Dentists (like our founders) and hygienists recommend changing your brush or brush head every 3-4 months to maintain good oral health. The problem with this is that over 1 BILLION plastic toothbrushes are being thrown into landfill or the ocean as a result.
Our mantra is that we are designed by dentists to be good for you AND the planet. So we wanted to solve this problem to give you a healthy smile and give the planet a healthy ocean!
This is why we created the 100% plant-based and fully compostable PÄRLA Bamboo Toothbrush. Unlike most brushes on the market, not only is our handle made of the most sustainable Moso Bamboo, but our bristles (normally containing plastic even in most bamboo brushes) are 100% plant-based – made from castor beans.
This means our Bamboo Toothbrush and bristles can be fully composted at home!!
We have taken out the bad stuff and only left in what your smile - and the planet - need to stay healthy!
Wild Moso bamboo is a specific type of bamboo which grows a metre a day without the need for pesticides or fertiliser and with very little water. Thus for us it was the only option when choosing our sustainable PÄRLA BRUSH handle material.
This specific type of bamboo has been named “panda-friendly” as pandas do not eat it or inhabit the region where it grows.
As it comes from the soil it can go back to the soil and be fully composted at home (although industrial composting will always be quicker!)
It’s all about the toothbrush head when it comes to brushing well! We wanted a smaller head with rounded edges that could access even the most hard to reach parts of the mouth.
We also wanted the PÄRLA BRUSH to have a strong design and look beaut on your bathroom shelf and we think we nailed that too!
Expensive but very good
Great to have a toothbrush that can be recycled or upcycled
We love these toothbrushes in my family. The bristles are just the right softness, and the small head get in all the little gaps. The great thing is that the whole toothbrush is compostable! We just put them in our compost bin when they are finished 😊
I love the size of the head please don't make it bigger. The small size is perfect for brushing right to the back of the mouth. Please stock this toothbrush in Boots!
Had reservations about this brush as some eco brushes are just too soft and don't clean very well but this one's just right. It's firm enough which is brilliant for me. It really feels like it's doing the job and leaves my mouth feeling clean, buy it's not so firm that your gums bleed! My teeth do appear whiter but this could be down to a new toothpaste (not parla toothpaste) I've used it for a few weeks and its still in good condition. I would recommend and will be buying replacements when this one is due to be renewed.
