Why Flipper?

Most people store toothbrushes either in their bathroom cabinet or on a countertop.

Every time you flush, droplets of contaminated water spray into the air landing on bathroom surfaces and items on the countertop, such as toothbrushes.

Experts say that you should not let your toothbrush make contact with other toothbrushes. This is a quick and easy way of passing along the common cold and other diseases.

1. Flipper provides a great, secure storage solution away from harmful germs.The cap's side vents allow in just enough air flow for bristles to stay clean and dry.
2. Flippers are large enough to accommodate almost every type of toothbrush on the market including those with fat handles.
3. Its amazing suction-strength can even handle electric toothbrushes while staying gripped to a mirror, tile or most other smooth surfaces.
4. Unlike other toothbrush holders that are attached with permanent adhesive strips, the Flipper can be moved anywhere at any time.
5. Easily converts into a travel case to keep brushes safe from other toiletries and keeps your toothbrush away from harmful germs and dirt while traveling.

Flipper Meets ADA and CDC guidelines

1. Store the brush in an upright position if possible.
2. Allow the toothbrush to air-dry until used again.
3. Keep brushes separated to prevent cross-contamination
4. Do not allow the toothbrushes to contact each other.
5. Do not store them in closed containers. Such conditions (a humid environment) are more conducive to bacterial growth than the open air.

Flipper meets every guideline for toothbrush care established by the Center for Disease Control (CDC) and the American Dental Association (ADA)

"The easiest way to protect your toothbrush is by using a toothbrush cover. Splattering water, contact with skin, and toothbrushes knocking against one another are all circumstances that contribute to the spread of bacteria."

Hygiene & Maintenance

Dentists recommend changing your toothbrush every 3 months, and while we are here to encourage you to collect every Flipper design, our Flippers are made to last! To keep your prized Flipper in tip- top condition, we recommend you give the body a good wash at least once a month.

• Soak and clean the two halves in a soapy solution (Flipper is also dishwasher safe)

Suction Cup Maintenance

• In the event that the suction cups deform or lose their suction ability, submerge the suction cups in hot water at around 176 F to regain the original shape of the cup.
