We make it easy to take great care of your teeth and gums whilst caring for the environment with the new Grin Charcoal-Infused Biodegradable Brush! Our beautifully designed brush is made from sustainable non-GMO corn starch, which means the toothbrush handle is 100% biodegradable.

Alongside brushing the charcoal works to keep bacteria at bay whilst absorbing toxins and restoring the whiteness ofĀ teeth.

compost.

toothbrush wonāt be in landfill for hundreds of years to comeĀ ā unlike many

Please note: Grin toothbrushes are made from corn starch, a naturally occurring material that is robust for personal use, though may not have the strength of a traditional plastic toothbrush. Caution needs to be used when brushing teeth as heavy/hard brushing may cause the head to snap off. Please note that dentists recommend minimal pressure when brushing teeth to avoid issues like receding gums, enamel erosion and increased sensitivity of theĀ teeth.
