Goodwell toothbrush- An eco-friendly, long-lasting, smart solution for a healthy mouth

How often have you coveted for a durable, multifaceted toothbrush, you need not change at all?! Over a zillion times I bet! Amen! Your wish is now a reality- solely attributed to the brainchild of Patrick Triato of Goodwell company, who has devised this unique toothbrush kit to suit every need, calling it the 'modern toolkit for the mouth'.

What's so unique?- This toothbrush has an handle made of medical-grade aluminium, to last forever with interchangeable heads made of polished bamboo composite. The kit comes with interchangeable attachments- toothbrush head, flosser and tongue-scraper. The bristles of the toothbrush are made of Binchotan charcoal (Japanese charcoal). These features make the attachments bio-degradable and thus, eco-friendly. Surprisingly, this toothbrush is hollow, wherein, one can store matchsticks, pills, toothpicks etc. in it, by just unscrewing the handle.

Adding to its magnanimity, is its open source design system where one can design ones personalized attachments. To top this, it is even equipped with a data tracker, boasting of an accelerometer and micro-controller to track brushing habits. Brainiac Patrick Triato! Different value packs are available to accord to ones needs.

Current status: It is currently being crowd-funded on Crowdsupply to meet the $12,500 mark to begin production, and has managed to lure $3,942 so far. More 13 days left to start production. After that say NO to PLASTIC.

This is one unconventional piece of work that requires attention! So, in order to place your orders, help raise funds, or if you want to know more about this product, check this link https://www.crowdsupply.com/goodwell/toothbrush

  2. You can dispose it in compost pits. Serves as manure for plants. These charcoal bristles are made from Binchotan charcoal obtained from oak-wood with a very thin layer of nylon covering it. Nylon is bio-degradable. Takes around 30-40 years.
