I've been following this company for years. They used to make you take a mold of your specific teeth and they made a custom device just for your mouth. This seems much better.
> The Silicone sponge is perfectly hygienic. Its completely airy ("open-cell") structure does not keep dirt or bacteria, is easily washable and dries fast.
Yeah right. I reckon it will take just a few seconds to clean your mouth with the sponge, then take forever to get the sponge (almost) clean.
> The Silicone sponge is perfectly hygienic. Its completely airy ("open-cell") structure does not keep dirt or bacteria, is easily washable and dries fast. Silicone is perfectly anti-microbial, no dirt adheres to it.
This sounds like a dubious claim. I've seen dirty sponges with fungus and all sorts growing on them, why should this be any different?
Also what about mineral buildup from hard water? Surely the microbes can adhere to that too.
Also: the solubility of calcium carbonate goes down with increased temperature. Which is why your kettle gets covered in scale, while your toilet and sink generally don't.
Since the brushing process happens at a roughly constant temperature, this is going to behave more like a sink than any appliance that heats cold water and puts out hot.
I wouldn't worry about it if I were to try this. The fact that sponges turn gross in short order would be much higher up my list of reasons to be concerned.
The gumline and immediately under the gum line needs to be cleaned. Also tatar buildup and food particls on tooth carries needs attention. This is a joke product.
> Manual/electric toothbrushes always leave large parts of your denture uncleaned, because your hand does not move them to all places, and not for long enough, and not with the correct movements. This leads to tartar buildup, inflammations, bad breath, caries, periodontosis, and many additional problems.
I have used a Philips electronic toothbrush for over 10 years now and I have never, not once in my life, EVER gotten a cavity. According to this site I should be having cavities and bad breath and should probably just throw out my teeth and get new ones. Bullshit.

Ok sweet! Wheres the clinical proof you have showing this empirically? did you take cultures of the silicone before and after usage? compare them with toothbrush bristles? No? ok...

>We have solved this problem as well, our sponges are 100% easy recyclable. They consist only of easy-to-recycle silicone, and nothing else.
Silicone is not "100%" recyclable. With every recycle it loses more and more structural integrity. I am 100% sure that they are using 100% virgin silicone here and they're not using recycles in their formula, because as they probably know, silicone isn't 100% recyclable.
1. Good for you. But for most people, cleaning is a big problem. Otherwise dentists wouldn't exist.
2. Yes we did. Based on our info and tests over the last 3 years, a European university just started a large clinical study with the Blizzbrush. To examine whether it can even be used in care homes.
3. If you define it this way, then nothing is 100% recyclable, there is always some loss. Your comment seems irrelevant for real life.
This is spam, apparently from someone who can't be bothered to think up of creative usernames when making their spam accounts.
