Hereare five ways you can be a little gentler on the planet, simply in how youbrush your teeth!
Usea BubbleBrush
Insteadof a toothbrush that is made from single-use plastics, make the simple and easyswitch to an environmentally friendly toothbrush from BubbleBrush. The easy-to-grip bamboo handle iscompletely compostable, and the soft bristles are entirely recyclable whenyou’re done.
Usingan environmentally friendly toothbrush made from bamboo is a seamless changethat you can make to your daily routine, meaning one less plastic that you’veused and discarded into the environment.
Wealso make sure that the bamboo we use is sustainable and renewable, whileplastic produces much pollution during its manufacturing methods. This is yetanother way in which BubbleBrush can lower your carbon footprint.
Turnthe tap off when brushing your teeth
Manypeople have a bad habit of leaving the tap on while brushing their teeth.However, the amount of water that is wasted in two to three minutes everymorning and night is more than you might think!
Youonly really need water at the start of the teeth brushing process, and at theend to rinse, so remember to turn the tap off when you’re brushing.
Swapto eco-friendly toothpaste
Hereat BubbleBrush, we don’t just stick to our environmentally friendly toothbrush– we also have eco-friendly toothpaste coming very soon, supplied in tabletform.
Toothpastetablets deliver the same oral and dental health benefits as the stuff you getin a tube, except that they can be packaged in recyclable or reusable pots,doing less damage to the environment.
Toothpastetablets are a toothpaste formula that is pressed into a pill shape. To use ourkid's tablet toothpaste, pop it in your mouth and chew, or mix with a littlewater to break it down into a paste, and then brush as normal.
Usecompostable floss
Ifyou usually floss after brushing, or if you are throwing away your oldtoothbrushes, don’t just throw your rubbish into any old plastic bag.Compostable bin bags are an easy switch for your bathroom bin, reducing theamount of plastic that you throw away. But why not go one step further and usefloss which is also entirely compostable. Keep checking in with BubbleBrushbecause we are soon launching this exact product.
Switchoff lights when not needed
Ifyour bathroom has a window, why do you need to turn the light on to brush yourteeth in the morning? Before picking up your environmentally friendlytoothbrush, open the bathroom blinds to let in the morning sunshine instead.
Andif you do need to turn the light on, remember to turn it off when you’re done.Not only will this help you to be more eco-friendly in your household, but itwill also reduce your electricity bill.
