Innovation and Accessibility 

NEW YORK, Dec. 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- quip, the modern oral wellness company on a mission to help people build better oral health habits, is pleased to announce that its Ultra Smart Sonic Toothbrush has won a 2025 TIME Best Inventions Award, recognized in the Design category.

TIME recognized 300 groundbreaking innovations changing our lives. To compile this year's list, TIME solicited nominations from TIME editors and correspondents around the world, and evaluated each contender on a number of key factors, including originality, efficacy, ambition, and impact. The quip Ultra Smart Sonic Toothbrush was selected for its sleek design, intuitive technology, and accessible price point that bring professional-level oral care into people's everyday routines.

"Our goal at quip is to make electric toothbrushes an essential part of people's daily rituals," said 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."
