Would You Brush Your Teeth with a sprig? [Art]

Leen Sadder, a design student, had to redesign first thing she threw away after class. She ended up throwing away a toothbrush. She redesigned, hell, re-imagined the toothbrush as a spray. Apparently, it works well.

There’s actually people inside the Middle East, Pakistan and India who use a Miswak twig to comb their teeth. They bite off the end to show softer bristles on the inside (corresponding to a toothbrush). Her toothbrush, called THIS, cribs off that idea and creates solutions that better fit the yank market. As an example, rather than being forced to bite off the head, Sadder created a cigar cutter-like cap to do the dirty work. Plus, it’s totally natural and biodegradable.

I’m sure somebody would use these twigs to comb their teeth in preference to toothbrushes. [ Behance via Core 77 ]
