In the same way that many handheld skincare gadgets leverage the power of light therapy to kill bacteria and improve the health of the skin, 'Bristl' is an electric toothbrush that is enhanced with powerful light therapy technology.
On top of boasting sonic vibrations, the toothbrush has the ability to provide additional oral care benefits thanks to three modes. While the blue light mode kills disease-causing oral bacteria and whitens teeth over time, the purple light mode is useful for killing germs, fighting cavities and also whitening the teeth. The third and final mode offered by the Bristl toothbrush is a red light that promotes the production of collagen, the regeneration of gum tissue, while also providing anti-inflammatory and gum disease.
Bristl will also be appealing to consumers for its built-in timer, rechargeable batteries and a subscription service for routinely replacing brush heads.
