Peel off 1 cm of bark from the tip, chew gently until bristles form, then brush gently up and down. Works with or without toothpaste.

Each stick lasts 2-3 weeks with regular use. Simply trim the used bristles and peel fresh bark to expose new ones.

It replaces your plastic toothbrush. Many people use it on its own, others together with their usual toothpaste. Dentists recommend fluoride toothpaste for protection against cavities, so you are welcome to keep using yours.

A mild, earthy flavor with subtle freshness from the natural essential oils. Most people find it pleasant and refreshing after the first use.

The natural fibres are soft, and many people find them gentle. Brush lightly and don't scrub along the gums. If you have very sensitive teeth or gums, ask your dentist first, and see your dentist if anything feels sore.

Sustainably harvested from Salvadora persica trees. Each stick is hand-selected, vacuum-sealed for freshness, and shipped directly to you.
