14 DAY TRIAL // The latest household product created with a 3D printer is a toothbrush shaped after your teeth. The Blizzident brush should help clean your teeth in a record time of six seconds.
According to Quartz, the product is created via a mix of 3D scanning and 3D printing. It is custom made to fit the customer's teeth after a trip to the dentist.
The client gets an impression of their teeth which is converted into a digital output at a dental lab.
Creators tell ABC News that they have not intended to reduce brushing time, but that is how long it takes for teeth to be cleaned using this method.
“The intent was to create a tool that simply cleans perfectly everywhere. [] The six-second brushing time was just a side effect of the invention, but that was not even intended,” describes Chris Martin, a spokesman for Blizzident.
