Light Therapy Toothbrushes

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

'Bristl' Combines Sonic Vibration and Light Therapy for Oral Health

— April 11, 2018 — Lifestyle
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.
Trend Themes
1. Light Therapy Oral Care - The combination of light therapy and oral care presents disruptive innovation opportunities for improved oral health and hygiene.
2. Multifunctional Toothbrushes - Toothbrushes with multiple modes and functionalities have the potential to revolutionize oral care routines by offering a range of benefits in a single device.
3. Smart Oral Health Gadgets - The integration of smart features such as built-in timers and subscription services in oral health gadgets opens up avenues for personalized and convenient oral care experiences.
Industry Implications
1. Oral Care Products - The oral care products industry can explore the incorporation of light therapy technology and multifunctional features to develop innovative toothbrushes and oral hygiene solutions.
2. Skincare Gadgets - Skincare gadget manufacturers can expand into the oral care market by leveraging their expertise in light therapy technology to create toothbrushes with skin-health-like benefits.
3. Health Tech Subscription Services - Health tech companies can explore the subscription-based model to offer regularly updated toothbrush heads and personalized oral care plans for consumers.
