Dyson’s First Smart Toothbrush Uses AI to Target Gaps Between Teeth

Dyson is entering oral care with the CameraJet, a $499 smart toothbrush that combines brushing with a built-in camera and targeted liquid jet. The device launches Tuesday and uses artificial intelligence to detect spaces between teeth before automatically directing mouthrinse into those areas.

The CameraJet centers on a 100,000-pixel macro camera that analyzes up to 28 images each second. Dyson says the system can recognize a gap and activate the liquid jet within 100 milliseconds, aiming to reach areas that are harder to clean with brushing alone.

Rather than using the narrow stream common to many water flossers, Dyson designed the CameraJet around a conical jet. The company says that shape helps distribute liquid across more of the tooth surface while allowing the system to operate at lower pressure. The device includes a 12.5-milliliter mouthrinse reservoir. An accompanying dock can refill the tank in about three seconds, according to Dyson.

Users can also pair the CameraJet with the MyDyson app. The app supports live camera viewing, brushing guidance, coverage maps and feedback on cleaning technique. Dyson says the camera only processes images on the device and that those images are not stored or shared. The company also says the camera is active only during live viewing or when the automatic jet function is being used.

The CameraJet uses a brush head with different bristle types for separate cleaning tasks. Firmer inner bristles are intended to address surface stains, while softer outer bristles are designed for cleaning around the gumline.

Dyson says laboratory testing showed the CameraJet removed nearly 70% more plaque from difficult-to-reach areas than premium electric toothbrushes under certain conditions. The company carried out the tests using proxy plaque developed through research with the National University of Singapore.

Dyson is also developing low-foaming mouthrinse and SLS-free toothpaste intended for use with the device.

The CameraJet extends Dyson’s consumer hardware lineup beyond categories such as vacuum cleaners and hair-care products. It is available through Dyson’s website and Dyson Demo Stores.
