The brushing timer ensures users brush for the dentist-recommended two minutes, promoting thorough cleaning. It also includes 30-second notifications, prompting users to switch quadrants for even coverage and improved oral hygiene.
A function that briefly pauses or vibrates to indicate when to move to the next quadrant of your mouth. Allows even brushing of the entire mouth by dividing the mouth into four sections and notifying you when to switch sections. Reduces the risk of brushing unevenly.
The quadrant pacing function briefly pauses to indicate when to move to the next quadrant of your mouth. This allows for even brushing of the entire mouth by dividing the mouth into four sections and notifying you when to switch sections, reducing the risk of brushing unevenly.

The inclusion of a travel case enhances the toothbrush's portability and hygiene during travel. It protects the brush head from damage and keeps it clean while on the go, making it a convenient option for maintaining oral hygiene away from home.
