Dentist-Designed Oral Care for your Little Ones

Little Brushies electric toothbrush for babies and children founders dentists

Meet Our Founder Dentists

Dr Annie Smith and Dr Mary Baptista were raising their own children when they encountered personal experience with teething struggles and toddler brushing. "When our little ones started teething, they were mesmerised by our electric toothbrushes, but they were far too powerful for their tiny gums". With no safe and thoughtfully designed options out there, Brushi Bear™ was born.

As dentists, we are frequently asked "how do I get my baby/toddler to let me brush their teeth". The innovative design features of our brush, appeal to and engage children helping parents to overcome brushing challenges and cultivate a love for healthy oral habits from the very start.

Brushi Bear™ isn't just a toothbrush, it's a purposefully designed tool that helps establish healthy habits during the precious 0-3 year developmental window. We're establishing a new standard of care, giving every child the same attention we want for our own families.

The Little Brushies Mission

As both clinicians and mothers, Dr. Annie and Dr. Mary saw a critical gap: oral care products for young children weren’t designed with developmental science in mind. This insight drove them to create Little Brushies and the patent-pending Brushi Bear™ toothbrush, with a mission to shift early childhood dentistry from reactive intervention to proactive prevention. Through Little Brushies, Dr. Annie and Dr. Mary translate decades of clinical knowledge into accessible tools that empower families to give tiny mouths the optimal start.
