WooBamboo! - The Best Toothbrush Name Ever!

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.

Have you ever thought about how many toothbrushes get thrown away each year?  Yeah, me neither, but apparently the number is over 2 BILLION!  Which is actually pretty low considering the 6 billion people in the world, and recommendations that toothbrushes be replaced every three months (which I don't do and I guess neither does most of the world...)  A toothbrush is small, but 2 billion toothbrushes is a lot to put in a landfill.


Enter WooBamboo!  The exclamation point is in the product title, which makes me happy because I love punctuation.  I may not use it accurately, but I love it.  WooBamboo! is a toothbrush made of Bamboo.  Well the handle is made of bamboo, the bristles are made of nylon.  Bamboo bristles would probably suck.

So the toothbrush is ecologically sound, but does it brush well?

The answer is yes.  I will be honest, it feels really weird to be brushing your teeth with wood.  I was a little nervous I would get splinters in my lips, even though I knew I wouldn't.  The toothbrush doesn't have any little rubber bristles, which I am pretty accustomed to now, but probably are not very eco-friendly.  All in all, its like a toothbrush.  I am not really very particular about toothbrushes, if they scrub my teeth I am happy.

You can buy a WooBamboo! toothbrush online by clicking on the link.  They cost $4.95.

You can follow them on Twitter and Facebook.

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.
