Founder & CEO

"I was an Invisalign patient, and cleaning my retainers properly was almost impossible. All that existed was a toothbrush, designed for teeth, not the tight grooves and hard to reach corners where the gunk actually builds up. So I designed my own. It became the first retainer brush in the world.

That was only the beginning. Cleaning with tablets every single day felt tedious, and honestly, a little daunting. I hated that most were mass produced overseas and packed with persulfates, and I hated the waste, the packaging, the water it took just to rinse them away. I wanted something reusable instead. So I built a full retainer care kit around a liquid cleaner that didn't need any of it."
