Eco-Friendly Bamboo Toothbrush


A bamboo toothbrush is a reasonable alternative to Plastic toothbrushes, which are affecting the environment.

Same as any other toothbrush, Bamboo Toothbrush also has two main parts, bristles for brushing and a handle. The handle of the toothbrush is made of MOS bamboo. Bamboo is generally heat-treated to carbonize the surface of the bamboo, giving it a quality finish, which improves the service life.

The process of carbonisation finishing prevents the growth of microbes (moulds and bacteria) during normal use and provides water-resistance to the toothbrush.

Bamboo toothbrushes are made with Bamboo and are a USDA Certified Biobased Product by the government of the United States Bio preferred Program. Purchase of the bamboo toothbrush is a Biobased product that is not fossil fuel-based.

Bamboo toothbrushes contain natural antifungal properties and the handle of the bamboo toothbrush is resistant to damage from water.

When choosing a bamboo toothbrush, consider the shape of the handle, the size of the head, and the bristles. Bamboo toothbrushes can easily fit into the narrow areas of your mouth with soft bristles and a comfortable handle are perfect.


Are Bamboo Toothbrushes Good To Use?

Like conventional toothbrushes, bamboo toothbrushes also affect a person’s teeth in the exact same way. The bamboo toothbrush is made on the same type of machinery that is used to make plastic toothbrushes. Hence, the bamboo toothbrush is not different from a plastic toothbrush.

Environment friendly

This is one of the most obvious benefits of the bamboo toothbrush. Around the entire world, approx. 4.5 billion plastic toothbrushes are purchased annually and are thrown into dustbins every year and for those plastic toothbrushes that go to the dustbins or in our rivers or oceans; they will take approx. 500 years to decompose.

If we talk about bamboo toothbrushes, it is decomposed into the earth within 4-6 months which is safe and good for our environment.

Person's oral hygiene

Have you ever thought about why kitchen utensils and chopping boards are made from bamboo and wood? Because bamboo and wood are natural properties and they work as anti-microbial so they kill bacteria.

This proves that using a bamboo toothbrush is more hygienic in comparison to a plastic toothbrush. You can even buy a toothbrush pouch or wooden toothbrush holder to protect your toothbrush.

Benefits of Bamboo Charcoal toothbrush

According to a recent study, charcoal toothbrushes are slightly more effective than normal toothbrushes. A charcoal toothbrush not only whitens your teeth but also removes stale breath and bacteria, which a normal toothbrush may not do it. 

Charcoal-infused bristles in the bamboo charcoal toothbrush can do wonders by maintaining the mouth’s pH values, drawing out stains, washing off plaque from your dents, and working as an anti-bacterial. Unlike plastic brushes, bamboo charcoal toothbrushes comprise natural antimicrobial properties and are absolutely compostable and reusable toothbrushes.
