History of Oral-B

Oral-B, one of the leading brands in oral care, has a rich history dating back to its inception in 1950. The brand was founded by Dr. Robert W. Hutson, a periodontist, and the first Oral-B toothbrush was designed with nylon bristles, a significant innovation at the time as it replaced the less effective animal hair bristles. The brand quickly gained popularity for its superior cleaning abilities and became a staple in households worldwide.

Over the years, Oral-B has continued to innovate and evolve its product line to meet the changing needs and preferences of consumers. In 1981, Oral-B introduced the first electric toothbrush, revolutionizing oral hygiene practices and setting a new standard for at-home dental care. This marked the beginning of Oral-B's dominance in the electric toothbrush market, as the brand consistently introduced new features and technologies to enhance brushing efficiency and effectiveness.

Today, Oral-B offers a wide range of oral care products, including manual and electric toothbrushes, dental floss, mouthwashes, and more. The brand's commitment to innovation, coupled with its emphasis on dental health education, has solidified its position as a trusted leader in the oral care industry. With a legacy of excellence spanning over seven decades, Oral-B continues to empower consumers worldwide to achieve healthier smiles and better oral hygiene habits.
