Clean Bite, Inc.'s U.S. Patented Clean Bite™I is the world’s most advanced single-use toothbrush.

It looks like a mouthpiece made of a foodstuff that dissolves after utility and is then ingested, enabling it to act as a delivery system for various actives, e.g., vitamins, therapeutics, medications, and encapsulated vaccines (API).

Clean Bite™ addresses domestic oral hygiene while capitalizing on its capability to deliver APIs to meet the needs of populations in the developing world.

Although dental caries is largely preventable domestically, it remains the most common chronic disease of children aged six to 11 years and adolescents ages 12 to 19 years.

Tooth decay is four times more common than asthma among adolescents aged 14 to 17. Under this premise, the largest domestic market is “at-risk children” who receive meals at school.

On April 20, 2021, Food and Nutrition Services (FNS) announced a waiver that provided funding for all students K-12 to receive free meals through the school year 2021 to 2022. This opportunity could have represented the greatest change in advancing oral hygiene for the most vulnerable domestic population by brushing their teeth after eating at school.

Dental carries also affect adults, with nine out of 10 over 20 having some degree of tooth-root decay. Among the at-risk children are those who have transitioned into the populations of the underserved when poor dental health proves to be devastating. Recently recognized oral health is not confined to the mouth but rather is a primary indicator of a person's overall health.

The patented Clean Bite™I is intended to provide oral hygiene unmatched by any single-use toothbrush available anywhere in the world while addressing global health issues in ways never imagined.
