UltraBlu™
The patent pending UltraBlu™ is a revolutionary dental care system that not only cleans the teeth but also prevents many forms of gum disease. Among the more destructive bacteria are the so-called "black-pigmented bacteria" (BPB), which have been implicated as pathogens associated with periodontitis. Such bacteria accumulate black pigment consisting mainly of organic compounds called porphyrins. Some porphyrins are photosensitive and when activated by visible light, induce a photodynamic reaction that kills the micro-organism within seconds.
Blue light can be used to selectively suppress certain bacteria commonly associated with destructive gum disease. Some of the key bacterial pathogens associated with periodontitis produce volatile sulfide compounds (VSC) that are responsible for gingivitis and halitosis. These same bacteria are sensitive to light, especially in the blue spectrum. The UltraBlu™ Advanced Blue Light Toothbrush produces a thin slice of blue light in the 450nm wavelength range with an output of 100 milliwatts of constant radiant flux that kills these harmful VSC producing bacteria on contact. The blue light in our brush is safe to use because it does not emit UV light which is below 400nm and is harmful to the eyes and skin. The 450nm blue light induces a photodynamic reaction that kills the micro-organisms on contact. When the proportion of harmful pathogens are reduced, the proportion of helpful bacteria increases, which helps the gums stay healthier. "Technology employing blue light to improve oral ecology could be he most important advance in maintaining periodontal health since the invention of the toothbrush."
Our toothbrush has been field tested with 30 people that had an array of dental problems with better than expected results. One person had deep periodontal pockets and the pocket depths were reduced after using the toothbrush for only three months. Another participate with Gingivitis noticed a big reduction in his inflammation in a few weeks. The innovative manual toothbrush is similar in outward appearance to conventional toothbrushes but that's where the similarity ends. No toothbrush currently on the market can stand up to the superior performance of the UltraBlu™ Advanced Blue Light Toothbrush. Electric toothbrushes can only brush the plaque off the tooth surface and nothing more, while the UltraBlu™ is a totally new dental care system that represents a quantum leap in oral hygiene. Your patients can benefit from using this innovative technology today by brushing with this revolutionary toothbrush and they will thank you for it.

***The NIH study was conducted in accordance with FDA guidelines for ocular safety. Dr. David Sliney, the NIH physicist responsible for ocular safety testing, reported that blue light therapy was well below Governmental threshold levels for ocular safety. Since the risk of ocular damage diminishes exponentially with increasing wavelength (AACGIH, 2001) blue light therapy poses no risk of ocular damage (Ocular damage occurs in the range of 340 - 390 nm, ultraviolet and near ultraviolet light). Also because blue light therapy is very targeted, it produces no UV emissions.***

The objective of this study was to test the effect of visible light irradiation on oral microorganisms. The results show that blue light sources exert a phototoxic effect on P. gingivalis. Testing of the UltraBlu Blue Light Toothbrush showed a 99.39% kill rate (2.2 Log Reduction) with the test organism P. gingivalis.

The innovative toothbrush called, UltraBlu™ is a totally new dental care system that represents a quantum leap in oral hygiene. The blue light destroys bacteria, blitzes plaque, and also has the added benefit of safely whitening teeth. The UltraBlu™ compared to other whitening methods has many advantages, especially since other whitening methods do not kill the bacteria that cause gum disease or destroy plaque. With the UltraBlu™ the use of nasty chemicals are not necessary as with other products. The biggest advantage in using the UltraBlu™ is that the teeth whiten as you brush, thereby eliminating a second step. Even without toothpaste the Company's proprietary royal blue light emitting diode destroys the bacteria that causes halitosis and gum disease.
