ABSTRACT:
A toothbrush cleaning assembly includes a housing having a bottom wall and a peripheral wall that is attached to and extends upwardly from the bottom wall. An upper edge of the peripheral wall defines an opening extending into the housing. A cover is selectively positioned over the opening for selectively closing the opening. An ultra violet light emitter is mounted in the housing. A power supply is electrically coupled to the light emitter. A panel has a top side and a bottom side. The panel is removably positioned in the housing such that the bottom side abuts the bottom wall. The top side has a plurality of wells extending therein. Toothbrushes may be removably positioned in the wells and the light emitter turned on such that the toothbrushes are exposed to ultraviolet light.
