FAQs

Is the bamboo handle treated?

Yes, the handle is finished with a natural plant oil to provide a smooth feel and make it water-resistant.

Are the bristles truly plant-based?

Yes, the bristles are made from 100% castor oil, making them vegan and derived from plants.

How often should I replace my Truthbrush?

As with any toothbrush, it is recommended to replace your Truthbrush every 3 months, or sooner if the bristles show signs of wear or fraying.

What does B-Corp certification mean?

B-Corp certification signifies that Truthbrush meets rigorous standards of social and environmental performance, accountability, and transparency. They are committed to using business as a force for good.

How should I dispose of the toothbrush?

The bamboo handle can be composted. The plant-based bristles should be removed (you can often pull them out with pliers) and disposed of with general waste, as they are typically not biodegradable in home compost systems.

Does Truthbrush offer other bristle types?

Yes, Truthbrush offers this model in both medium and soft bristle options to suit different preferences and sensitivities.

Where does the bamboo come from?

The bamboo is sourced from responsibly managed forests in China and is FSC (Forestry Stewardship Certified).

Troubleshooting

Bristles feel too firm

If you prefer a softer feel, consider trying the Truthbrush with soft bristles. Alternatively, ensure you are using gentle pressure while brushing. Soaking the bristles in warm water briefly can also soften them slightly.

Bamboo handle appears dull or dry

This may indicate the plant oil finish needs replenishing. Apply a small amount of food-grade mineral oil or a natural plant oil (like coconut or jojoba) to the handle with a cloth and allow it to absorb. Wipe off any excess.

Bristles splaying prematurely

Ensure you are not applying excessive pressure while brushing. Store the toothbrush in a dry location away from constant moisture. Replace the brush every 3 months regardless, as recommended for optimal hygiene.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Truthbrush is ready to use straight out of its recyclable packaging. Apply your preferred toothpaste to the bristles and begin brushing.

Compatibility: This toothbrush is compatible with most toothpaste types. For a fully plastic-free routine, consider using it with toothpaste tablets or powders.

Care: To ensure the longevity of your bamboo toothbrush:

  1. Rinse the bristles and handle thoroughly after each use.
  2. Store the toothbrush upright in a dry, well-ventilated place, away from direct water splashes.
  3. Avoid leaving the toothbrush in standing water or in a damp environment, as this can degrade the bamboo.
  4. Replace your Truthbrush every 3 months, or sooner if the bristles become frayed, as recommended by dental professionals.
