Production Technology
Wireless charging, 300mah battery in the toothbrush and 1500 mah battery for charging case, sonic motor of 13-15K RPM for the smallest toothbrush body, food grade silicone for toothbrush bristles. Due to its resiliency, non-porous surface and sustainability, food grade silicone is kinda like the Superman of silicones.
Design Challenge
The hardest part was to ensure that PCB and inner electronics would fit into designed model of the toothbrush. Brush body is 20% smaller than most electric toothbrushes available in the market. Our vision was to put sonic motor in the smallest form and we successfully made it.
Research
This toothbrush was a result of investigations into necessities of people with dynamic lifestyle and my own frequent travelling experience. Moreover, personal interest in premium design and products brought us to understanding that market of electric toothbrushes is still conservative, offers similar design with mostly useless features (like bluetooth or multi-mode motors), while batteries remain weak and charging stations stay bulky. Our findings brought us to understanding of opportunity in disrupting market with new design and charging experience. Totally wireless, more hygienic and eco-friendly. Available as a single purchase or by subscription.
Inspiration
AirPods charging case and all things with wireless charging. I am truly inspired by cord-free life and believe that in the nearest future we will see more and more products with wireless charging. Overall, I was always looking for a toothbrush with extended bristles' durability, better hygiene, shape and easy charging. Given my travel-rich lifestyle, I also needed a travel-friendly toothbrush. With Poma, we are willing to reimagine toothbrushing experience and oral care for those with expectations for premium personal care devices and dynamic lifestyle.
Project Duration
This project has started in August 2018.
Operation Flow
Toothbrush has just one mode of brushing, what makes it multi purpose device that doesn't harm gums with extra power and provides gentle yet in-depth brushing experience.
