Revolutionary New Toothbrush Hits U.S. Market: Ionic ProClean Uses Science to Reduce Plaque and Gingivitis

Brush smarter, not harder… PLEASANTVILLE, N.Y.--(Business Wire)-- Global Ionics LLC today announced the official launch of its breakthrough product: the Ionic ProClean toothbrush (www.ionicproclean.com). The Ionic ProClean uses long-established ionic technology that has been proven to remove more plaque with less effort. It is being introduced to market at a fraction of the price of comparable toothbrushes, making it an ideal product for recession-minded consumers who want a fresh-from-the-dentist feeling of clean. In nature, opposites attract. This explains why plaque can be so difficult to remove from your teeth. Plaque has a positive (+) charge; tooth enamel has a negative (-) charge. The Ionic ProClean uses proven ionic technology to temporarily change tooth enamel to a positive (+) charge. This allows the natural science of polarity to loosen the bond of plaque so you can gently sweep it away. After rinsing the toothbrush under running water, the user simply touches a small silver strip on the handle and brushes normally with the toothpaste of his or her choice. By touching the silver strip, your body`s natural energy completes the circuit. A red light on the handle shines brightly to confirm that the energy circuit is complete and the ionic action is working to remove plaque. Ken Davidov, founder of Global Ionics, explains, "Studies have shown that ionic technology reduces plaque and gingivitis. While this technology has been used in Asia and Europe for years, this is the first ionic toothbrush designed for the North American and worldwide market that neatly encases all the elements into one hermetically sealed brush, made from soft materials. It looks and feels like an ordinary toothbrush and doesn`t require unsightly charging equipment on the bathroom counter. Its function is absolutely silent - and it costs less than $10." Davidov also recognizes the Ionic ProClean`s business potential. "The U.S. toothbrush market is estimated at $1.3 billion in annual sales. Furthermore, toothbrush household penetration is close to 100% and is expected to remain recession proof. Given these difficult economic times, when people are losing dental insurance and visits to the dentist`s office are rationed, improved at-home care is critically important. The Ionic ProClean has the potential to change the oral care industry and add value in a flat to down category." The Ionic ProClean is currently available online at www.ionicproclean.com for $8.95 plus shipping and handling. Orders of two or more brushes come with a free travel kit. Dental professionals recommend replacing your toothbrush every three months.
