Quick answer
Mount the Nova Wall Mount at a comfortable reach height on a clean, dry wall near your outlet, then load it with your BURST oral care essentials. For small bathrooms, place it inside a cabinet door or above the sink to free up counter space. The key is to avoid mounting over the toilet or in direct shower spray.
Why wall-mounting works in small bathrooms
In a small bathroom, every inch of counter space counts. A wall-mounted holder keeps toothbrushes, toothpaste, and other essentials off the sink, reducing clutter and making cleaning easier. The Nova Wall Mount is designed to keep your oral care essentials within easy reach while saving counter space. It is compatible with BURST oral care products and has a simple, sleek appearance that complements bathroom decor. Before you start, check that you have a clear wall area near a power source if you use a sonic toothbrush, and that the mount will not interfere with cabinet doors or towel bars.
What you need before you start
Gather your tools: the Nova Wall Mount, a pencil, a level, a drill with an appropriate bit for your wall type, wall anchors if needed, and a screwdriver. If you rent or cannot drill, consider adhesive mounting strips rated for bathroom use, but note that the Nova Wall Mount’s catalog facts do not specify a particular mounting method, so choose hardware that matches your wall and the mount’s design. Also have your BURST toothbrush and toothpaste ready to test the fit.

Placement tips for tight spaces
In a small bathroom, consider mounting the Nova Wall Mount inside a cabinet door or on the side of a vanity to keep it out of sight. Avoid placing it directly above the toilet, where aerosols can settle, or inside the shower, where constant moisture can degrade the mount and your toothbrush. If you share the bathroom, mount it at a height that works for everyone, or use a lower position for kids and a higher one for adults. For kids, pair the mount with a kid-friendly toothpaste like BURST Kids Toothpaste Bubblegum to encourage brushing.

Maintenance and adjustments
Once mounted, check the Nova Wall Mount monthly to ensure it remains secure. Tighten screws or replace adhesive strips if you notice any wobble. Clean the mount with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the finish. If you use whitening strips, store them nearby but not inside the mount unless it is designed for that. The BURST Mint Non-Slip Whitening Strips come in a compact package that can fit in a small basket or drawer next to your mount.

Installation steps
- Choose the location: Hold the Nova Wall Mount against the wall at a comfortable height, typically 40–48 inches from the floor for adults. Mark the screw holes with a pencil. Check that the mount is level and that it does not block cabinet doors or outlets. Common mistake: mounting too high or too low, making it awkward to reach. Check by pretending to grab your toothbrush.
- Prepare the wall: If drilling into drywall, use wall anchors rated for the weight of the mount and your toothbrush. For tile, use a tile bit and avoid cracking the glaze. Clean the area with rubbing alcohol to remove dust and soap residue. Checkpoint: ensure the wall is dry and clean before mounting; moisture can weaken adhesive or cause screws to slip.
- Secure the mount: Attach the Nova Wall Mount using the included hardware or your chosen method. Tighten screws until snug, but do not overtighten, which can crack tile or strip anchors. If using adhesive, press firmly for 30 seconds and wait 24 hours before loading. Common mistake: loading the mount immediately after using adhesive. Wait the full cure time.
- Load and test: Place your BURST toothbrush and toothpaste in the mount. Gently pull down to test stability. If it shifts, tighten screws or add another anchor. For sonic toothbrushes, ensure the charging base can still reach an outlet. Checkpoint: the mount should hold items securely without wobbling. If it does, you are ready to use it.
