People with physical and mental disabilities currently have two options when it comes to brushing their teeth - rely on a family member or a caregiver, or brush on their own and compromise their health with subpar cleaning. Shockingly, studies have shown that a staggering 88% of individuals with disabilities suffer from dental problems, highlighting the urgent need for a tailored solution.

Developed for 8 years by an Israeli startup, Samba utilizes a pioneering combination of low and high frequency oscillations, propelling 12,900 soft bristles along the teeth with a dynamic brushing motion that helps remove plaque and debris more thoroughly from the teeth and gums. This technology eliminates the need for manual hand movements, granting individuals a newfound level of independence in their oral care routine.
