The quip Ultra Smart Sonic Toothbrush has been awarded the 2025 TIME Best Inventions accolade in the Design category. This recognition emphasizes innovations that are shaping our daily lives. Announced on December 17, 2025, the award highlights the toothbrush’s combination of design, technology, and accessibility.
TIME evaluated over 300 submissions, focusing on factors such as originality, effectiveness, ambition, and overall impact. The quip toothbrush was selected for its modern design, user-friendly technology, and competitive pricing, which collectively aim to elevate everyday oral care.
“Our goal at quip is to make electric toothbrushes an essential part of people’s daily rituals,” stated Meredith Glansberg, CEO of quip. “Although more than 75% of dental professionals recommend using one, only a third of people do. This recognition from TIME affirms our belief that oral care can be both effective and enjoyable — and that we have the opportunity to help close that gap.”
The quip Ultra Smart Sonic Toothbrush offers advanced performance and aesthetics at a price starting at $100. Key features include a sleek design and high-end functionality, which contribute to significant plaque removal compared to traditional manual toothbrushes. The toothbrush boasts a 15 times greater plaque removal between teeth in controlled studies, and users can expect a charge lasting up to 30 days when operated on medium intensity.
For over a decade, quip has aimed to redefine oral care with thoughtfully designed products and a subscription model that simplifies maintenance. The company now provides a comprehensive range of dentist-recommended items, including innovative toothbrushes, award-winning water flossers, and effective whitening strips.
The Ultra Smart Sonic Toothbrush is available for purchase on the quip website and at major retailers worldwide. With over 54 million products sold, quip has established a substantial user base, many of whom subscribe to the service to keep their products fresh and effective.
As the company continues to innovate and expand its product line, it remains committed to making oral health accessible to all. For more information, visit www.getquip.com.
