FAQs
How often should I replace these brush heads?
It is generally recommended to replace toothbrush heads every 3 months, or sooner if the bristles become visibly frayed or worn.
Are these suitable for sensitive teeth?
The charcoal bristles are designed for gentle cleaning, but individual sensitivity varies. If you have concerns, consult your dentist.
What makes the charcoal bristles effective for whitening?
Binchotan charcoal is porous and has natural adsorbent properties, which can help lift surface stains and impurities from teeth, leading to a brighter appearance.
Can I use these with any Oral-B toothbrush?
These heads are compatible with most Oral-B and Braun electric toothbrushes that have a circular brush head. They are NOT compatible with Oral-B iO models.
How does the recycling system work?
LiveCoco operates a closed-loop system where you can send your used brush heads back to them for proper recycling. Instructions are usually found on the product packaging or their website.
Do these heads help with bad breath?
Yes, the Binchotan charcoal infused in the bristles helps to absorb impurities and neutralize odor-causing bacteria, contributing to fresher breath.
What is the difference between these and standard Oral-B heads?
The primary differences are the material (100% recyclable body) and the bristles (infused with Binchotan charcoal for potential whitening and odor benefits), along with LiveCoco's recycling program.
Troubleshooting
Brush head doesn't fit securely
Ensure you are using a compatible Oral-B or Superdrug model and that no debris is obstructing the connection point. Try removing and re-attaching the head firmly.
Bristles feel too soft or stiff
Bristle feel can be subjective. If uncomfortable, ensure you are using the correct model and consider if a different type of brush head might suit your preference better. These are designed with charcoal fibers for specific benefits.
Electric toothbrush not powering on with new head
This is unlikely to be caused by the brush head itself. Ensure the toothbrush handle is charged and functioning correctly. Re-attach the brush head firmly.
Unsure how to send back for recycling
Refer to the packaging or the LiveCoco website for detailed instructions on their closed-loop recycling program. This typically involves packaging the used heads and mailing them to a designated address.
