Default Is tooth brushing water from hot tap safer than from cold tap?

However what about brushing your teeth? Most people would brush
their teeth using water from the cold tap in the bathroom. ...


That is why the cold tap to the hand basin in my bathroom complies
with the requirements for a tap that supplies drinking water.

Indeed. I would not be happy to clean my teeth with water from *any*
tap which wasn't directly mains fed. If my hand-basins had cold
supplies from attic tanks (which they don't!), I'd use a jug of water
from a mains supply - such as the kitchen tap, or even bottled water.


I'm wondering how on earth I'm still alive.
