A toothbrush injury in 2001
In 2001 a toddler in the founders' family fell while chewing on a hard plastic toothbrush, and it punctured the soft palate of his mouth. His grandmother, Sandra Phillips, and his aunt Heather Phillips, a dental hygienist, set out to design a toothbrush that could not cause that injury. The result was a flexible silicone toothbrush with no hard parts.
Baby Banana is still a family business. It has since added a pink version, a corn cob teether-toothbrush, a toddler training brush without handles and the larger-handled HERO Banana adaptive brush.
Which brushes come from New York and which from China
The company's FAQ says its products "are manufactured in NY, USA, Taiwan, China and India." It names the imports: "The Unicorn, Dragon and Lil Squish Jellyfish are made in China, and the blanket is manufactured in India." It does not say which item comes from Taiwan.
The Pink, Yellow and Corn Cob infant toothbrush pages each read "Made in the USA." The Toddler Toothbrush and HERO Banana Brush pages on Baby Banana's own site give no origin, though their retail listings say made in the USA. Check the package on those two, and skip the Unicorn, Dragon and Jellyfish brushes if you want US-made.
