Key Trends in the South Korea Electric Toothbrush Market
An electric toothbrush is a toothbrush that cleans teeth by rapidly and automatically moving the bristles back and forth or in a clockwise or counterclockwise motion. The typical power source for a contemporary electric toothbrush is a rechargeable battery that is charged by inductive charging while the brush is put in the charging base in between applications.
The Flexing Trend and Surge of Smart Electric Brushes are Augmenting the Electric Toothbrush Market of South Korea
The smart electric toothbrushes have built-in AI and sensing technology that may offer individualised oral health care based on each user's brushing behaviour. These intelligent toothbrushes assist in adjusting a person's natural tendency to clean their teeth vigorously to the proper level of intensity. These brushes may deliver real-time instructions on how long to brush various sections of the teeth and can identify which teeth received inadequate care.
Furthermore, with the "Flex" consumption tendency, Korea's MZ generation, millennials, and generation Z are impacting the luxury market. The MZ generation values self-care highly and are willing to spend money on high-end versions of common items like toothpaste and toothbrushes.
