Bamboo toothbrushes: description, pros and cons, prices

8252

Bamboo toothbrushes belong to the category of environmentally friendly products. They were created according to the patterns of the very first Chinese ones, which were just a bamboo stick split at the end.

Now, of course, they are somewhat more complex in design, but the basic idea remains the same, and, oddly enough, has borne fruit.

Advantages

  1. Soft and fine bristles
    . For people with hypersensitive enamel, for whom any pressure causes discomfort, this product will be to their liking. Thanks to the increased softness and thinness of the bristles, they do not scratch the teeth and cope with their task as painlessly as possible.
  2. Disinfection
    . Bamboo has natural disinfectant properties and is used in many medicines in China. Because of this, there is less chance of picking up an infection from a brush that is stored in non-sterile (and any home is such) conditions.
  3. Hypoallergenic
    . In addition to the fact that the product itself does not cause allergies, it can be used without paste at all, which can relieve the suffering of a person allergic to it.
  4. Massage
    . Any brush massages the gums, but this one does not cause bleeding.
  5. Versatility of use
    . It can even be used for periodontal disease and other gum diseases, which usually make oral care not only undesirable, but also painful.
  6. Flexibility
    . Thanks to the thinness of the bristles, they can penetrate into the most difficult to reach places and clean them too.
  7. Environmental friendliness
    . Once it is no longer usable, it decomposes very quickly, without polluting the already polluted environment.
  8. Various models
    . There are children's ones for kids who, due to their age, would simply be inconvenient to use the adult option. However, the mouth size of children is smaller, and sensitivity to mechanical stress is usually much stronger, so products intended for them are softer than other options.

    It also usually looks much more fun - the design, designed to entertain the child, depicts funny monsters or princesses.

  9. Multivariate
    . There are several types of coating on the bristles, which allows you to further choose. Among them:
  • Gold
    . It is not only hypoallergenic, but also has an anti-inflammatory effect, that is, it can be used by people with gum disease.
  • Silver
    . Recommended for those with bleeding gums and people with tartar. They have an antibacterial effect.
  • Coal
    . It has a powerful antibacterial effect, returns teeth to their original white color (they are recommended for smokers and heavy coffee drinkers) and helps get rid of unpleasant odor.
  • Jade
    . Helps improve immunity and blood circulation, copes well with tartar.

It can also be a plus for children - a funny panda, which is often depicted on packaging.

Antibacterial toothbrushes coated with bamboo charcoal

I haven’t seen a review of toothbrushes on Muska. Maybe I didn’t look well, or maybe no one ordered it. I ordered a set of toothbrushes from Ali. I ordered more out of curiosity. The brushes are antibacterial and bamboo coated, which aroused interest. Moreover, the price for them is not so high for 20 pieces. And their Korean origin also undermined them. Now the seller has charged as much as 2 bucks. now 10.29$

In general, I paid for the item, and a couple of days later I received a track code and a letter from the seller. that thank you, they say, for the order, everything was sent, we wish you all the best and we hope. that you will buy something else from us. Time passed, but the issued track did not get through. 2 weeks later, still unable to get the track, I wrote back to the seller. What kind of nonsense is this, and did he even send the order? In response, I received assurances that everything had been sent, wait, China Post is not working well right now. After waiting another week, the track still did not appear. I wrote again and was a little indignant. The answer is the same. Please wait and we apologize.

I got tired of waiting a few days ago, and wrote to the seller that if the track does not appear anywhere for another week, I will open a dispute and demand a refund. The seller apparently lost his nerve. because I tearfully begged not to open the dispute, but to wait a little longer, and if I don’t get anything, then I will return the money.

And today I was prompted to look in the mailbox, and there was a notice about a parcel from the Middle Kingdom, but the track on it was suspicious, I didn’t have any of those.

In general, I received it, when I picked up the parcel I realized that these same brushes had arrived. In general, questions arose for the seller about why the track had changed and all the time he did not think to look at which track he sent me and did not tell me.

