The Twooth Timer Company, Inc.

The Twooth Timer Company was incorporated in February 1999. The company’s first product, Twooth® Timer, began as an idea in August 1998 during a routine dental checkup. After being told by the dentist that her children needed to brush their teeth for two minutes (instead of ten seconds!), company Founder and President, Antoinette de Janasz, designed the Twooth® Timer.

Antoinette set out to have the timer manufactured and began marketing it to the dental profession. In the fall of 1999 the Twooth® Timer won a Parents’ Choice Award and the company shipped its first orders.

In 2000 the company expanded its sights to the retail and promotional markets. Winning a Dr. Toy Award and a growing public awareness of dental health helped boost sales and bring in revenue needed to begin developing new products to further promote good oral hygiene.

With the introduction of their ‘spokestooth’, Twoothy T™, the company began focusing on promoting dental health and how it is integral to general health. Twoothy T™ will help children to remember to “brush for two minutes & floss twice a day!” while making it fun!

In June 2002 the Twooth® Pocket Pal was introduced and won a Dr. Toy Award at the same time! The Twooth® Pocket Pal is a 13” tall plush of Twoothy T™. The vest pocket is designed to hold a child’s lost tooth so that the Tooth Fairy can find it easily.

Twooth® Time is a fun and educational kit Antoinette designed to help parents and their children work together to achieve good oral health by learning proper brushing & flossing techniques. Included in the Twooth® Time kit is a Twooth® Timer, a Ready-Set-Brush!™ booklet, and a free toothbrush!

Ready-Set-Brush!™ Brushin’, Flossin’ Fun Book was written by Antoinette as an illustrated instructional guide for families on oral hygiene. Twoothy T™ demonstrates how to properly brush and floss teeth and included are oral hygiene tips for different ages, tips on preventing tooth decay, fun dental facts and a section of dental-related games & puzzles! The last page is a detachable Ready-Set-Brush!™ calendar to help keep track of brushing & flossing and make it a lifelong habit. Free copies of the Ready-Set-Brush!™ Calendar are available to download off our website.

Twoothy T™ Temporary Tattoos are a fun way to help kids remember to “brush for two minutes & floss twice a day!” and make a great reward when they have completed their Ready-Set-Brush!™ calendar. Free downloads of Color Twoothy T™ and How to Brush & Floss are available on our website and we encourage teachers and dentists to distribute them to their students/patients.
