## Description

If you receive Gaia Guy's pet toothbrushes by mistake, please contact me on desertcart, social media @higaiaguy, or on my site so I can make this right. I will always strive to serve my customers who support sustainable solutions. desertcart really mixed up this recent shipment, and I can't get them to fix it. YOUR SEARCH FOR A TOTALLY NATURAL BRISTLE TOOTHBRUSH IS OVER!Gaia Guy knew our zero waste customers and friends wanted a truly planet-based solution. Let's face it as nice as nylon is we don't need to use to brush our teeth. Boar bristles have been used for centuries and are still used in many brushes so it just makes sense to use these hygienic and less abrasive natural fiber bristles. The bristles are either sheared and used or often are saved from the landfill after boars have been dispatched for meat purposes. You are saving these natural boar hair bristles from creating methane gases. Thank you! A few more reason to click add to cart. ► A solid, smooth and gorgeous piece of bamboo. Not laminate so no glue here.► Boar bristles also contain no glue and a stuck straight into the handle. ► Paper packaging which is compostable, recyclable and totally reusable so give it another life. Finally a way to start and finish your day without dreading the inevitable plastic discard that comes every few months with regular toothbrushes. Get your Bamboo & Boar Bristle Toothbrush 6-pack today. PLEASE NOTE: This is a totally natural product and as such it doesn't act like plastic toothbrushes. As you can see from the feedback, some bristles come out as the natural bamboo brush is getting sort of set to climate and moisture. Bamboo expands in humid air and can then contract when it gets dry. Do not buy if you aren't able to simply remove a few bristles from your mouth that may fall out. However, if you can stay the sustainable course and keep brushing then it seems to find a balance and you can brush away as vigorously as you like.

Review: Good brush, but sheds - June 2020: Pro: The handle is very comfortable The bristles are not soft, more hard/medium. Bristles get softer with time. Teeth feel well brushed. Con: The bristles shed and spread out early. It seems that the bristles won't last long. This is my first time using a Boar Bristles, so I'm not sure if this is normal. April: 2021: I have used all of the brushes. The pack lasted me 10 months. I changed the brush about every 2 months, instead of the plastic 3 month because the bristles do wear down more than the plastic alternative. This should be expected: it is made of hair, not plastic. Each new brush does shed during the first use, but considering that the product is biodegradable and prevents yet another plastic brush entering the landfill, it's worth a couple hairs in my mouth. Honestly, some brushes shed one hair and others shed four. It's a minor nuisance. I purchased another pack and plan to use them moving forward because they are good quality. As far as I know, this is the only toothbrush that is completely compostable. Note: I went to the dentist last month and was praised for my oral health. Prior to the boar brushed, I used a cheap electric toothbrush. I've always taken care of my teeth, but this was one of the few times I was complemented by a dental professional. These brushes paired with eco friendly floss have helped me maintain my oral health just as well (if not better) than plastic products.
Review: Great product, made with care. - I really love this product. This is a very great nontoxic swap for anyone who is looking to do that. All clean material that this toothbrush is made with. And no, the bristles do not hurt my mouth nor gums at all. The bristles are durable just as the handle as well. This is worth the money as it is actually made with no plastic, not even the actual container it comes in. Its appearance is pretty average, it’s just a bamboo handle that is straight with no grooves and a logo at the bottom engraved. Id say it’s slightly heavier than that of an average plastic toothbrush, but is the same size and that doesn’t effect its use negatively. Only thing I can say that may be negative is a few of the bristles do shed in the beginning of use, but nothing dramatic or significant. Overall, I recommend this product to everyone and think that it is a good swap for the typical plastic made toothbrushes.

## Features

- 100% BIODEGRADABLE: No nylon (ie petroleum) in this toothbrush. Finally a completely earth-friendly natural bristle bamboo toothbrush. For those who want a totally planet-based product to go with their zero waste and sustainable lifestyle. No nylon means no petroleum and you can feel good about tossing this into the woods, burying it in your compost or upcycling into a plant marker or anything your creative mind can think of.
- RENEWABLE RESOURCES: Gaia Guy is proud to offer a bamboo handle and boar bristle toothbrush. It's the ultimate natural and renewable resource based toothbrush to help you start and finish every day feeling good about your commitment to living as close to nature as you possibly can.
- ECO-FRIENDLY PACKAGING: Just like Gaia Guy's vegan-friendly bamboo toothbrush you are getting a quality toothbrush with great reviews and minimal and compostable eco-friendly packaging. Actually this paper-tube is a handy little pencil case or get creative and reuse! No non-woven packaging either these are just 6 beautiful boar bristle toothbrushes in a paperboard tube.
- BEAUTIFUL BOAR BRISTLES: A truly sustainable way to brush your teeth. These natural boar bristle toothbrushes come from a special breed of boar. The bristles are carefully harvested and then boiled to make them straighter and super hygienic.
- CLEAN & GREEN: These are less abrasive than nylon bristles which means your teeth get clean but you don't ruin your tooth enamel. These black bristles are about the same as medium nylon toothbrush as far as firmness goes. You get a good cleaning while not scratching or hurting your gums. Gaia Guy's Bamboo and Boar bristle natural toothbrush will not only make your smile better, but the planet better too.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How can it be 100% biodegradable if there is a metal staple?**
A: I appreciate you taken the care and time to think about it and ask. It would seem that the tiny staple is fairly innocuous. Somewhat like tea bags that have a staple. From what others have said "I wouldn't worry too much about a few steel staples in my compost; I'm confident they will readily corrode and won't make any significant difference to the chemical composition of my garden, or my health (after eating the harvest). Iron oxides are already generally abundant in soil.

Also another happy Gaia Guy user did some research and said, " looked into the possible negative impacts rusting metal could have on soil, and it's minimal to zero. It would have to be a lot to make any serious negative impact. And the amount is these toothbrushes (or almost any toothbrush) appears to be ok from what I've read...to toss in your composter. From what I gather, you'd have to throw a ton of them to make even a dent." 

I hope that helps a bit and thank you for your support.

**Q: Where is it made?**
A: These are made in China. However, the stock is in the USA either at Amazon or at another fulfillment center and so it ships fast.

**Q: Is the bamboo sealed/finished? If so, what type of oil, resin, or sealant is used?**
A: No finish on it. If it is kept dry it shouldn't need any. I have heard of some doing their own natural sealant ie beeswax. Thank you!

**Q: How are the bristles attached to the handle? Manufacturers usually use clips, glue, or wire inside the toothbrush head to secure them. Thank you!**
A: No glue. There is sort of like a metal staple that holds each bundle in. I hope that helps.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great brushes they last 6-8 weeks for me
*by P***L on January 27, 2026*

I have used these for the past 6 months. Each brush has lasted between 6-8 weeks before they became too soft to use. When you first get them they are quite stiff but give it 10 days or so and you’ll feel them soften up. I actually look forward to using the stiffer brush when I switch brushes I do use a tooth powder, not a paste and I tap it as dry as possible after each use I have had a couple of loose bristles but nothing too terrible or memorable maybe 1-2 at a time, not losing half the head or anything. They get my teeth very clean The biggest adjustment for me has been that the head of the toothbrush is quite wide so fitting it between my cheek and back teeth also took some adjust to as well.
