The project focuses on the development of an innovative nanofiber sponge for comprehensive oral hygiene. It addresses the shortcomings of conventional toothbrushes, which are less effective in hard-to-reach areas and can cause gum irritation. At the same time, it responds to the need for sustainability—the sponge is fully biodegradable and offers an alternative to plastic toothbrushes, thereby contributing to waste reduction and environmental protection.
