About Dr.Bei S7 Sonic Electric Toothbrush
Dr.Bei S7 is a sonic electric toothbrush developed for sensitive gums. The S7 uses a 4D elastic brush head that bends to clean between the teeth while limiting pressure on the gums. The motor allows an adaptive angle change of eight degrees, which softens the effect of firm brushing. A pressure sensor lowers the frequency when the applied force passes a set limit. Stepless power adjustment lets users select a suitable cleaning strength. The simple geometry and the glass panel combine the interactive interface with the body.

Design Details
- Unique Properties
- S7 has pioneered a 4D elastic brush head,which can bend elastically to deeply clean teeth while protecting consumers' sensitive gums.Applying the stepless acceleration principle of racing cars to the electric toothbrush,users can adjust the power of toothbrush steplessly to meet various oral cleaning requirements.The simple and pure geometry matched with the glass panel integrates the interactive interface as one,realizing the perfect unity of function and form.
- Inspiration
- Inspired by octopus's tentacles,the product can be flexibly controlled to penetrate into various tooth corners.The brush head of S7 adopts a similar structural patent,which enables the brush head of the traditional electric toothbrush to reshape freely to adapt to different oral environments. When the continuously variable transmission (CVT) principle of racing cars is applied to the electric toothbrush,the toothbrush can realize various kinds of power cleaning.
- Research
- The market share of electric toothbrushes in China is less than 5%.Many free brands of electric toothbrushes in China imitate Philips,ignoring that the oral conditions of Chinese people are different from those of Europeans. Chinese people's oral cavity is more sensitive,and above 80% of them have developed periodontal diseases,which requires that electric toothbrushes must reduce their stimulation to sensitive gums while pursuing oral cavity cleaning.
- Challenge
- The challenge encountered in the design process lies in how to build an all-round product experience to cater to the sensitive oral cavity of Chinese users.S7 uses 4D elastic brush head and ultra-fine bristles to provide a soft brushing experience. The adjustment of continuously variable transmission poses great challenges to the current control in circuit design.It is necessary to accurately control the electricity to the extent of mA unit,so as to realize stepless power output.
- Realization and Technology
- S7 brush head can realize elastic reshaping,which is the first patented technology in the industry,and it can deeply clean the diastema without damaging gums. The S7 motor can realize an 8-degree adaptive angle change,which has reformed the rigid unchangeable angle characteristic of traditional motor.No matter how hard the user brushes,it will not cause damage to the gums.
- Operation and Interaction
- S7 is mainly designed for the sensitive oral cavity of Chinese people.The brush head can realize elastic reshaping and deeply clean the oral cavity. The product is equipped with pressure sensing,and the user's brushing force exceeds the threshold,it will automatically reduce the frequency. The product provides stepless power adjustment.No matter for users with different oral conditions,or for different oral conditions of the same user,the product can be adjusted for suitable brushing experience.
