ABSTRACT:
The disinfecting toothbrush container for holding the toothbrush and disinfecting the bristles of the toothbrush comprises a container body having a plurality of container chambers formed by dividing the container body by a plurality of substantially vertical container chamber walls. The container chambers are divided transversely by a substantially transverse flexible rubber partition having a slit in each of the container chambers large enough for insertion of the toothbrush. The transverse flexible partition divides each container chamber into an upper portion containing air and a lower portion containing a disinfecting liquid. The lips of each of the slits are firm enough to prevent dirt and germs from the air from entering the disinfecting liquid and flexible enough to sneeze the disinfecting liquid from the bristles of the toothbrush when the toothbrush is drawn through the slit. A reusable lid which can provide a liquid-tight closure is also provided.
