About Toodo 口腔衛生デバイス
Toodoは、18歳から40歳の成人を対象に設計されたスマート口腔衛生デバイスです。マウスピースはポリウレタンエラストマーゲル製で、極めて変形しやすい素材が毛先(ブラシ)を用いることなく歯の一本一本の表面にフィットします。音波振動ボードとポンプが専用のクリーニングジェルを口腔内に送り込み、内蔵されたコールドライトがジェル中の酸化剤を活性化させて歯をホワイトニングします。ジェルに含まれるカーボン粒子が物理的な洗浄効果を加えます。使用後はデバイスをすすぎ、ケースに収めることで除菌と充電が行われます。

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

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. - Patents
