Oral-B Professional Gum Intensive Care toothpaste

Oral-B is a globally recognized brand in the dental hygiene sector, originally founded in the United States by Dr. Robert W. Hutson in 1950. The brand became famous for inventing the nylon-bristled toothbrush and has since grown to lead the market in both manual and electric oral care products.

While the brand originated in California, it was acquired by the Gillette Company in 1984, which in turn was acquired by the consumer goods giant Procter & Gamble (P&G) in 2005. Today, Oral-B is a core brand under P&G's healthcare division. Manufacturing for the European market, particularly for specialized formulas like the 'Professional' line shown, frequently takes place in Germany (specifically in Marktheidenfeld and Gross-Gerau), though P&G operates a global supply chain with facilities in multiple countries.
