Ultralite Toothbrush

[Odd Man]

Jordan did it to save plastic and costs, and added bonus for ULers.

Ultralite toothbrush - Jordan Oral Care

A lightweight and efficient toothbrush from Jordan, with a weight of only 9,2 grams. Inspired by an active and Scandinavian lifestyle.

The handle is too long to fit in my wash kit bag .....

I use one of these:

Humble Brush Kids - white, ultra-soft

The world’s most sold bamboo toothbrush. Eco friendly and socially responsible oral care designed by dentists. Each brush sold helps a child in need.

5.5g with no sawing required. Still long enough to feel usable but I bet it'd fit in @cathyjc's wash bag. The bristle head is obviously smaller than a standard adult toothbrush though, so that may or may not be your thing. No problem for me.
Well done to Jordan for working to reduce their plastic usage though.

I have these (6.5g)

Thumbprint Toothbrush

Our Thumbprint Toothbrush is perfect for ultralight backpacking. With an easy grip short handle and a colorful vented cover, this is the ideal way to keep your teeth clean in the backcountry.

I'm sorted thanks.
A couple of mins with a hack saw sees me OK.
Agree on the reducing the plastic tho'.

Bamboo probably better than less plastic?

I also cut mine down so it fit in my pouch better.
The litesmith looks good, but from the US though.
The bristles on the bamboo brush I bought are too soft for my liking.

I've been using a 3/4 length tesco value one. Cut to fit in my ziplock and weighs 5g.

Mines 4.9g

Just in case ..

Mine are ones given out on flights. Formerly Qatar economy freebies, now a heavier (9g!) Thai business class kit one. Plastic, but going in the bin anyway if left on the plane, sadly.

Not sure about those thumbprint toothbrushes - it took a few years to learn not to stuff my grubby fingers in my mouth

I like to go extra ultralight

Travel brush for me from Emirates business class wash bag on our last big holiday abroad before covid. (not my teeth above I hasten to add )

My Qatar Airlines one is 5g, going to pull out some bristles later.

Should get a couple of new ones later this year

Bristles? Use body hair to floss instead.

As an aside, strongly recommend the '78 version of invasion of the body snatchers. Deeply creepy.
