Moderate Exposure Risk — Why This Product Category Matters

The mouth is one of the most absorptive areas of the body. Toothpaste, mouthwash, and dental products are in contact with oral mucosa for minutes daily. Fluoride, triclosan, artificial sweeteners, microbeads, and synthetic fragrances in conventional oral care products are absorbed directly into the bloodstream through the oral mucosa.

Why We Recommend This Product

RADIUS's bamboo toothbrush replaces plastic with a biodegradable bamboo handle. The BPA-free nylon bristles are the only non-biodegradable component. A simple, effective swap from conventional plastic toothbrushes.
