it consciously but like you if i do it by mistake then i think there nothing i can do. But kissing is something different.I anyway cant relate both.

The only thing that I can say is this is one of the most disgusting thoughts ever!!!! Do you know all the bacteria on a tooth brush!!! ewwwww!

Hello young man, even I share toothpicks with friends ! We eat barbeque in one plate sharing and also rice in one palte we took with our hand together we share our juice and sometimes we feed each other and noit strange to me share one toothpick ofter having our lunch, and if I get any peace of fflash with this toothpicker I eat this left behind food at her teeth, it is delicious also, hahahaha so does the same. see that indicate that we love each other truely, thank for your interesting post hahahaha

I personally don't use my boyfriend's toothbrush. But I do know that people share toothbrushes. I personally wouldn't want anyone else to use my toothbrush. I actually keep a couple of extra cheap toothbrushes around in case I have a visitor that didn't bring their toothbrush with them.

Although there is A LOT of saliva interchange between a man and a woman I still feel the toothbrush is a whole different level. Lets say for example, gingivitis is actually contagious and other mouth ailments as well. I would not suggest sharing a toothbrush. To me it's kinda disgusting :)

i'd rather use my finger with toothpaste to clean my teeth and gargle with water with salt than use my husband's toothbrush. it's not hygienic.

I don't think I could ever use someone else's toothbrush. Just the thoughts of it grosses me out. lol Even if that other person is clean - I don't know, it's just the thought of that being in their mouth, cleaning out all THEIR food, plaque, grime..... haha. Now if I used it and didn't realize it, I probably wouldn't be grossed out until after the fact. You're right though - we do kiss. So what's the difference? haha

No, i can never share my toothbrush with anyone........
