Gonorrhea : Gonorrhea is sexually transmitted. It would not be present on a toothbrush, and if it was, it would not survive outside the body on an innanimate object. Lastly, remember to protect yourself against std's with condoms.

New toothbrush: The antibiotic was still active the night you used the old brush so i wouldn't worry. But a new brush would be a good and cheap precaution.
