Bamboo Toothbrush
During chemotherapy many people suffer from nausea and mouth ulcers and choosing a soft bristled brush can be gentler on the mouth. Some people also find that bamboo is a nicer texture to put into the mouth when feeling nauseous.
Bamboo toothbrushes are growing in popularity, not only because they reduce waste, but bamboo is naturally antimicrobial. Unlike plastic, properties inside the bamboo kill bacteria that penetrate it’s surface, providing long-lasting protection against harmful bacteria.
The bristles used on these bamboo toothbrushes are made from BPA free nylon. Bamboo is one of the fastest growing plants on earth, meaning there is a sustainable supply of bamboo - and it’s also completely biodegradable, so it can be composted or recycled at the end of its life.
