THE ORAL CARE SYSTEM
Buy the body once.
One sonic body in coated aluminium. The head replaces, the paste refills, and the body is yours for good.

ENGINEERED
Every part earns its place.
The head
Corn and castor-oil polymer, replaced every three months, posted back in a prepaid envelope and pressed into the Dish.
The paste
1450ppm fluoride in an aluminium tube that refills. The tube is the product; the paste just lives there.
The body
Coated aluminium around a sonic motor. 33,000 vibrations a minute, 40 days to a charge, no reason to ever buy another.

Stated plainly
The last body you buy, they said. Two years in, still true, still sage.
Ellen · MINT One, sage
I post the heads back mostly for the envelope ritual. The dish on my shelf is three of mine.
Theo · Heads, year plan
How often do the heads need replacing?
Every three months, same as any brush. Ours post back in a prepaid envelope instead of going in the bin.
Does the case really charge the brush?
Yes, over USB-C, and it runs a UV-C clean each time it closes. One case, both jobs.
What is the Dish actually made of?
Eighteen returned brush heads, ground, heated and pressed. The speckle is the proof.
Which colour should I get?
Sage, unless it isn't. There are five. They all brush the same.
