In a world where high-tech gimmicks often overshadow real solutions, quip was founded with a simple yet powerful mission: to prove that good design and better habits have a greater impact on oral health than unnecessary complexity.At quip, we believe that achieving a healthier smile isn’t about the latest flashy toothbrush with Bluetooth or ultrasonic sensors—it’s about fostering consistent, smart habits that actually improve oral hygiene. By combining thoughtful design, accessibility, and expert-backed advice, quip is redefining the future of oral care, making it simpler, smarter, and more effective for everyone.
A Dentist’s Insight: Fixing What Really Matters
The idea for quip was born in a neighborhood dental office in New York, where a simple piece of advice sparked a revolution in oral care: use the cheapest electric toothbrush available to prevent the common problem of brushing too hard.
For years, the oral care industry had focused on gimmicky innovations rather than addressing the real issues that impact dental health, including:
✔ Brushing too hard
✔ Not brushing long enough or twice a day
✔ Skipping flossing and not replacing toothbrushes regularly
✔ Avoiding regular dental checkups
Instead of adding unnecessary tech-driven features, quip set out to solve these overlooked issues with a product that prioritizes effectiveness over excess.
User-Focused Design: Simplicity That Works
As designers, the challenge of rethinking oral care from the ground up was exciting. We weren’t bound by corporate agendas or marketing-driven gimmicks—instead, we used real insights from dentists and users to create a toothbrush that encourages better habits.
We identified three major barriers preventing good oral health:
- Overly complex functionality – Many electric toothbrushes come with confusing settings and unnecessary modes that don’t actually improve brushing habits.
- Bulky, unattractive designs – Most traditional toothbrushes feel clunky and lack portability for modern lifestyles.
- A lack of services to support long-term habits – People often forget to replace their toothbrush heads, floss regularly, or visit the dentist on time.
To solve these challenges, quip was designed to be sleek, simple, and habit-forming. Our toothbrushes focus on the core essentials—gentle sonic vibrations, a built-in two-minute timer, and replaceable brush heads delivered automatically—ensuring users develop and maintain proper brushing habits effortlessly.
The Power of Digital Convenience
At quip, we realized that one of the biggest barriers to proper oral care is inconsistency—whether it’s forgetting to replace a toothbrush or skipping dental checkups. That’s why we built quip as an online-first brand, eliminating the middleman and making oral health products more accessible and affordable.
With our subscription service, users can receive:
✔ Automatic brush head replacements every three months
✔ Refillable floss and fresh toothpaste delivered to their door
✔ Reminders and incentives to schedule regular dental checkups
This streamlined approach makes it easier than ever for people to stay on top of their oral health, without the hassle of remembering when to replace or refill their essentials.
