The Best Eco-friendly Toothbrush: Radius Review

Radius is the maker of premium sustainable toothbrushes. Their award winning toothbrush designs are very innovative and they look different from your everyday toothbrush. Radius was created to address research that indicates that the major problem in oral hygiene is that of compliance. That is to say, people don’t use toothbrushes for long enough and tend to keep their toothbrush for too long. RADIUS aimed to make the toothbrush comfortable, enjoyable, effective and long lasting. I was provided with a Radius Source eco friendly toothbrush and a Radius Scuba toothbrush so that I could do a review of the Radius Sustainable Toothbrushes.

The Radius toothbrush design was revolutionary – nobody had ever thought of using very fine filaments or of using a large head to lower pressure on the gums. The idea of actually making a handle that responded to the right and left orientation of the world’s population was regarded as scandalous. The toothbrush head was an organic oval shape – the tufts of bristles arranged so that they did not line up in parallel – this meant that they did not repetitively track along the gum line and cause cervical erosion. RADIUS Toothbrushes are designed to last a long time – usually two to three times longer than regular toothbrushes. The handles are larger because we want people to hold the brush lightly and apply low pressure to tooth and gum for healthier tooth and gum results.

Eco-friendly toothbrushes are designed with the environment in mind, aiming to reduce the environmental impact associated with traditional plastic toothbrushes. This eco-friendly toothbrush features natural materials. From the plant-based, biodegradable cellulose toothbrush handle sourced from renewable timber to the vegetable-based nylon bristles, the RADIUS Big Brush is earth-friendly, 100% petroleum free and 100% effective in keeping your smile sparkling.

My husband tried the Scuba Big Brush Toothbrush. It has a nice large head that makes brushing his teeth easy and the handle is really comfortable to hold. My husband is a large man so he can especially appreciate an appropriately sized toothbrush! He is a fan.

Big Brush TOOTHBRUSH Features:

  • Lasts 9 months thereby reducing plastic waste
  • Three times more very fine bristles with wide oval format, massage gums gently
  • Bendy rubber handle absorbs excessive brushing pressure
  • Right or left ergonomic handle ensures dentist recommended 45 º angle of bristle to teeth
  • American Dental Association “Accepted” for prevention of gingivitis and removal of plaque
  • Non-aligned bristle layout to avoid tooth erosion
  • Beautiful Award-winning design

Radius Source Eco Friendly Toothbrush Review:


Radius Source Toothbrush Details

I was enamored with this eco-friendly toothbrush for its green value. I wasn’t even expecting much of a huge difference in the performance. However, it really delivers there too. The good news is that it both environmentally friendly and does a great job on your gums and teeth too.

I brushed my teeth and right away I notice that it felt good on my gums. It felt like I was gently massaging my gums as I brushed instead of scratching them! I brushed extra long just because I liked the way it felt! Not kidding, either. I even pulled out the old toothbrush and tried it just to compare. The Radius just feels so much softer on my gums and yet I could really feel it cleaning and see my teeth sparkling when I was done. I also really liked how comfortable the handle was to hold. I love the Source toothbrush and I love that it has replaceable heads!

RADIUS SOURCE TOOTHBRUSH Features:

  • Beautiful, long-lasting Bio-Plastic handles from recycled dollar bills, wood or flax blended with 100% recycled polypropylene. This is a very eco friendly alternative to most fossil fuel based plastics.
  • Replaceable head, reduces 93% of waste from standard toothbrushes which lowers plastic pollution as well as the cost of brushing
  • Right or left hand configuration ensures dentist recommended 45º angle of bristle to teeth
  • Radial bristling allows brushing in tight spaces
  • Dramatically increases softness and efficacy of brushing with 65% more bristle tufts than ordinary toothbrushes
  • Non-aligned bristle layout to avoid tooth erosion

Another reason these toothbrushes are one of the best options available for eco-friendly toothbrushes is that they reduce environmental pollution be offering replaceable heads so that their is less waste. You will also be happy to know that Radius eco-friendly toothbrushes feature recyclable packaging.

Conclusion

When choosing an eco-friendly toothbrush, it’s essential to consider factors such as the materials used, recyclability, and the company’s overall commitment to sustainability. Additionally, proper disposal methods should be followed to ensure that the toothbrush has the least environmental impact at the end of its life cycle.

Radius has more styles of eco friendly toothbrushes, including kids toothbrushes, and baby toothbrush. They also have the only USDA Certified Organic Silk floss that is 100% biodegradable. Hope you found this Radius toothbrush review helpful!  Check out the radius toothbrushes at radiustoothbrush.com

Radius did provide me with the toothbrushes in the hopes that I would share my honest opinions. I received no monetary compensation and the opinions expressed are my own.
