Give us a brief description of yourself (it should include your brief educational or entrepreneurial background and list some of your major achievements).
The Co-Founders of Oral IQ LLC Grace Sun DDS and Hans Kristian Skjorshammer have accumulated between them a combined 5 decades (!) worth of experience in the dental and health/sports sector. They are ready to share their expertise and insights with you by introducing their state-of-the-art PBM light units to the global market.
What inspired you to (start a new business venture) or (to make significant changes in an existing business)?
The experience with LLLT (Low Level Laser Therapy) led to the renewed interest and exploration of PBM (Photobiomodulation) therapy in 2020. Having extensively studied and researched the technology, first-hand knowledge of it eventually became clear that it had significant beneficial treatment results and effects. This led the co-founders (Dr. Sun and Hans Kristian) on the path of exploring the possibilities of developing these safe and affordable LED self-care light units for everyone to use and enjoy from the convenience of the home.
How did the idea for your business come about?
The effects of the global pandemic of 2020 accelerated the need for home-care devices that led to the formation of Oral IQ LLC.
Who has been your greatest inspiration?
The greatest inspirations are Dr. Andrew Mester and Dr. Michael Hamblin, the early pioneer and current expert within Photobiomodulation research who have laid the foundation for the PBM devices that Oral IQ has developed and is continuing to research and develop.
What makes you different from other businesses in your industry?
PBM Light + is the first portable and affordable LED home-care device that comes with 660 nm, 850 nm & 940 nm red & IR wavelengths reaching a wide range of biological structures. The unit is made from the blue, anodized, aluminum casing which makes it super-light and dissipates heat quicker than other LED units on the market. It’s also a lot more affordable than other devices available. The development of these units also incorporates the possibility of creating a brand new niche market for homecare devices in dental care and healthcare that until now hasn’t been extensively explored. This provides the framework for a Win-Win business model that benefits not just the health of the patients but also the financial health of the practice.
To what do you most attribute your success?
Focus, dedication, and a mission to make PBM accessible to everyone, everywhere based on Dr. Sun’s decades worth of knowledge and expertise within Dentistry.

Excluding yours, what company or business do you admire the most?

Who is your target demographic?
Target demographic are people who are searching for non-pharmaceutical pain relief solutions or alternative ways to reduce inflammation, achieve improved recovery from injury or regenerative healing result from chronic ailments, including all dental professionals and dental patients.
