First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study compared bacteria on charcoal-infused toothbrushes versus standard nylon ones. 36 healthy adults and children used each brush for one day and one week, then returned them for lab testing. Researchers counted the bacteria to see if charcoal bristles stay cleaner. The goal was to find out if eco-friendly charcoal toothbrushes are a more sanitary option for daily oral care.