I ordered something from another seller, the parcel was returned to him, due to the well-known holiday and party nonsense in China, so he sent it again and reported a new track.

Well, okay, now the object of review itself.

The box arrived in quite normal shape, a little dented on one side, but not at all.

package


The box itself contained packs of brushes, 2 in each. The hanging ears were bent to fit into the box.

what is inside


Brush handles come in four colors, black bristles, bamboo type. On the back of the package there is an inscription: Made in Korea, and the inscriptions are in gibberish.

turnover


The plastic handles are pleasant to the touch. The multi-colored handle pads are also plastic, not rubber. Doesn't slip, fits comfortably in your hand. The performance is quite decent, I would say, excellent. No burrs or technological irregularities. The handle is quite durable. When cleaning it does not bend, as some have written. The bristles are not hard, but not soft either. Medium hardness. They clean like everyone else, I didn’t notice any peculiarities in cleaning.

more photos


On the plus side: the price, I looked at the prices on the Internet out of curiosity, and was simply amazed by the greed of domestic hucksters. Of the minuses: problems with the track code.

I’m not going to recommend it, let everyone think for themselves whether they need such fashionable bamboo accessories now. I'm happy with the purchase myself.

Flaws


The cons are subjective and are called differently by different people. The most common two are:

  1. Too simple design
    . Buyers complain that the brush looks unpresentable and boring. However, others note with equal enthusiasm that the design is minimalistic and beautiful, that is, it’s all a matter of taste.
  2. Excessive flexibility
    . Some brush models have a very flexible handle, which gets on the nerves of some buyers.
  3. Excessive lightness
    . This is also a very controversial disadvantage, but it is called - it is too easy to hold in your hand, and it seems that it could break at any moment.

Indications for use

  1. Presence of teeth
    . If the buyer has teeth and needs to be cleaned, a bamboo brush will be an excellent solution. It whitens teeth, strengthens enamel, helps get rid of tartar and improve blood circulation. It also doesn’t cause pain – there are enough advantages to make you want to choose it.
  2. Prevention of inflammatory diseases
    . Almost all dental diseases are inflammatory, so using a brush with this effect means not worrying about caries, gingivitis and similar diseases.
  3. High sensitivity of enamel
    . If your teeth are sensitive to hot, cold and the touch of a toothbrush, the bamboo option will be the best because it does not cause pain.
  4. Bleeding gums
    . It won’t cause extra blood, won’t cause pain, and will help prevent infections in wounds – a bamboo toothbrush is definitely a good solution.
  5. Yellow plaque on teeth
    . Charcoal spraying copes with it especially well, returning teeth to their natural white color. Helps even heavy smokers.
  6. Bad breath
    . Bamboo helps get rid of it once and for all, cleaning even the most difficult to reach places
  7. Allergy to brushes and pastes
    . Bamboo is hypoallergenic and does not require the thought that a rash may pop out or suffocation may occur. It can be used even without paste, which can additionally cause allergies.

There are no contraindications for use. Bamboo can be used for any illness (just change it regularly and do not offer it to other people), for hypersensitivity and even for allergies.

The brush will help to naturally and gently lighten the enamel.

A charcoal coating applied to the bristles will make your enamel cleaner and whiter and help remove plaque and tartar. Charcoal has long been famous for its whitening properties and is considered an excellent absorbent, so it can remove minor pigment and even help smokers cope with yellow plaque on their teeth.

On a note!

Due to its porous structure, charcoal has deodorizing properties and perfectly absorbs various odors, so you will always have fresh breath after oral hygiene, even if you do not use aromatic toothpaste along with brushing your teeth. In addition, bamboo gives the brush increased flexibility and plasticity, so its bristles can penetrate even the most inaccessible places and remove the smallest dirt.

Review of the Nano Premium model

When asked in search engines, the first position given is Nanopremium, because it has practically no competitors, either in quality or price.

This brush is made with bamboo charcoal coating.

