Business model

Direct-to-consumer sales of oral-care hardware and consumables, with a subscription option for recurring refill and replacement deliveries. The company promotes building an electric toothbrush subscription for a 15% saving and offers free shipping on a customer's first subscription order, alongside bundle discounts of up to $25.

Revenue comes from one-time and subscription purchases of toothbrushes, brush heads, toothpaste, floss, whitening strips and flossers, with recurring refill subscriptions and multi-product bundles used to raise order value and repeat purchase.

The company states it is the dentist-recommended electric toothbrush for more than 12 million people and displays 9,119 customer reviews on its storefront.

Latest developments

Recent additions to the line include the Rev smart oscillating toothbrush with a companion oscillating brush head refill, and a new refillable woven string floss in mint and watermelon, together with a reformulated Daily Strengthening Anticavity Toothpaste.
