We're so proud to expand our one stop sustainable essentials + wellcare shop and now offer Bamboo Toothbrushes for the whole family!
So, what's special about bamboo toothbrushes? For one, they are friendly to our planet. Over 10 billion plastic toothbrushes are disposed of every year. Plastic is not biodegradable. In fact, it can take over 400 years to decompose in a landfill.
The Pink Moon Bamboo Toothbrush, on the other hand, is made from ethically sourced, 100% biodegradable, fast-growing bamboo. Specifically, moso bamboo, which is not the kind of bamboo pandas eat. So no need to worry about taking away from pandas' essentials! Bamboo is a renewable resource that can be harvested in 1-5 years. It's antimicrobial which allows it to grow in a wide range of climates without the use of pesticides and fertilizers. And since the bamboo handle is naturally antimicrobial, you won't have to worry about germs growing on it!
Made with safe, BPA-free, and vegan bristles (made from castor bean oil), this toothbrush is wonderful to use on sensitive gums and teeth. We chose an angled bristle head, which cleans hard-to-reach gum lines and back molars. The bristles are soft because dentists recommend soft bristles over medium or hard bristles because they prevent damage to your gums. The soft bristles make brushing teeth comfortable and nice while being firm enough to sweep away bacteria.
These perfectly complement RiseWell mineral toothpastes.
How to compost your bamboo toothbrush after you're done with it (dentists recommend to change your toothbrush every 3 months or after the bristles have frayed): Simply trim off the bristles and toss the bamboo handle in your compost bin / community compost bins!
Available in 3 varieties: pink and white for adults and rainbow colored bristles for kids 🌈 with option to purchase a 5-pack to save $5!
