In the effort to reduce plastic waste and embrace sustainable living practices, even our everyday choices matter. One of these choices is the toothbrush, where eco-friendly alternatives are making waves. According to a report by National Geographic, more than 1 billion plastic toothbrushes are thrown away every year in the United States. From innovative materials to biodegradable options, the market now offers a variety of toothbrushes that cater to dental hygiene and environmental consciousness.
Cocofloss Cocobrush, an Ultra-Soft Manual Toothbrush, is dentist-designed for gentle gum care and comes in a rainbow set of 4. Crafted from recycled plastic, this eco-conscious pack offers a luxurious brushing experience. Priced at $38, it combines sustainability with dental hygiene, ensuring every brush is a step towards a healthier smile.
Heather said, “I never thought I’d have a “come to Jesus moment” with a toothbrush!! I’ve used the Cocofloss floss for over a year now and have been amazed with how soft it is on my gums and how much stuff it gets out of my teeth, so I thought I’d try the brush. I can’t even describe how soft the bristles are! Because regular toothbrushes are usually rough, I could never brush my gums, but the Cocofloss brush gives me the confidence to brush my gums and get a longer deep clean that a regular brush could never accomplish! Afterwards, my teeth felt completely fresh and happy :D; I literally felt the wind between my teeth because there was no plaque or food left to get in the way! I’ve never felt so excited to brush my teeth ever. Cocofloss’ products truly make it a joy to take care of your smile. I will never use another brush again! Thank you, ladies, for what you have made, it’s definitely a joy in my life now!”
Biodegradable Bamboo Toothbrushes come in a 10-pack and feature BPA-free soft bristles. They are crafted from eco-friendly, compostable bamboo. At just $8.98, these natural wooden brushes offer a guilt-free oral care solution, perfect for environmentally conscious consumers looking to reduce plastic waste.
Frank said, “Bought these because I was looking for a way to reduce plastic waste. These bristles are nylon but, overall, there is way less plastic waste. Bonus Fact: they actually do a good job of cleaning, leaving teeth feeling smooth & polished, & because they are inexpensive, you don’t mind reaching for a new one when the bristles do start to wear. Only downside is that a stray bristle fiber does occasionally go rogue & sticks out from the pack; I just trim those off & keep going.”
Preserve Eco Friendly Adult Toothbrushes, a USA-made product from recycled plastic, boasts ultra-soft bristles and comes in a 6-Pack with varied colors. Priced at $21.20, these brushes not only prioritize sustainability with their recycled materials but also offer a gentle brushing experience, ideal for sensitive gums.
Jack said, “I’m 80 years old, have most of my teeth, and have used a LOT of toothbrushes. I estimate that I have brushed my teeth with a toothbrush about 55,000 times. This brush is the best I have ever had. The brushes last and the genuine ergonomic design of the handle and angle of the brushes make the toothbrush very easy to use correctly -brushing the inside and outside tooth surfaces vertically instead of across. Since they last so long ( see the next paragraph about this), and proper dental care prolongs life, I bought 30 of them – enough to last the rest of my life. I discovered these brushes in our grocery store and bought them from Amazon because of the limited quantity. Now the store no longer carries them, which proves the rule that all good products will eventually be taken off the market or made worse by the manufacturer. So, buy a bunch of these because the price is right, they are fabulous brushes, and it appears that are getting harder to find. Later added: The first brush is still going strong. The bristles keep their shape and stiffness (soft), and the ergonomic design continues to be extremely helpful.”
Jordan Green Clean Manual Toothbrush showcases Scandinavian Design with sustainable, eco-friendly features. The pack of 4, priced at $8.91, offers Soft Bristles in a mix of calming blue shades and vibrant pink and green. It’s a stylish yet responsible choice for conscious consumers aiming to reduce their environmental footprint.
Carole said, “The brush is soft but not too soft. It gets the job done. My teeth feel clean afterward. I like that it’s Eco friendly. The colors are very nice. Good value.”
