## Guides
- [Color Coding Brushes](https://sharing-a-bathroom-toothbrush-tips.pages.dev/color-coding-brushes/): Color coding brushes means giving each person a distinct brush color so nobody grabs the wrong one by accident.
- [Separate Holders: A Practical Guide](https://sharing-a-bathroom-toothbrush-tips.pages.dev/separate-holders/): Separate holders keep each brush apart and upright so heads do not touch and bristles can dry.
- [Why You Should Never Share a Brush](https://sharing-a-bathroom-toothbrush-tips.pages.dev/never-share-toothbrushes/): The standard advice is to never share toothbrushes, because a brush picks up saliva, bacteria and sometimes blood from its user.
- [Guest Toothbrush Etiquette](https://sharing-a-bathroom-toothbrush-tips.pages.dev/guest-toothbrush-etiquette/): Good guest toothbrush etiquette comes down to one rule: a guest never uses a brush that belongs to someone else, and a host never makes a guest feel awkward.
- [Kids' and Adults' Products](https://sharing-a-bathroom-toothbrush-tips.pages.dev/kids-and-adults-products/): Children and adults can share a bathroom, but the products on the shelf should not be interchangeable, because size, fluoride amounts and technique differ by.
