Zoral was founded by Adèle and Dvir on the premise that everyday oral care tools deserve the same craftsmanship as fine kitchen tools. The brand chose 316L stainless steel (the same alloy used in implantable medical devices) over the cheaper 304 grade most competitors use, designed an ergonomic U-shape that minimizes gag reflex, and ships with an optional ventilated travel case to keep the scraper hygienic between uses.
