I try not to, but ever since I started using an electric toothbrush, I can't help but turn the water on almost right away. Is there an easy way to fix this?

a really easy way to fix that is to stand a little bit away from the sink, so then you won't be tempted to turn the faucet on

I don't let the water run while brushing my teeth. how come you started doing that when you used an electric toothbrush? try to go in a different room without a sink and try to brush your teeth like that. that's what I do.

I always brush my teeth in the shower. I use a Braun electric toothbrush and there is no problem using it there but there may be using other battery powered ones. Electric toothbrushes create a much foamier mess and it always dribbles so its easy to wash away in the shower.

I actually brush my teeth in the shower! I know it sounds crazy or gross but it actually saves time! So get a regular toothbrush and take it in the shower with you! I started the habit when I was in college and lived in the dorms! There was hardly any room for me to get to a sink since I lived in an all girls dorm! So brushing my teeth in the shower was easier!! :)

I try not to let the water run generally, especially while there is a water shortage (we've got hosepipe bans here you know), I wouldn't say a hosepipe ban was a drought situation, at least we've got drinkable water. Anyway, I can't remember what I was going to say, so I'll tell you a nursery rhyme: Row row row your boat, gently down the stream, Melanie Melanie Melanie Melanie, life is but a dream. :)

Ya! I have that bad habit also. It started by one lazy day of, "I'm just brushing them real quick" to just watching the water wast before my eyes as I bush on. I think you should think just how annoying that is, to hear the water run, so that you get tiered of it an turn the nob off.

I used to, but the running water made my toothbrush pee.

well it's just unnecessary to let it run. I used to leave it on but then I just stopped doing it because I just thought it was unnecessary if i''m not even using it and the toothbrush is in my mouth :D

Yes, most of the time, because I do not want to keep my paws on the nasty handle or keep turning it on and off when my hands are clean. I hate germs. I am not a germ freak though, but I have quirky ideas like that. :)
