Super interesting concept! How often are you meant to perform the test? $119 seems a lot to pay, but i guess if you're only doing it once a year/every couple years, maybe it's not so bad. In general, i love bringing healthcare and data to the home, so this looks really cool! Congrats on the launch!

@britt_joiner Great question and thanks for your support! We offer subscriptions where you can get a kit sent every 6 or 3 months. It really depends on your use case - some of our members haven't seen a dentist for a long time and just want a snapshot of their oral health. Others are focused on monitoring and continually managing their oral health in the wake of more chronic conditions (halitosis, oral thrush, etc). The oral microbiome is dynamic so there will be shifts over time. Generally, we recommend testing every 6 months :)

👋 Hi Product Hunters and Builders! I am Danny, co-founder and CEO of Bristle. We’re making oral health more effective and accessible through the oral microbiome. 🦷 Dental care feels like pulling teeth Our oral health is a black box. Some of us suffer from cavities all the time while others have chronic bad breath, and nothing ever seems to work. You *might* go to a dentist every 6 months (40% of US adults don’t, by the way) for an X-ray or observational screening, but those only detect the symptoms of existing disease. By then, you may need an expensive and invasive procedure like a cavity filling or root canal. Oral diseases are the most prevalent conditions on the planet and linked to chronic conditions like diabetes, heart disease, and mental illness. The standard of care revolves around reactively treating disease instead of proactively managing health. 🦠 Bristle analyzes your oral microbiome to help you monitor & improve your oral health from home Oral health is rooted in the oral microbiome - the bacteria, fungi and viruses that live inside of our mouths. Some of these microbes are good and help prevent disease while others are harmful and lead to conditions like bad breath, tooth decay and gum inflammation. We analyze your oral microbiome to provide direct insights into your oral health. Each oral microbiome is unique and your oral care should be, too. We tailor recommendations based on your oral microbiome to take the guesswork out of oral health. Our database is first-of-its-kind developed through our partnership with the University of the Pacific Dental School. 👅 The Bristle experience Send a saliva sample to our lab. You’ll get your oral health report including all of the microbes we identified and their association to different conditions. We’ll also match you to diet, hygiene and product recommendations based on your results. These can range from specific ingredients like nano-hydroxyapatite, to hygiene changes like brushing frequency or to dietary additions like nitrate. You can review your results with an oral health expert via 1:1 coaching to get even more personalized. 🚗 What’s next Our mouth is the gateway to our body and the mirror of our health. We're constantly uncovering new insights around oral and overall health while improving the recommendations we provide to improve. Your results evolve with us! ✨ Exclusive for Product Hunt To celebrate our launch, we created a PH community code PRODUCTHUNT for 15% off your first test. 😄 Let us know what you think We’ll be hanging out in the comments section! We're always excited to get feedback & love answering questions :)

Congratulations on the launch! There's nothing worse than a long and expensive feedback loop, especially when it comes to health so thanks for developing such an insightful product. Can't wait to try it.

@oscar_wehbe Thanks Oscar! I completely agree. A major reason we started Bristle was to solve my own problem with oral disease. I tried everything but never had a way to see what was actually working, so we created one! Can't wait to get your thoughts on it :)

This is awesome! As someone who gets cavities a lot, this could be beneficial to me. I also studied molecular genetics and microbiology way back when, and we learned a lot about how oral health can impact overall health. This is very cool.

@isabelstewart Thanks so much, Isabel! I also got cavities a lot, which was a huge reason we started Bristle! We all come from a genomics background, so it made sense to leverage the technology to better understand what's actually driving oral conditions. Would love any feedback you have on it :)

Bristle did a great job pointing me to tailored dental hygiene needs and products that would meet them. It's been so easy to use and so helpful!
