FAQs

What material are the bristles made from?

The bristles are made from 100% castor oil, which is a plant-based material.

Is the bamboo sustainably sourced?

Yes, the bamboo used is Moso bamboo, which is FSC (Forestry Stewardship Certified) and comes from sustainably and responsibly managed forests.

How should I dispose of the toothbrush?

The bamboo handle can be composted or disposed of according to local bamboo waste guidelines. The plant-based bristles can typically be removed and placed in general waste.

Is this toothbrush suitable for children?

While designed for adults, the small head and slim neck can be suitable for older children. However, supervision is recommended to ensure proper brushing technique.

What does being a B-Corp mean?

Being a certified B-Corp means the company meets rigorous standards of social and environmental performance, accountability, and transparency.

How often should I replace my Truthbrush?

It is recommended to replace your toothbrush every 3 months, or sooner if the bristles become frayed or splayed, similar to conventional toothbrushes.

What is the plant oil finish for?

The plant oil finish is applied to the bamboo handle to make it smooth to the touch and provide water resistance, helping to maintain its condition.

Troubleshooting

Bristles feel too firm

This is the medium bristle version. Consider trying the soft bristle option if you have sensitive gums or prefer a gentler feel.

Bamboo handle discoloration

This is natural and can occur with any wood product exposed to moisture. Ensure the brush is stored in a dry place and dries completely between uses. The discoloration does not affect the toothbrush's functionality.

Bristles splaying quickly

Ensure you are not applying excessive pressure while brushing. Replace the toothbrush every 3 months or when bristles show signs of wear.
