No!! Sharing toothbrushes means sharing germs.... germs that may differ from the normal bacterial makeup of your mouth. Keep in mind, periodontal disease is named that way for a reason! It's an infectious disease that can be transferred from one person to another, and can manifest itself without good self care and regular check-up visits to the dentist! Thus, it's always important to have your own toothbrush.
