Electric toothbrushes with UV disinfector

UV disinfector

— this refers to the inclusion of a UV disinfection component as part of the device package, typically used for sanitizing interchangeable nozzles for hygiene purposes.

UV disinfection offers an excellent alternative to boiling or using specialized cleaning agents. It's a straightforward, convenient, and safe method, eliminating the need for chemicals and ensuring that the treated nozzles don't get hot, making them immediately usable. Ultraviolet radiation effectively eradicates nearly all pathogens, and it remains confined within the disinfection device, posing no threat to others. However, it's important to clarify that UV disinfection doesn't handle cleaning; regular dirt and debris still need to be washed off through conventional means.

The disinfectors themselves are usually made in the form of characteristic containers and often also play the role of storage/transportation cases.
