Dr Hisham's Biofunctional Bamboo Gum & Toothbrush - sustainable toothbrush in biobamboo

This professionally designed toothbrush combines advanced ergonomics, gentle bristle technology and environmental responsibility in one product. The handle is made from sustainably grown bamboo that is biodegradable and compostable, developed as an alternative to traditional plastic toothbrushes that globally account for billions of waste units each year. The unique rounded shape provides a comfortable grip regardless of hand size and optimal control during plastering.

The bristles are ultra-soft, densely packed and rounded at the tips to clean effectively while treating gums and enamel gently. The flat bristle profile provides an even contact surface with the teeth and can contribute to better plaque removal with correct brushing technique. The bamboo is heat treated at approx. 200 °C without fumigation with methyl bromide, which distinguishes the production from conventional bamboo processing. The handle can be composted after use by cutting off the bristles first.
