After reading this article on the subject of Organic toothbrushes with natural bristles you will probably never use the conventional plastic toothbrush again.
The top 6 reasons to buy an organic toothbrush
The clearest way I can show you the advantages of the biological toothbrush is in a classic top 6 chart.
#1 Sustainable Made Organic Bamboo Toothbrush
Wooden toothbrushes with natural bristles are produced sustainably. The toothbrushes are 100% made of biodegradable bamboo wood and receive natural bristles made of the bio-fabric nylon 4 in combination with bamboo charcoal (Charcoal), which has proven positive effects for healthy teeth. Bamboo wood is one of the most rapidly renewable resources on our planet and can be harvested in an environmentally friendly manner. The shoots of bamboo plants grow about one meter in 36 hours. The bamboo wood is therefore ideally suited for the sustainable production of the wooden toothbrush and also looks good. Incidentally, the packaging of the toothbrushes from CareElite is also biodegradable and plastic-free. Especially when you consider that dentists recommend changing toothbrushes every three months, we are going a very environmentally friendly way with the use of natural organic toothbrushes.
#2 Organic toothbrush with natural bristles for healthy teeth
The natural bristles of the wooden toothbrush without plastic consist of the biological nylon 4 and bamboo carbon particles as mentioned. The particles of the carbon fibers are proven effective against tooth discoloration and polish the tooth surface very carefully. Gums and enamel are optimally protected. It is recommended to lightly moisten the natural bristles and then stroke over each tooth, starting from the gums to the end of the tooth. In this way, the teeth can be easily freed from plaque with the natural toothbrush. The bamboo wood of the toothbrush itself is also perfect for use as a toothbrush. Bamboo wood is very dense, cut-resistant, naturally antibacterial and germ-reducing. Optimal conditions for the wooden toothbrush and more than an alternative to the conventional plastic toothbrush.
#3 Organic Toothbrush - Reusable & Plastic Free
250 million tons of plastic are produced every year. The plastic waste often doesn't end up in the trash can where it belongs. Moreover, the garbage drifts on the seas, and eventually sinks to the bottom. Plastic waste in the environment means a great danger for our environment. With the wooden toothbrush and natural bristles we counteract this trend and do not produce plastic waste. As I said, it is recommended to change the toothbrush every 3 months. This makes toothbrushes one of the biggest producers of plastic waste. However, the organic toothbrush can be reused after wear. For example, there are no limits to creativity to use the bamboo wood for decorative ideas in the garden or the apartment.
#4 Antimicrobial Bio Toothbrush
Sustainability, naturalness and reusability are wonderful advantages of the organic toothbrush over conventional plastic toothbrushes. But the bamboo wood also has perfect properties for use as a toothbrush. The wood is water repellent, does not splinter, and is antimicrobial, meaning that the toothbrush is effective against all forms of oral pathogens. Of course, using a wooden toothbrush is unusual at first for those who have always had a plastic toothbrush with white bristles. But you actually get used to the black natural bristles and wooden handle very quickly.
#5 Reduce plastic consumption in Germany
By switching to the alternative plastic-free toothbrush made of bamboo wood, you ensure that the demand for plastic in Germany is reduced. By decreasing the demand, we can achieve in the long run that the industry will automatically look more into alternative materials to manufacture their products. Currently, the industry has little interest in switching from plastic to alternative materials, as toothbrushes and other articles, as well as their packaging, can simply be produced much more cheaply with plastic. Switch to the wooden toothbrush with natural charcoal bristles and you will help to increase the pressure on the industry.
#6 Organic Toothbrush - The Beginning of Plastic Free Lifestyle
For me, the organic toothbrush was the starting signal for my plastic-free life and the work on my Plastic-free project CareElite. With full conviction and as a matter of course, I now use my organic toothbrush every day and in the meantime many other things have been added that round off my life without plastic. I am proud that so many other people have also recognized the danger of plastic and recognize. Your switch to the organic toothbrush is just the beginning, because it is a sign of how easy it is to replace conventional plastic items in your.
Use an organic toothbrush for healthy teeth
Before I took a closer look at organic toothbrushes, there was of course a plastic toothbrush in my toiletry bag, as there certainly is with 98% of Germans. But now I do not want to give up my wooden toothbrush, because when brushing my teeth there is no noticeable difference to the plastic brush. Since I prefer to invest in a environmentally friendly toothbrush and do not produce plastic waste when it is worn out. In addition, you can also get the toothbrush as a small wooden toothbrush for children.

Reusable instead of disposable!!!
Why is the toothbrush actually a disposable product that has to be disposed of after a few months?
There used to be toothbrushes in the drugstore where you could change the head and thus use them several times. For a few years, however, there are unfortunately only (at least at Dm) toothbrushes with a maximum of 3 or 4 exchange heads in the pack. Before that, you could still buy the heads individually.
I wonder why there are not toothbrushes on the market made of high quality material and with replaceable heads, which could then be used easily for a year or even several years.
For example, the toothbrushes could be made of hard plastic or even
aluminum, carbon or similar.
The heads would then have to have a standard size and would be sold by various competitors at low prices (due to the competition).
we would have at least greatly reduced a large consumption of plastic, instead of rice-rich bamboo
plantations that would likely displace virgin forest or food crops.
The downside to this, however, is of course that the big toothbrush companies would have strong profit and power losses....
Hi Jacob, thanks for your comment. In the end, it's all about profit, especially for the big corporations, you're absolutely right. I am currently working on a toothbrush that is as sustainable as possible, where only the head needs to be replaced. Let's see what's feasible there.

Hello Kevin and Christoph.
With the "Swak" the question arises for me what natural fluorides are supposed to be.
I personally have never heard of it.
If substances are added to this "toothbrush" afterwards, such as vitamin C etc., then I ask myself how natural it is.
According to the manufacturer, only freshly packed, untreated and not dried root wood of the toothbrush tree is used, which would exclude subsequent addition of substances.
To clarify once again.
Fluorides are highly toxic substances and I wonder if they exist in natural form at all and if so, if they are not also harmful.
Also an artificially produced vitamin C would be rather an ascorbic acid which does not protect the body at all, but rather impairs it.
Ascorbic acid is a chemically high-dose vitamin C and increases iron absorption so much that oxides can be formed in the body.
These then lead to inflammation and possibly to further diseases.
I would wish that this is not the case and the product is really untreated.
This should be checked with the manufacturer.
I do not want to devalue this "toothbrush" in any way !
But I think this would be important to clarify.

Moin Dave! I can not judge the Swak, as I have never used it and also have no further information about this toothbrush ready. Maybe someone else can help out?
Many greetings,
Christoph
Hey! Great thing, I want to have, but the link provided redirects me to amazon and I'm currently trying to order as little as possible there. Is not the toothbrush also in any stores?
Thank you very much!
Hi Tami, danke fรผr deinen Kommentar ๐
Unfortunately not yet, but is already in the works. Hope that's okay for you for now.
Many greetings

Hello Tami,
meanwhile there are bamboo toothbrushes at Mรผllerdrogeriemarkt (very soft bristles, but cheaper than at Kaufland) and the other day I even found them in a Kaufland (medium hardness).
