Dyson Launches New AI Powered Toothbrush with Built-In Camera

Dyson unveils its new AI powered toothbrush, CameraJet, with a built-in camera designed to clean between teeth and target missed gaps.

Dyson has entered a new area of personal care with the launch of its AI powered toothbrush, the Dyson CameraJet. The company unveiled the product in Paris on September 1, introducing a toothbrush that uses a built-in camera and machine learning to identify gaps between teeth while people brush.

The CameraJet is designed to bring brushing, flossing, and rinsing into a single routine. Its 100,000-pixel macro camera captures 28 images every second. Using Dyson's Gap Optical Targeting technology, the device can recognize spaces between teeth and activate a precision mouthrinse jet when it detects a gap.

Dyson says the system can respond within 100 milliseconds. The technology was developed using machine learning trained with 470,000 dental images and is supported by more than 16 million lines of code. The company says development of the product took six years.

A Camera That Guides Cleaning

The Dyson toothbrush works differently from a standard electric toothbrush because it can monitor the areas being cleaned. When the camera identifies a gap, the device directs a conical jet of mouthrinse toward that area.

Dyson says the jet is designed to remove plaque between teeth while being gentler on gums and enamel than needle-style jets commonly used in water flossers.

The CameraJet also features variable sonic oscillation and a dual-bristle brush head. RFID technology recognizes compatible brush heads, while Wi-Fi and Bluetooth allow the device to connect with the MyDyson app.

Through the app, users can access guided cleaning, coverage information and a live view from the toothbrush's camera. Dyson also says camera images are not stored or uploaded to the cloud.

Price and Availability

The CameraJet is priced at $499 and comes in Ceramic Ultra Blue and Ceramic Pink. Dyson is also developing toothpaste and mouthrinse products for the new oral-care system.

With its combination of camera technology, machine learning and targeted rinsing, the AI powered toothbrush reflects Dyson's broader move into technology-driven personal care products.

The launch also gives consumers another option in the growing smart oral-care market, particularly for those looking for technology that can provide more guidance during everyday brushing.
