Description: The unique Source toothbrush is manufactured in the USA by Radius, a specialist toothbrush manufacturer who has been making toothbrushes for over 20 years. Not only do you save money with brush heads that can be replaced, you reduce the impact on the environment at the same time by not contributing more plastic to landfill. The replaceable heads consume only 20% of the material of standard toothbrushes and are small enough to discard. This is probably the most environmentally friendly toothbrush in the world! The bioplastic handle of the toothbrush is made from recycled wood & plastic (100% renewable resource) and is shaped for ease of use – ideal for anyone with manual dexterity problems such as arthritis sufferers. The handle will last forever - you only throw the heads away. The brush head can be aligned to suit either right or left handed people. The large brush heads are available in either soft or medium and feature radial bristling which gives a substantial bristle tip area for a small head size. This makes brushing the teeth and gums more effective. The replaceable head is lightweight and made from tough, unbreakable crystalline nylon with 3,080 Tynex nylon bristles. It dramatically increases softness and efficacy of brushing with 65% more bristle tufts than ordinary toothbrushes. The Source toothbrush is packed using recyclable cardboard and SmartCycle clear packaging material, 50% of which is derived from recycled drink bottles. How to replace the brush head Simply pull the shaft of the head away from the handle with a sharp tug and the head will detach. Place the connector of the new head into the socket of the handle and push into the handle until a positive click is felt and the head is fully seated. It is recommended that brush heads are replaced after 90 days (3 months). Click here to buy replacment heads. Testimonial "I’m a big fan of my Source toothbrush. The head is bigger than my old toothbrush, but not overly so. It’s comfortable to hold, and the bristles are really soft. Big thumbs up from me." www.low-impact.net/index.php/20080720/a-greener-toothbrush |
