The press release includes an image of a person brushing and looking at an image of their teeth on a phone. If you are actively brushing with toothpaste, the quality of the image will likely be as good as an unprepped colonoscopy.
It’s unlikely to yield any actionable information, other than scratching the pimple-popping gross-up itch.
On second thought, I am now half-expecting a home colonics device from Dyson. Easy setup… just lay down on your side in your bathtub.
> This includes a proprietary non-foaming toothpaste, formulated without SLS (a common foaming agent)
to help keep foam out of the way so the camera can see clearly and support Gap Optical Targeting™,
alongside a low-foaming mouthrinse formulated for use with the precision jet
Toothbrushes are a crappy device. I’ve seen some stuff lately that’s like a whole mouth brush, like a mouth guard. With a small pipe to the mouth guard feeding water, you can pretty much car wash your mouth every morning in 60 seconds. Sloshing water around in your mouth often creates way more pressure allowing water to go through the gaps in your teeth (cleaning them). But the waterpik sellers will convince you that isn’t true.
That’s the problem with highly skillful people that follow tradition. I’m sure the engineers are brilliant behind this (camera toothbrush designers), but they are still following tradition of this old idea.
Anyways. Sometimes you have to trust that you are well beyond tradition and are free to redefine all rules. Be fearless.
Whole mouth brush was a gimmick for almost two decades if not more, maybe these days its more adequate but I can only imagine what it could do to gums. Doctors can’t wait..
Sometimes I’ll add mouthwash or hydrogen-peroxide to the tank, it works well.
Usually I start with a quick rinse, then a brush with the flosser on, then a finishing brush with the flosser off.
I see this and am unsure if it’s over-engineering a less effective solution.
It’s neat, but I can’t say it excites me; am curious to see reviews and comparisons. The form factor does seem a bit odd though, visually it’s mediocre imo.
You're most likely using it in the same room where you poop, probably storing it next to a basin where you wash your dirty hands, and putting it in one of the dirtiest places in/on your body daily. It gets soaking wet hopefully twice daily.
The only dyson products I've used that didn't suck were their vacuums. (To be clear, their vacuums are shit and do not suck as well as even a cheap shark.)
I don’t even see how you can share direct to TikTok with this? Or have they got their own social network for toothbrushing? Can I use this to talk with someone using the Dyson ActiveDouche?

That is a phrase I didn't have on my HN bingo card for the day.

- Ball Animal 3 Extra

These are real product names that they were happy to ship. I like that they ship these absurd sounding names.

0. tongue scraper 1. brush with normal toothpaste 2 min 2. floss 3. mouthwash 4. rinse 5. brush with a dry toothpaste that you don't rinse
I started to treat it like an important health step, less a chore. Like exercise or cooking healthy food instead of buying shit takeout.
tools like this almost need the same level of sanitization you would see at the dentist.
other than that, I am very interested
I hate to break it to you, but it will get dirty.
Yikes...
Also it didn't push Brexit for years then piss of to Singapore.

Idk that is kind of trippy to see your own teeth in real time as you brush them