The EcoGo Travel Foldable Bamboo Toothbrush with BPA-free soft bristles provides eco-friendly dental care in a travel-sized, reusable compact case. Priced affordably at $8, this toothbrush set emphasizes safety with its BPA-free bristles and sustainable bamboo handle, packaged in biodegradable materials for eco-conscious travelers.
Gabriella said, “I’ve been looking for a travel-sized toothbrush for some time and finally found the perfect one. It’s easy to pack, has soft bristles, is eco-friendly (a major plus), and is durable! Bought for my whole family and they all love it!”
The Humble Co. Bamboo Toothbrushes come in a 5 pack and offer superior oral care with BPA-free ultra-soft bristles. Priced at $8.09, these eco-friendly brushes prioritize dental hygiene and gum care, crafted from sustainable bamboo for a gentle yet effective brushing experience.
Elena said, “I was worried about trying a bamboo toothbrush for fear that it would get dull immediately or not be as durable as my standard Oral-B or whatever. But these toothbrushes are great, I have had them for a while and still am on my first brush, and it doesn’t feel dull or worn at all. I would buy these again and not miss my old plastic brushes at all.”
Sea Turtle Plant-Based Bristles presents soft bamboo toothbrushes, individually sealed in a 10-pack for $16.99. Designed with environmental consciousness in mind, each brush features plant-based bristles and a bamboo handle, making it a responsible choice for those seeking sustainable oral care solutions.
Eric said, “After I learned how damaging microplastics can be from using toothbrushes I immediately was searching for a natural toothbrush from the bristles down. This was the only product that really stood out with the bean bristles and natural bamboo handle. I thought at first it might be weak or inferior. to my surprise, these toothbrushes have held up extremely well, even with the abusive children and the regular brushing habits that we have mildly stiff bristles, which are hard enough to clean plaque it soft enough for your gums. Now I don’t have to worry about my family ingesting those harmful microplastics, I’ll never go back to any other brand.”
Smartlife Bamboo Charcoal Toothbrush With Travel Case & Holder Kit features extra soft natural bristles tailored for sensitive teeth. Priced at $8.99, this eco-friendly set includes a portable wooden travel case and stand, ensuring hygienic storage and convenience while reducing plastic waste with its organic materials and charcoal-infused bristles.
Shirley said, “These last a long time, work well, and are not too hard. (I had to get over the clarinet reed sensation dislike initially – a throwback to 5th grade – and it doesn’t bother me at all now.) The travel case is bulky and I will just put a little cover over the brush. I like the stand. I like when I am done with it, I can put it in my yard debris recycling!”
The Traveling Panda Mini Travel Bamboo Toothbrush Kit includes 2 soft bristle toothbrushes and mint toothpaste tablets, priced at $8.99. Ideal for on-the-go dental care, this compact pouch houses essentials for travelers, combining convenience with eco-consciousness.
Lucy said, “Really love this little toothbrush. I always keep it in my traveling toiletry bag now. I used it when I was lightweight backpacking. It’s true that the handle is small, but it didn’t bother me. My husband preferred not to use it though, so it might just work better for smaller hands.”
DR.BRIGHT Toothbrushes offer a biodegradable natural eco-friendly option with recyclable green & compostable individual packaging in a 4-pack for $8.99. Made from fermented natural cornstarch-based materials, these brushes are 100% biodegradable and compostable, featuring an ergonomic handle for a comfortable, non-slip grip alongside a stylish, minimalist design for eco-savvy consumers.
Vince said, “These toothbrushes come in great packaging!! I think having individual packaging for each toothbrush is a very nice design. My dentist recommended a softer toothbrush, which I’ve used for a while and is especially good for my sensitive gums because it’s so soft. That’s one of the reasons I bought it. Another reason I like this toothbrush is that it is eco-friendly, I think a lot of people need to be environmentally conscious these days, and being eco-friendly means that it requires a higher level of craftsmanship, so I think the price of the toothbrush is right.
Overall I love this toothbrush!!”
