We love these toothbrushes because the bristles are mainly made of castor bean oil, a renewable vegetable oil. Whilst they still use some nylon, they are the most plastic free brushes I’ve found.

If that wasn’t enough, another reason why I love Truthbrush is that they plant a tree for every order.
