A sustainable toothbrush designed to combat plastic pollution in our precious oceans, with an impressive lifespan of an entire year!

Did you know, in the United States alone, an estimated one billion plastic toothbrushes are disposed of each year, resulting in a staggering 50 million pounds of plastic waste!
Furthermore, plastic toothbrushes contain detrimental phthalates that have been linked to a host of serious health concerns, including breast cancer, obesity, type II diabetes, male infertility, and more.
To address this critical issue, we developed the Ocean Rebuild ReFresh™ toothbrush; a sustainable and eco-friendly alternative to traditional plastic toothbrushes and an improvement on the basic bamboo toothbrushes.
Meet ReFresh™ – Our Solution
ReFresh™ is the toothbrush that is not only sustainable and eco-friendly but also a true game-changer for our planet! Say goodbye to plastic toothbrushes and even bamboo toothbrushes, as ReFresh™ emerges as the perfect alternative.
We understand the struggles faced by bamboo toothbrush users when it comes to composting. The tedious task of pulling out each individual bristle with pliers every three months can be quite a hassle.
That’s when we had our “aha” moment, and ReFresh™ was born—a revolutionary solution to make your oral care routine both enjoyable and environmentally friendly.
Why Bamboo?
The Ocean Rebuild ReFresh Toothbrush handle is made of premium Moso bamboo which can grow almost a meter in a single day — even more in warmer climates. Bamboo also naturally has antibacterial properties which are perfect for increasing longevity and reducing the nasties growth.
The Design
After dedicating over three years to this endeavor, we have achieved the pinnacle of toothbrush design—a meticulously crafted, ergonomic handle that fits perfectly in your hand, ensuring comfort, functionality, and effectiveness during every brushing session.
Recognizing the common issue with regular bamboo toothbrushes where the handle retains its quality while the bristles wear out, we set out to create a solution.
Our innovative design incorporates durability that can provide a full year of reliable use.
By evenly applying wax throughout the toothbrush, we effectively reduce the likelihood of mold growth, ensuring a long-lasting and hygienic toothbrushing experience.
We even went the extra mile by adding an indentation on the toothbrush head, effectively preventing any accidental detachment of the bristle heads.
Additionally, to add a touch of personality and practicality, we’ve included the Ocean Rebuild ReFresh™ toothbrush handle with three playful and distinctive icons—Turtle, Dolphin, and Whale.
These delightful identifiers not only bring joy but also enhance grip, elevating your brushing experience to new levels of comfort.
The Bristles
Now, let’s delve into the remarkable removable head section. Our toothbrush bristles are exclusively crafted from 100% castor bean oil, ensuring they are completely free from any fossil fuel content. Embracing an eco-friendly and vegan approach, these bristles are also BPA-free, natural, and non-toxic, guaranteeing a safe and healthy choice for your dental hygiene routine.
The Ocean Rebuild ReFresh™ base is a testament to our commitment to sustainability. Expertly crafted from fermented plant starch, it presents an exceptional and far more sustainable alternative to traditional plastic derived from crude oil.
The Packaging
Of course, we haven’t overlooked the packaging. The box itself is crafted from high-quality, premium kraft paper, making it 100% compostable at home, leaving no waste behind.
In each thoughtfully designed box, you’ll discover 1x ReFresh™ toothbrush and 4 eco-friendly bristles, each ready to be switched out every three months.
This comprehensive ReFresh™ package is created to last an entire year, ensuring a sustainable and enduring oral care experience.
Each Purchase Removes 1 Pound of Plastic!
At the core of our values lies a deep concern for the planet’s welfare. Through our unique approach, each toothbrush purchase translates into the extraction of one pound of ocean plastic.
By participating in this endeavor, you can actively promote the well-being of your teeth while making a tangible difference for the environment.
