Billionaires Are Reportedly Paying $4,000 For A Titanium Toothbrush
If you've ever dreamt of brushing your teeth with a gold toothbrush, a titanium toothbrush is probably the next-best thing.
Retailing for $US4,200, the Reinast Luxury Toothbrush is the most expensive toothbrush on earth.
And it's not even electric.
So what makes it so special? The company claims that its design, durability, and specially trademarked anti-bacterial coating make it worth the hefty price tag.
This is not the type of toothbrush you would throw away either. Instead, the bristle head detaches from the metal base so you can ditch it and replace it.
The brush comes with a free three-year service plan of new bristle heads every six months (a service that is "naturally at no charge," according to the website ). After that, Forbes reports that the plans get a bit more expensive: $US400 for five years, $US800 for seven years, or $US1,600 for 11 years.
All for a toothbrush.
"The type of client we have in mind and are currently selling to are those with an incredibly high net-worth," Chief Technology Officer Dr. Djorde Djokovic explained to Gizmodo . "It's for people who can spend this amount of money on a product they deem beautiful. And one that doesn't exist on the market elsewhere."
And it turns out, some billionaires are surprisingly willing to shell out $US4,200 on a toothbrush. Djokovic told Gizmodo that at least one Middle Eastern sultan gives them out as gifts. 2 Chains also seemed to like it when he tested the Reinast Luxury Toothbrush for his Expensivest series with GQ .
And for those billionaires who don't prefer the taste of metal in their mouths in the morning, Reinast also offers "bumpers" to cover the brush end of the tool for that familiar plasticky feel -- because you should always have the option of feeling like you're brushing with a $US10 toothbrush with your $US4,200 toothbrush.

lol....I'll take 2!
These obviously will replace the silver spoon, eh?
I thought you were supposed to change your brush once every three months maximum...
sounds like more of a bathroom accessory that you put in your house for fancy home and garden pictures than a useful toothbrush. Dentists probably cringe...
Although if you're that rich, why not yank all the teeth out and replace them with ivory coated platinum implants or something... sheesh
The brush comes with a free three-year service plan of new bristle heads every six months...What a deal!!!
lol..You are supposed to change it every 3 months..or, put it in the dishwasher. (I don't think it would be a good idea to do that with these toothbrushes)...lol
lol..But of course..and the white gloves are mandatory!
They are fools to pay so much-- its probably a lot cheaper on Amazon.com!
lol..."Fools and their money soon shall part" (or something like that)
