Oral Care

Refillable dental floss is a simple and stylish plastic-free alternative. Each new floss purchase comes with a refillable glass container with a 33-yard spool of compostable silk or corn floss. 

Refills are available separately in packs of 2 spools (66 yards total!) so you can use your container again and again.

Since this floss is biodegradable, it can be a bit more prone to breakage than regular plastic floss; it can sometimes break between very tight spots between your teeth. We offer both silk and corn floss because the silk is a bit sturdier and might be a preferred option if you have tight spaces between your teeth.

Ingredients

The silk floss is made with 100% compostable silk. The other ingredients are candelilla wax and natural mint flavoring.

The vegan floss is made with a compostable corn fiber, candelilla wax and natural mint flavoring.

Packaging

Floss dispensers are a small glass container with a metal lid. They come in a small kraft recyclable paper box.

Floss refills come in a small kraft recyclable paper box and a compostable paper wrapper.

Manufactured in China.

The floss is compostable after use, and the container is refillable! The container can also be recycled or passed along to a friend if it doesn't work out for you (but we hope it will!)

Plastic toothbrushes are one of the top ten items found during beach cleanups.  In fact, every plastic toothbrush ever made still exists today. These bamboo toothbrushes are such an easy switch!  With their easy-grip handles and durable bristles, they're as useful as they are pretty. 

Use & Care

Apply toothpaste and brush teeth for two minutes.

Sizes

Adult and child sizes available.

Materials

Bamboo handle with nylon bristles.

Packaging

Comes in a compostable paper box and a compostable bioplastic sleeve.

* Please note the 'Child' size will soon be archived from the shop We will continue carrying adult size toothbrushes. You can continue to find the smaller child size directly from Brush With Bamboo. Read more about why we’re making these changes and stock up on other old favorites here.

Sustainably harvested from organic, wild bamboo. Vegan, BPA-free, and certified non-toxic. USDA Certified Bio-Based Product and Green America Certified Business.

At the end of its life, these toothbrushes can be reused as a cleaning brush or a makeup tool like a brow brush. The handle can be composted, and the bristles are the most advanced bio-based option available, but they're still not biodegradable (pig hair is the only alternative, and it's highly controversial), but they can be recycled anywhere that recycles nylon. To separate, pluck bristles out with pliers, or break the head off to dispose of separately. Read more about composting your toothbrush on our blog.
