How To Clean and Maintain your Bamboo Toothbrush?

• Rinse After Use: Immediately after brushing, rinse the bristles thoroughly under warm running water to remove food particles and toothpaste residue. This helps to reduce bacteria buildup and keeps the brush clean.
• Drying: Shake off excess water and store the toothbrush upright in a holder that allows for airflow. Avoid covering the bristles or storing them in a damp environment to prevent mold growth.
• Soap Solution: Once a week, clean the bristles with a small amount of mild soap mixed with warm water. Gently scrub the bristles with your fingers or an old toothbrush to remove any stubborn residue.
• Vinegar Soak: For extra sanitation, soak the bristles in a solution of equal parts white vinegar and water for about 10-15 minutes. Rinse thoroughly afterward.
• Avoid soaking the entire brush in water as this can damage the bamboo handle over time, leading to swelling or cracking.

Replacement Guidelines

Replace your bamboo toothbrush every 2-3 months or sooner if the bristles show signs of wear or if mold develops. Proper disposal involves removing the nylon bristles (which can be recycled) before composting the bamboo handle.
