How To Use A TwigBrush
The TwigBrush comes in a compact, hygienic container and is vacuum-sealed for cleanliness and freshness.
Upon opening, it has a distinct, somewhat unusual scent that is described as "earthy" or "spicy" and will not linger on your breath or be noticeable to others.
The TwigBrush is a chemical-free alternative with no additives and comes pre-hydrated in its seal, so you can use it immediately after opening the package.
Instructions
1. Open the seal and rinse the twig.
2. Trim back half an inch of the bark to reveal the inner fibrous bristles.
3. Nibble gently on the exposed end until it forms bristles.
4. Brush as usual—rinse the twig after each use
5.Repeat —trim the frayed portion every 2-3 days to expose fresh bark once the flavor subsides and the bristles become worn out.
No toothpaste is needed when using the TwigBrush; simply rinse the twig and use it until it is fully consumed.
This process, while strange at first, will result in a small brush-like tool that leaves your mouth feeling clean and fresh after each use.
Why It Works
TwigBrush is a type of miswak, a natural teeth-cleaning twig derived from the Salvadora persica tree.
Ancient Islamic literature documents over 70 known benefits of miswak. While not all of these benefits have been scientifically studied, some have been validated through modern research.
The natural benefits of TwigBrush include:
Antiseptic properties:
contains natural antiseptics that help kill harmful microorganisms, such as those causing bad breath.
Silica:
This abrasive material helps remove stains from teeth.
Sodium bicarbonate:
Known for its stain-removing properties.
Resin:
The natural resin in miswak forms a protective layer over the enamel, acting as a shield to protect teeth.
The TwigBrush contains naturally scented oils that serve two functions: they freshen breath by perfuming the mouth and stimulate saliva flow, which aids in fighting plaque and bacteria.
Additional Tips
TwigBrush offers a unique experience, for those that want a chemical free detox lifestyle.
Maneuvering the twig to clean the back teeth may take some practice, you'll get the hang of it in a couple days.
The overall result is positive, with the mouth feeling fresh and clean.
Bad breath comes from bacteria in the mouth especially the tongue. So to ensure optimum fresh breath make sure to scrub your tongue with the TwigBrush.
But if you want more ease we recommend getting our double edge tongue scraper.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does one TwigBrush Last?
Each TwigBrush is roughly 7 inches so you get about 10-14 trims from each Twig until its fully gone. If you use it twice per day, one TwigBursh can last up to 2-3 weeks on average
Why do I have to trim my TwigBrush?
the TwigBrush works like a pencil, after 2-3 days of daily use (6-9 sessions) the bristles start to become worn out and the anti-bacterial properties of the miswak subdue. Therefore you trim the top and cut 1/2 of the bark to expose new and fresh bristles.
