This Bamboo Toothbrush Is Exactly What Your Morning Ritual Needs

Tansha Vohra

What toothbrush do you brush your teeth with? Do you remember its colour, or whether it has one of those flexi grips or special bristles that extend into the deep inner recesses of your mouth? Or do you remember it to be just another stick of plastic coated in another layer of coloured plastic topped off with plastic spokes and finished with a plastic brand name etched deep into its plastic soul? If you’ve answered yes to this last one, we’ve found just the thing to change up your morning ritual in the best way.

Enter Bamboo Toothbrush - Bamboo India’s latest contribution to plastic free, biodegradable consumption! This all natural toothbrush has a completely biodegradable handle made of MOS bamboo, an environmentally sustainable timber. “The bamboo is heat treated to carbonise the surface of the bamboo, giving it a quality finish and good service life. The carbonisation finishing process provides water resistance and prevents the growth of microbes (bacteria and moulds) during normal use” their website states. The bamboo toothbrush bristles are made out of Nylon4, bamboo fiber or corn fiber with colour options ranging from aquamarine to fuschia to sunshine yellow - this legitimately makes brushing that much more fun.

The toothbrush comes in completely biogradable packaging, and can be made for adults as well as kids. The brush costs INR 120, and can be bought online off their website here.
