Caring For Your Toothbrush
Store Your Brush in Dry Area
Bamboo is a natural material that keeps best when kept in a dry area. Enclosed toothbrush cups that collect water are not ideal. It’s best to keep your toothbrush in an open-air toothbrush holder or any other dry area.
Before First Use
We recommend you thoroughly rinse the toothbrush handle and bristles with water before first use. This especially important with bamboo toothbrushes as compared to plastic toothbrushes. There may be some bamboo dust that remains on the toothbrush head and handle after manufacturing. This is harmless but needs to be washed off.
Your Bamboo Handle
You may notice the bamboo on the top portion of your toothbrush that goes in your mouth may begin to appear lighter and faded with use. This is normal and will not affect your brushing experience.
Toothbrush Lifespan
Like most things, with proper care your bamboo toothbrush will last just as long as a conventional plastic toothbrush. Dentists recommend replacing your toothbrush every 3 months, or when the bristles have frayed.
