Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is the handle really compostable?

Yes, the handle is made from non-GMO corn starch and is designed to be compostable in a home or industrial composting environment.

Can I request a specific color?

Unfortunately, colors are assigned at random based on inventory, and we cannot guarantee a specific color selection.

How often should I replace the brush?

We recommend replacing the toothbrush every 8 weeks or sooner if the bristles show signs of wear or after a child has been sick.

Are these brushes safe for infants?

Yes, the bristles are extra soft and designed to be gentle on both gums and emerging teeth, making them suitable for young children.

Are the bristles made of plastic?

The bristles are made of high-quality, rounded nylon to ensure effective plaque removal, though the handle is plant-based.

Troubleshooting

Bristles fraying quickly

Check if the child is applying too much pressure while brushing; teach a gentle circular motion instead of scrubbing.

Handle feels slightly rough

This is a natural characteristic of the corn starch material; it is normal and safe for use.

Bristles are not removing plaque

Ensure that the toothbrush is being used at a 45-degree angle towards the gumline for at least two minutes.

Pros and Cons

  • Ultra-soft, tapered bristles are gentle on sensitive gums
  • Ergonomic handle is perfect for children's grip
  • Free from toxic materials like BPA and PVC
  • Supports environmental non-profits with every sale

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because this is a manual toothbrush, there is no technical setup required. To maintain the best hygiene, rinse the toothbrush thoroughly with water after every use and store it upright in an open container to allow the bristles to air dry completely. Given the natural composition of the corn starch handle, avoid leaving the toothbrush submerged in water or in extreme heat, as this may affect the integrity of the material. We recommend replacing the brush every 8 weeks, or sooner if the bristles begin to splay. Once the bristles are worn, you can remove the head (where applicable based on local regulations) or dispose of the handle in your home compost system.
