FAQs
Is the handle really compostable?
Yes, once the nylon bristles are removed, the FSC-certified beechwood handle can be placed in your home compost.
Are the bristles made of plastic?
The bristles are made of BPA-free nylon to ensure effective cleaning and safety, which is currently the most durable option for soft-bristled brushes.
How often should I replace this toothbrush?
As with any toothbrush, it is recommended to replace it every 3 months or sooner if the bristles show signs of significant wear.
Is this toothbrush suitable for adults?
While adults can use it, the handle is specifically sized for developing motor skills, so adults may find the handle shorter than a standard toothbrush.
Does the wood require any special sealant?
No, the brush is intended to be used as-is. Avoid applying oils or sealants as they may not be food-safe or suitable for oral hygiene products.
Troubleshooting
Handle feeling damp or discolored
Ensure the toothbrush is kept in a dry area and is not left sitting in a puddle of water on the sink.
Bristles fraying too quickly
Check the brushing pressure; the soft bristles are designed for gentle movement rather than heavy scrubbing.
Difficulty removing bristles for composting
Use a pair of sturdy pliers to grip the bristle tufts and pull them firmly from the wooden base.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To prepare your brush for use, simply rinse the head under warm water before applying your preferred natural toothpaste.
Care Instructions:
- Drying: After each use, shake off excess water and place the brush in an open-air holder.
- Avoid Soaking: Do not leave the handle submerged in water, as natural wood is porous and can expand or discolor.
- End-of-Life: When the bristles become frayed (typically every 3 months), use a pair of pliers to pull the nylon bristles out of the head for recycling, then place the beechwood handle in your home compost bin.
