[BlindTlk] applying toothpaste

[Sherry Gomes]

Madison, I didn't see your original post. Here's what I do. I have the toothbrush on the counter. I'm lefthanded, so the toothpaste tube is in my left hand. I lightly touch the tip of my index finger on my right hand to the edge of the toothbrush and make sure I get the paste only on the top of the brush. It doesn't make a mess, and it makes sure I'm putting it exactly where I want it to be.

Sherry

Hello Madison,

OK here is my solution and it’s an easy one. Don’t bother putting the toothpaste on your brush just squirt it directly into your mouth! Can have your own personal tube of toothpaste if it would gross out anybody else but it works perfectly and I’ve done it most of my life! You can also measure out the amount you want.
