Dental Salon Japan's Innovative 'Toothbrushing Sheet': A Solution for Oral Care During Disasters

Dental Salon Japan has taken a significant step towards enhancing oral healthcare, especially in disaster situations where water is scarce. With their corporate philosophy of "Creating health from the oral cavity for the people of Japan," the company focuses on importing and selling dental materials and raising awareness about the importance of oral care. Their innovative product, the 'toothbrushing sheet,' is specifically designed for use in such challenging conditions.



The necessity of this product became evident considering the increased risk of pneumonia, particularly among the elderly, in disaster-stricken areas where water access is limited and oral hygiene is neglected. This type of pneumonia, often called aspiration pneumonia, is believed to be caused by inhaling bacteria from the oral cavity along with saliva or food. To address this, Dental Salon Japan created the toothbrushing sheet, a dry sheet that facilitates oral care without the need for water.



This groundbreaking product originated from an existing business relationship with a Chinese company, where Dental Salon Japan discovered the prototype. Unlike the common wet toothbrushing sheets, these dry sheets are easy to store and use in disaster scenarios, providing a much-needed solution for oral healthcare in emergencies. Dental Salon Japan's commitment to this innovative product underscores their dedication to improving life and health through better oral care in Japan​​​​​​.