, causing the stubble to appear black, which may seem unusual. But the handle is made in the shape of a human hand to fit comfortably into it, and on the back side there is a tongue scraper, which must be used every time you brush your teeth, removing the unpleasant plaque that has formed there from it and from the inside of your cheeks.

The length is 19.2 centimeters and does not require special attention to handling. It is enough to rinse the bristles after use, and also store them in a cool, dry place and do not expose them to direct bright sun.

The most interesting thing about this brush is the action. It consists of four main directions.

  1. Antibacterial
    . The properties of charcoal and the properties of bamboo have such an effect that it becomes more difficult for pathogenic bacteria to take root in the oral cavity. They die before the onset of the disease - thus preventing possible inflammation and reducing the likelihood of caries and similar diseases.
  2. Whitening
    . Coal is the best material for this. It rids teeth of yellowish plaque, removes tartar and allows you to get rid of plaque on your teeth, while strengthening the enamel.

    After using it, teeth become whiter and generally healthier - even increased sensitivity is somewhat reduced.

  3. Cleaning
    . Thanks to the thinness and softness of Nanopremium bristles, they reach the most difficult places to clean, cleaning the space between the teeth along with their easily accessible parts.
  4. Scraper
    . Like the brush, it is made soft and comfortable - so that when cleaning the surface of the gums, even with increased sensitivity, a person does not feel any discomfort. It gets rid of plaque on the cheeks and tongue, also reducing the likelihood of inflammatory processes, and helps maintain fresh breath longer.

This brush is well suited for people with gingivitis, swollen gums, bleeding, increased sensitivity to mechanical stress, as well as an increased tendency to inflammatory diseases of the oral cavity.

How much does it cost?

Considering all its advantages, a bamboo toothbrush seems to cost at least a thousand. In fact, the cheapest one can be purchased at a cost of 200 rubles.

– without spraying and a tongue scraper, but with fine and soft bristles.

For 400 you can buy practically the best option - with a minimalist design, with a tongue scraper, with carbon coating, and easy to use.

The price also depends on where you order delivery from. Buy in a store, find it on the back shelf - delivery is free. But ordering from a manufacturing company, that is, from Korea, means paying more for delivery than for the brush itself.

How to properly store and care for them

The basic rules of use differ little from the classical hygienic procedure:

  1. The fibers of this product are soft. But if there is increased sensitivity of the enamel, it is better to immerse it in warm water before using the product, then apply the paste and you can begin cleansing.
  2. When cleaning the inner surface of the dentition, it is worth paying attention to hard-to-reach areas, removing contaminants (germs, plaque and pathogens) from the gums to the end of the tooth.
  3. After cleaning, rinse the brush under running warm water and dry. Do not store it closed, as this may lead to the accumulation of microbes on the fibers.
  4. It is better to make “sweeping” movements, starting from the root of the tooth, moving to its end.
  5. Bamboo devices should be replaced every seven months.
  6. Be sure to change it after an oral infection.

When used correctly, a carbon brush is an excellent alternative to classic oral care devices. The cost of such devices is affordable for users. Due to the large number of advantages, this product is becoming increasingly popular among users. With proper use and storage, effective cleansing can be achieved.

Useful tips

  1. You shouldn't use bamboo for too long.
    The bristles lose their rigidity, become frayed, look like a tangled piece of wire and can no longer cope with their task. Experts recommend changing every three months. But it is necessary to remember that during this time, pathogenic bacteria accumulate on the brush (no matter how antibacterial properties bamboo has, it is not omnipotent).
  2. With carbon spraying they can last longer - up to eight months, since the antibacterial properties of coal are better. But you shouldn’t unnecessarily delay changing them either.
  3. After suffering from infectious diseases (caries, stomatitis), it is worth changing the brush - pathogenic microbes may remain on the bamboo fibers. Moreover, you should not share your toothbrush - you can easily become infected with a whole bunch of other people’s diseases.
  4. Despite the fact that you can use bamboo without toothpaste, it is better not to do this. The best effect is obtained by combining all possible remedies and you should use all options in order to keep your mouth clean and disease-free.

