About Toodo Perangkat Kebersihan Mulut

Toodo adalah perangkat kebersihan mulut pintar yang dirancang untuk orang dewasa berusia 18 hingga 40 tahun. Bagian penahan mulutnya dibuat dari gel elastomer poliuretana, material yang sangat lentur sehingga mampu menyesuaikan diri dengan permukaan setiap gigi tanpa memerlukan bulu sikat. Papan getaran sonik dan sebuah pompa mengalirkan gel pembersih khusus ke dalam mulut, sementara cahaya dingin yang tertanam di dalamnya mengaktifkan agen pengoksidasi pada gel untuk memutihkan gigi. Partikel karbon dalam gel memberikan efek pembersihan secara fisik. Setelah digunakan, perangkat dibilas lalu diletakkan dalam wadah khusus untuk proses disinfeksi dan pengisian daya.

Through fine-tuning and modifying every part of the product to optimize for the tooling and molding process, the product set eventually meets the IP56 standard.
Research
Bristle is the culprit for damaging gum and enamel. Users need to learn to use the Bass Method for effective cleaning, but because of the various stiffness of the bristle and different habits for different users, bad habits will eventually cumulate to cause serious oral issues.

85% of Americans believe that oral health is very or extremely important to their overall health. 49% Half of Americans are somewhat satisfied with their overall oral health. Only 15% of Americans believe their oral health is excellent. 42% of Americans don’t see a dentist as often as they would like.
Inspiration
Having a shining grin is a window to a soul, whether it is in an external social environment or in the establishment of self - confidence, it plays an essential role. People are paying more and more attention to the health of their teeth. As a result, oral hygiene is evolving to be a sensual expression of fashion and life attitude. The most traditional way of cleaning the oral cavity is using a toothbrush; however, the bristle structure is the breeding bed of nourishing bacteria.
Project Duration
Started 2017 in Syraucse and finished full functional prototype in 2019.
Operation Flow
The user bites on the mouthpiece, and the device automatically starts to operate. The cleaning gel is pumped by the pump through the vibration motor board to the user’s oral cavity; the cold light illuminates the oxidizing agent to activate the whitening; the carbon particles in the gel work with sonic vibration for physical cleaning.

After use, the user spits out the gel and rinses the mouth. The device is rinsed with water and placed in a case for disinfection and charging, ready for next use.
