Dyson's CameraJet Turns Brushing Into a Camera-Driven Water Flossing System

Dyson unveiled the CameraJet, a toothbrush that also acts as a water flosser with a built-in camera. Its Gap Optical Targeting system analyzes 28 images per second to spray water only at gumline gaps, with a live video feed streamed privately to a smartphone app; the feed stays on the device, demos used fake teeth, and while the device promises precision and portability, it comes with a premium price and on-device privacy claims.

Dyson's CameraJet: The $499 Toothbrush That Films Inside Your Mouth

A Cut beauty editor tests Dyson's $499 CameraJet toothbrush, which blends brushing with a built-in camera and targeted mouthwash jets that floss as you clean. She previewed it in Paris, reporting the brushing feels strong and dentist-like, and while she hasn’t yet used the filming feature, the device promises live-mouth visibility and potential cavity checks, all in a premium, camera-equipped package.

Dyson’s $500 AI Toothbrush Debuts With Real-Time Camera and Mouthwash Jet

Dyson unveiled the CameraJet, a $500 toothbrush equipped with a 100,000‑pixel in‑mouth camera, AI gap-detection, and a real-time MyDyson app. It analyzes up to 28 images per second to locate gaps and fires a conical jet of mouthwash at them within 100 microseconds, aiming to reduce plaque while being gentler on gums. The brush includes WiFi/Bluetooth, an anti-gravity tank for brushing in any orientation, a refill dock, and ships Sept. 8 (pre-orders started in Paris) in Ceramic Ultra Blue or Ceramic Pink, with two brush heads, a charger, and a two-year warranty. Dyson also teased forthcoming non-foaming toothpaste and low-foaming mouthwash to pair with the system; it’s positioned as a high-tech, premium take on oral care rather than a floss replacement.

Dyson's £420 smart toothbrush streams live mouth footage and AI-guided cleaning

Dyson has unveiled a £420 smart toothbrush with a high-resolution endoscope camera that streams live inside-your-mouth footage to the MyDyson app, uses machine learning to detect gaps between teeth, and deploys mouthwash jets to target plaque, claiming up to 72% more plaque removal than leading rivals; the system includes a non-foaming toothpaste and mouth rinse and aims to position itself as a complete dental tech solution, though dental experts warn that a proper brushing routine remains essential.

Dyson unveils CameraJet: the toothbrush that flosses with a built-in camera

Dyson debuts its first dental product, the CameraJet electric toothbrush, which uses a camera to identify gaps between teeth and spray mouthwash to floss as you brush, combining brushing, flossing and rinsing in one device; the system relies on an AI-powered algorithm trained on dental images and includes a dedicated toothpaste and mouthwash.

Dyson’s CameraJet AI Toothbrush Guides Water Flossing

Dyson debuts the CameraJet, a $499 smart toothbrush that also acts as a water flosser, using an AI camera to analyze 28 live images per second and trigger targeted water jets for hard-to-reach areas; it streams a live feed to a Dyson app while brushing, with Dyson saying no images are stored and privacy is maintained — the device is pitched as a way to encourage flossing rather than replace traditional flossing, and preorder is now open.

Graphene Toothbrush Mystery Solved: How Graphene Oxide Kills Bacteria Without Harming Humans

Scientists reveal that graphene oxide in graphene toothbrushes targets a bacterial membrane molecule called POPG, explaining how these brushes kill bacteria while largely sparing human cells. Increasing oxygen-containing groups on graphene oxide enhances binding and antibacterial effect (around 96–99% growth suppression), while removing oxygen or adding nitrogen weakens it, highlighting surface chemistry over sheet size. Microscopy shows membrane damage and cell rupture; the approach also suppresses drug-resistant strains and aided faster wound healing in animal models, with potential uses in medical textiles and protective fabrics. Safety data come from cell and animal studies, but human trials and design optimization remain needed. More than 10 million graphene toothbrushes have already been sold, underscoring the push toward evidence-based antibacterial products.

Autobrush recalls Sonic Pro Kids toothbrush packaging over coin-battery ingestion risk

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission recalls about 48,000 Autobrush Sonic Pro Kids toothbrush delivery boxes after finding a lithium coin-cell battery in the box that children can access, violating Reese’s Law and the mandatory standard for button/coin batteries and lacking required warnings. Boxes were sold online from 2023–2025 for about $85–$90. Recall date: April 23, 2026. Consumers should stop using the boxes, contact Autobrush for a $5 store-credit refund, mark the box with “Recalled” and send a photo of the marked box to [email protected], then dispose of the box. No incidents have been reported. Importer: Lander Enterprises LLC (Autobrush), manufactured in China.

Are Your Dental Tools Sprouting Microplastics?

Researchers say dental products like nylon toothbrush bristles, plastic floss, and even packaging can shed microplastics, potentially affecting oral microbes, causing inflammation, or damaging DNA, but it’s unclear how much ends up in the body or if it causes health problems. Brushing and flossing remain essential, and there’s no proven nonplastic alternative yet. To limit exposure, brush and floss gently with soft bristles, replace your toothbrush every 3–4 months, keep products away from heat and sun, and spit out toothpaste instead of rinsing, though the overall risk is still uncertain.

Toothbrushing 2–3 Times a Day Could Lower Dementia Risk

A science conference linked good dental hygiene to a reduced risk of more than 50 conditions, including dementia, urging people to brush two to three times daily (with a pre-bedtime brush) and to consider electric brushes; researchers warn UK oral health is lagging and bacteria from gums may affect the brain and other organs.

Toilet Plumes Meet Your Toothbrush: What Actually Reduces Microbes

Flushing toilets creates toilet plumes that spread aerosols in the bathroom, and toothbrushes can collect these droplets and harbor biofilms. Studies show common brushes in communal bathrooms carry fecal bacteria, though oral microbes from the user can outcompete some contaminants; closing the lid doesn’t fully prevent spread and covers can trap moisture, promoting other pathogens. The recommended defenses are chemical disinfection or soaking, regular toothbrush replacement, and keeping brushes far from the toilet (ideally in a drying cabinet). Upgrading to vacuum toilets would help, but for now the goal is reducing cross-contamination rather than achieving sterility.