You probably haven’t heard of this yet? The idea of ​​creating a charcoal toothbrush is truly unique. And its uniqueness lies not only in the presence of charcoal on the brush, but also in the material from which the bristles themselves are made. It's probably worth explaining a little here.

Manufacturing

So, generally, nylon is used to make the bristles of toothbrushes all over the world. Its composition varies, and additional impurities are allowed - the main thing is that nylon retains its properties.

Our brushes with Nylon 612 are new generation toothbrushes! Bamboo fiber is used as an admixture in nylon. The properties of nylon are preserved, and, moreover, there is one huge advantage - the resulting polymer becomes biodegradable. This property has long been used in medicine, for suturing, and also for making toothbrushes (and nets too). For comparison, we can say that in general, polymers that fall into the ground take about 150 years to decompose. This is a huge figure, especially considering how many products made from this material, including toothbrushes, end up in landfills around the world every year. But new, biodegradable polymers manage to decompose in the ground in literally 3 years. Agree that this is an ingenious solution for keeping the environment clean. In addition, a toothbrush with bamboo fiber cleans much more effectively.

Bamboo charcoal in a brush

In addition to the unique polymer composition of the bristle material, a toothbrush with charcoal has another feature - carbon spraying. What does this give? A lot of things! After all, in essence, what is coal?

Coal is, firstly, a natural material.

Secondly, it is an excellent antiseptic.

Thirdly, it is an excellent absorbent.

And, fourthly, it is a wonderful whitening material.

Moreover, having all these beneficial properties, charcoal is absolutely harmless to tooth enamel. Therefore, to effectively clean your teeth of plaque, there is simply no better way to find a toothbrush with charcoal. Coal coating on the bristles acts as an excellent absorbent for absorbing bacterial waste products. At the same time, charcoal is also an antiseptic, so the oral cavity after using such a brush remains absolutely clean, and unpleasant odors are simply eliminated.

Bristle geometry

The shape of the bristles on a charcoal toothbrush also has its own characteristics. The bristles are arranged in the form of two steps, differing in pile height. Moreover, the shorter fibers are rounded at the ends, while the longer ones, on the contrary, have a sharp shape. This structure of the bristles leaves no chance for tartar, caries deposits, or food debris, even in hard-to-reach places. Sharp long bristles will clean everything and everywhere, and short ones will clean up after them.

Keep in mind that a charcoal toothbrush is a serious multifunctional tool. Its purpose is to bring the teeth and oral cavity into complete order in all directions: to whiten, clean tartar, and remove plaque. Therefore, this brush is recommended for use by those who have strong, healthy teeth and healthy microflora in the mouth.

A bamboo brush has a very gentle effect on your gums. If you still experience discomfort when using it, you feel that the brush is too prickly or injures your gums, consult your dentist about the possibility and advisability of its further use.

If you have healthy gums, then using a bamboo brush will only bring the pleasant sensation of a light massage, which, by the way, will also be an excellent prevention of bleeding gums.

The presence of carbon coating on the bristles makes this brush truly unique. It is very good if you also use toothpaste similar to the brush, that is, with charcoal. What will it give? Yes all! Everything you need for healthy gums, teeth and oral cavity. Charcoal, as we said above, perfectly absorbs bacterial waste products, plus it whitens perfectly, plus it gives shine to teeth, plus it eliminates odors and acts as an antiseptic.

A bamboo charcoal toothbrush is a unique modern tool for caring for your teeth, which will bring you and your loved ones health and beauty for a long time.

Origin story


The Chinese were the first to use bamboo brushes. At that time, this product was an ordinary bamboo stick with split ends.

Such devices had to be changed quite often, as they wore out and lost their functionality. By 1498, Siberian boar bristles were used in the production of bamboo brush cleaning heads.

The first analogue of a modern toothbrush using bamboo fibers was created in 1937. To this day, such products have not lost their popularity.

One of the newest inventions in the field of dentistry is a nanobrush, the head of which is made using bamboo fiber bristles.
