G.U.M (Gentle Uman Mouth) is a prominent oral hygiene brand known for its specialized dental care products. The brand was originally established in the United States by Dr. John O. Butler, a dentist who sought to improve clinical oral hygiene through better-designed toothbrushes and tools.

Today, the brand is owned by Sunstar, a Japanese multinational corporation that acquired the John O. Butler Company in 1988. Sunstar has expanded the GUM product line globally, manufacturing products such as flossers, interdental brushes, and toothbrushes in various facilities located in the United States, Japan, and other regions to serve international markets. The ultimate ownership remains with Sunstar Group, headquartered in Switzerland for its global operations, while its corporate roots remain in Japan.
