Approaching dentistry with an "engineering-first" background leads to two important conclusions:⁣
⁣
#1) End-user requirements and limitations are the most difficult to address (In dentistry, this ranges from broad things such as the "normal" eating pattern of three meals a day to an individual's own ability and compliance with day-to-day oral hygiene).⁣
⁣
#2) The development of technology that reduces the burden of #1 can have profound impacts for the end-user (In dentistry, this manifests as improved oral health outcomes).⁣
⁣
One example of this is the motion sensor, pressure sensor, and bluetooth connectivity of the DiamondClean brush with an iPhone app to give immediate feedback as to where to brush, for how long, and how to adjust brushing techniques to minimize excess force and wasted effort. For some of my patients with the most difficult habits and schedules to work with, this immediate feedback has helped provide the periodontal improvements we're both looking to see.⁣

For National Toothbrush Day (which I only found out was a thing this year, but I'm glad it is!), here's a few fun facts on my favorite oral hygiene product:⁣
⁣
1️⃣ In 2003, the toothbrush was picked as the one invention the American public could not live without. (and I'm in that group - I keep a Sonicare brush at home, at work, and one in my travel bag).⁣
⁣
2️⃣ On average, a person will spend 38.5 days of thier life brushing (so best pick a brush that you'll love).⁣
⁣
3️⃣ In the US, brushing your teeth didn’t wasn't a daily routine until after World War II. During the war, the US Army mandated daily toothbrushing, who kept the habit after the war was over.⁣
⁣
4️⃣ Research from the Academy of General Dentistry shows that most people will only brush for 45-60 seconds on their own (that's why I recommend Sonicare to help ensure my patients brush for the full 2 minute recommendation). ⁣
⁣
5️⃣ The world's most expensive toothbrush is over $4,000 - and it's made of titanium (but good oral health doesn't have to be this pricey).

Fun fact: when I took this photo, I was just having fun in making content for the ‘gram. But the more that I look at it, the more that I realize it’s a perfect representation of where I’m at in life - excited, happy, and proud of what I’ve done, but more importantly, for what I’m doing moving forward. I don’t take breaks easily (and anyone who knows me well knows that), so the pause this summer while all of the legalese of being a dentist processes has allowed me to really reflect on all of this. ⁣⁣

Happy International Day of Yoga (and belated Summer Solstice)! ⁣
⁣
Some welcome the summer equinox with 108 sun salutations - intended to allow you to pause, connect with your self, and reflect. Appropriate this year, with this time being the transition from my last chapter to starting my next - manifesting the next challenge I'm taking on. ⁣

Stay flexible, friends.⁣
