I've been given to understand that the "brushing teeth by toilet" issue is centered upon the amount of bacteria/whatever that actually becomes airborne when the toilet is flushed.

I thought quite seriously about this for a while, but then realized I'd never heard of someone who died from inadvertently brushing their teeth with a toilet-flush/waste-tainted toothbrush.
