3D-Printed Metal Toothbrushes

Zare's Printed Toothbrush Offers an Alternative to Plastic Brushes

— September 27, 2017 — Art & Design
There are plenty of toothbrush designs that have been retooled to offer more stylish and ergonomically friendly designs, but this 3D-printed toothbrush from Zare sets itself apart on both fronts.

The handle of the brush is printed from either stainless steel or titanium and offers a completely different experience than conventional plastic toothbrushes. In fact, the design may be customized in a finish of one's choosing, with matte, polished, galvanized or MioRaw options available. As the brush boasts a form created with 3D printing, it is manufactured in both right- and left-handed versions.

As a metal toothbrush with a removable brush head, the premise is that investing in this oral care tool from Zare will make for a long-lasting purchase. The sleek tube packaging that encases the product is also 3D printed and each individual toothbrush comes with its own serial number.
Trend Themes
1. Customizable 3d-printed Toothbrushes - The ability to customize the finish and design of a metal toothbrush through 3D printing opens up opportunities for personalized oral care products.
2. Sustainable Metal Toothbrushes - The use of stainless steel or titanium in 3D-printed toothbrush handles provides a more durable and eco-friendly alternative to conventional plastic toothbrushes.
3. 3D Printing in Oral Care - The application of 3D printing technology in the production of toothbrushes showcases the potential for innovation and customization in the oral care industry.
Industry Implications
1. Dental Care - The dental care industry can explore the integration of 3D printing to create personalized and sustainable toothbrush solutions.
2. Manufacturing - The manufacturing industry can leverage 3D printing technology to produce customized, high-quality metal toothbrushes efficiently.
3. Sustainable Products - The sustainable products industry can benefit from the development of 3D-printed metal toothbrushes as an eco-friendly alternative to traditional plastic toothbrushes.
