Travel Toothbrush Guide

One of the most necessary items to bring on a trip has to be a toothbrush. Toothpaste used to be also one of the most brought items on a trip, but with the new airport regulations, only a small tube which has to be carried inside a clear plastic bag, is allowed on an airplane. Typical toothbrushes just thrown into a suitcase can end up getting dirty bristles, can take up more room, or simply be easily forgotten. One of the easiest items to forget when going on a trip is a simply toothbrush.

One way to make sure that you are well prepared is to get a designated travel toothbrush that remains in your bags so that this important item is not forgotten.

There are various types of travel toothbrushes.

Inverted Head Toothbrush

This brush is designed to save space. Basically the toothbrush is able to become inverted and the head of the toothbrush tucks right into the base of the toothbrush compacting it very well. One example of this kind of toothbrush is the OHSO Travel Toothbrush. This toothbrush looks sleek and even has a nice place to hold your toothpaste which of course is the correct size for bringing in an airplane.

Swivel Toothbrush

One great example of this type of travel toothbrush is the GoFresh Travel Flossing Toothbrush. This toothbrush swivels to create a full brush from a former tiny brush.

Normal Toothbrush with a Cover

Normal toothbrushes also make great travel brushes. Simply buy a toothbrush cap to keep it free from getting dirty inside your luggage. Toothbrush covers can be found at Walgreens and costs around 1.99 for a pack of four. Toothbrushes for covering the whole toothbrush can also be bought for around the same price as a cover for just the head of the toothbrush, this will keep the entire toothbrush enclosed and free from getting dirty.
