Problem
Our health suffers because toothbrushes are not precise enough. Every year, billions of people worldwide suffer from dental diseases - according to the WHO, 3.5 billion are affected. Nearly everyone experiences caries at least once in their life, and in our home market of Germany, about 85% of the population is affected by periodontitis. Most dental diseases are caused by areas in the mouth that are hard to clean—such as interdental spaces, gum margins, and the area around the last molar—where traditional toothbrush bristles simply can’t reach. As a founding team of engineers, designers, and dental surgeons, we see these numbers as a clear sign that current oral hygiene standards are far from optimal.
Lösung
With our new acoustic dental cleaning device, we aim to challenge the established methods of oral care. We integrated two technologies in our mouthpiece to cleans and scan your teeth simultaneous. The cleaning technology is based on ultrasonic waves and due to this we reach 99% of all tooth surfaces - even in the interdental spaces. Combined with our scanning technology based on light we can see if there are residues left on the surface or some dental issues like caries are developing. This superiority of the combined technologies help users to keep their mouth hygiene to highest levels.
Produkt
Our acoustic dental cleaner eliminates the stress of ensuring proper technique or monitoring cleaning time due to the automated cleaning and you can even do it hands-free. Our product portfolion consists of a starter system as a one-time purchase. This starter system will be complemented by a single mouthpiece, tooth paste and a smartphone app with premium features as recurring purchases.
Alleinstellung
1. Deep cleaning - By utilizing cavitation via ultrasound our approach cleans ~99% of all tooth surfaces, by effectively reaching interdental surfaces. Any other brush on the market cannot reach interdental spaces and therefore only clean up to 80% of surfaces, which results in higher bacterial load, more caries cavities and gum diseases. By cleaning more thoroughly dentson can prevent these dental diseases much more effectively.2. Saving costs – Being able to clean ~99% of all tooth surfaces additionally results in far less formed tartar deposits. Therefore, the expected need for professional dental cleaning for our users is far less. 3. Automatic – Our device cleans automatically and hands-free, making it easier to keep up with dental routines even if time for our customers is short or motoric skills are limited.
4. Advanced analysis – Apart from cleaning technology dentson also integrates a smart monitoring system into its product.
Geschäftsmodell
Dentson positions itself as an expert in the use of ultrasound for maintaining oral health. Our company plans to enter the market with the first acoustic dental cleaner, a device that cleans exclusively using ultrasound technology, rather than bristles like all competing productscurrently available. Compared to conventional oral hygiene devices (such as electric toothbrushes), this approach offers significantly improved cleaning performance, providing a deep cleaning to almost every area of the teeth and thus preventing cavities and periodontitis
much more effectively. The results achieved can be compared to the combined use of toothbrush, dental floss, and mouthwash, but in significantly less time. Our team plans to launch this product to private consumers in Germany through our own online
shop in February 2027 first.

Kunde / Markt
We focus on the German market first – Germany is our entry market and generates annual sales of €247 million with electric toothbrushes (our reference), spread across an estimated 3 million toothbrush sales. The market is dominated by an oligopoly of major manufacturers, namely Oral B (52%), Dr. Best (17%), and Philips (13%). Compared to other European countries, consumers in Germany have above-average purchasing power, and the German market accounts for roughly a quarter of the entire European market. For these reasons, we see Germany - our home market - as an attractive entry point. An extension to the DACH-region is foreseen immediately after the launch in Germany to increase market size.
Team
As a founding team of engineers, designers, and dental surgeons, we see the numbers of dental treatments as a clear sign that current oral hygiene standards are far from optimal. We combine expertise in the field of sensor and actor technologies, product design and medical technology development.We are raising capital!
We are closing our first funding round soon, but we still have some tickets available. If we have sparked your interest and you think it´s time to revolutionize dental industry as we do, please feel free to contact us.
