BAMBOO TOOTHBRUSH – Individual Brush
Did you know that all the plastic toothbrushes you’ve ever in your life used still exist? It’s pretty daunting when you think about it, but don’t worry, we’re here to help you stop that right now! Our Bamboo Toothbrush is made of a 100% natural bamboo handle, which is 100% biodegradable! So it's clean for the planet, but even cleaner for your teeth!
Here’s why:
Our bristles are made of Nylon 6 infused with Activated Bamboo Charcoal, which is a natural antibacterial, and an awesome stain remover. This means our toothbrush is naturally Teeth Whitening.
Our pack includes 4 toothbrushes of the same bristle strength, so your yearly supply of toothbrushes will be all covered, and the planet will thank you for not throwing away 4 more plastic toothbrushes every year! They come in 3 different bristle strengths: Soft for those with sensitive gums, Medium and Hard for those that like an extra clean brush.
How Are They Made?Our Bamboo Toothbrushes are made with a 100% natural bamboo handle made from Moso Bamboo. It’s a species of Bamboo local to China, and it has the ability to grow very tall in a very short time. The bamboo comes from sustainably harvested forests and is made into handles through a mechanical process that uses up as much of the plant as possible, so nothing is wasted.
The bristles in our toothbrush are made from Nylon 6 and are infused with Activated Bamboo Charcoal. Activated Bamboo Charcoal is a natural teeth whitener. It absorbs the toxins and helps keep teeth clean and white.
Right now there aren’t any 100% natural fibre bristles available out there, except animal hair bristles. So if you’re looking for a bristle that is respectful to our planet, as well as to the animals, our infused Activated Bamboo Charcoals are the best alternative. To make the bristles, the Nylon is infused with the activated bamboo charcoal, once the paste is mixed, it passes through an extruding machine that converts them into bristles. The process is hardly handmade, as it requires quite a bit of mechanization.
USING YOUR BAMBOO TOOTHBRUSH
Use your bamboo toothbrush like you’ve used any other toothbrush in your life! Put some toothpaste on, and brush away! Remember dentists recommend brushing your teeth after every meal, and at least for 5 minutes!
Like with any hygiene product, we always recommend rinsing it the first time before use!
TAKING CARE OF YOUR BAMBOO TOOTHBRUSH
After use, rinse it with water and make sure to dry it properly. If you have a hanging rack for toothbrushes, that’s awesome!
If you don’t, make sure to dry it properly before putting it inside a cup. We always recommend cups that have an opening at the bottom so that water can come out and not get stuck. Remember that the handle is made of bamboo, and as with any natural product, continuous contact with water can end up damaging the bottom end of the toothbrush. If you don’t have a cup with holes in the bottom, you can also put it sideways on top so that the water drips without staying in contact with the toothbrush.
DISPOSING OF YOUR BAMBOO TOOTHBRUSH
Disposing of your bamboo toothbrush is easy if you know how! The only thing you will need is a pair of pliers. With the pliers, pull out all the bristles. You can throw them in the plastic recycling bin. The handle is 100% biodegradable, so you can either compost it, or you can use the handle in as many original ways as you can think of. They make great garden signs or door stoppers, by the way.

• Why are the bristles of your bamboo toothbrushes made of nylon?
Believe us when we say we’ve looked for hundreds of options. But the truth is that the only “all-natural” option that exists up to now, is bristles made of animal hair (pig, horse, even goat). Being that we like to keep our products Vegan, we opted to make our bamboo toothbrush from Nylon. Nylon is a highly recyclable material, that is very resistant and easy to clean. We know it's not perfect, but it’s definitely the best option out there.
