I thought I was the only one who noticed the bristle thing. I got this UV sanitizer after my last cleaning because, honestly, my dentist really freaked me out about “germs” and I panicked. But after a couple weeks, my brush head started looking kind of... yellowish? Not super gross or anything, just off. And yeah, the bristles felt rougher, like they lost that soft bendy feeling. I kept wondering if I was doing something wrong—like maybe I left it in too long or didn’t dry it enough before putting it in the case.
Switched back to just rinsing and letting it air dry on a stand. It feels less stressful, honestly. I keep worrying about bacteria but then again, the brush lasts longer and doesn’t look weird. Maybe the whole UV thing is overkill? Or maybe I just got a cheap one. Either way, glad I’m not alone in this—thought I was imagining it at first.
