Dyson Unveils CameraJet Toothbrush with Built-In Camera and Water Flosser

Dyson founder Sir James Dyson has unveiled his first toothbrush, the CameraJet, at an event in Paris. The device combines an electric toothbrush with a water flosser and uses a built-in camera to target gaps between teeth with a precision jet of mouthwash. Priced at $799 (or £419.99 in the UK), it is the result of six years of research and development by Dyson engineers.

A Toothbrush That Can See and Floss

Sir James Dyson has unveiled his first toothbrush at an event in Paris, a device named the Dyson CameraJet that combines an electric toothbrush with a water flosser. As you brush, a built-in camera lens sits alongside the brush head, and a jet nozzle between them fires a precision burst of mouthwash into the gaps between your teeth when the system's “Gap Optical Targeting” technology determines it is in line.

Reports describe the camera as capturing 28 images every second to identify, track, and predict gaps between teeth, firing a conical-shaped spray to sweep away plaque. Another account describes a 100,000-pixel camera lens and a jet that delivers a precision burst of mouthwash into the gap to floss.

Research and Development

The CameraJet is the result of six years of design and development, with reports citing research and prototypes from 661 Dyson engineers. Engineers worked with researchers at the National University of Singapore to develop an artificial plaque to test the bristles on the custom-designed brush head and the conical jet of mouthwash. EFTM also reports that Dyson developed its own proxy plaque to allow engineers to iterate quickly when testing to optimise the brush and jet for plaque removal.

According to Dyson founder James Dyson, “Flossing is an awkward and time-consuming chore. Few of us do it even though we know we should. Dyson engineers and scientists have spent well over a decade understanding oral care regimes and how nasties build up in the mouth. Our research has shown that people consistently miss the areas where plaque forms: the gaps between teeth. We wanted to solve three fundamental problems: how to see those gaps, how to remove plaque, and how to improve cleaning performance while brushing. By combining a camera, machine learning, precision fluid dynamics, advanced brushing technologies, connectivity and WiFi, Dyson CameraJet™ introduces an entirely new way to keep your mouth healthy.”

The device also aims to address poor brushing habits. Reports note that nine out of ten people do not floss their teeth as regularly as they should, and the average time people spend brushing their teeth is 45 seconds, well below the two minutes recommended.

Design and Features

The CameraJet uses a diaphragm pump and pressure chamber to deliver a controlled, uninterrupted jet in any orientation. Dyson’s Anti-Gravity Tank eliminates air pockets and prevents the device from firing blanks, which is especially important when cleaning the back of the teeth, where the device is often horizontal.

The charging stand contains the mouthwash, and when you finish your clean and place the Dyson CameraJet down to charge, it also refills a small tank on the device. The device is WiFi connected to a smartphone app, allowing users to see while they clean. No images are stored or recorded on the device or in the cloud.

The Dyson CameraJet is priced at $799 in the US and £419.99 in the UK, according to the respective reports.

Facts Included:

Nine out of ten people do not floss their teeth as regularly as they should, and the average time we spend brushing our teeth is 45 seconds – well below the two minutes recommended.
The Dyson CameraJet is a toothbrush designed to solve those problems and more.
A 100,000-pixel camera lens sits alongside the brush head and in between them is a jet nozzle which, when the “Gap Optical Targeting” system determines it is in line, will fire a precision burst of mouthwash into the gap to floss.
Dyson founder James Dyson says flossing is an awkward and time-consuming chore.
Dyson engineers and scientists spent well over a decade understanding oral care regimes and how nasties build up in the mouth.
Dyson even developed their own proxy plaque to allow engineers to iterate quickly when testing to optimise the brush and jet for plaque removal.
The charging stand contains the mouthwash, and when you finish your clean and place the Dyson CameraJet down to charge, it also refills a small tank on the device.
Dyson engineers designed an anti-gravity tank with an inflatable bag inside to ensure there’s never an air gap, feeding mouthwash at any angle and at any stage of the clean.
The Dyson CameraJet is also WiFi connected to your smartphone app, so you can see while you clean.
No images are stored or recorded on the device or in the cloud.
The Dyson CameraJet costs $799.
This is six years of design and development in the making.

What was claimed, and who backed it

AI-extracted; can misattribute a claim — see Methodology.

Each row is one claim, attributed to the outlet whose wording states it most clearly. Confidence rates how directly the source text states the claim — explicit and unhedged rates high; hedged, pieced-together, or internally inconsistent statements rate lower. It does not measure whether the claim is true. Status is Contested when two claims on this page negate each other; otherwise it counts the distinct outlets we found asserting that specific claim — so a single-source claim can still show high confidence, and a multi-source claim can show medium. Every one of those outlets is named beside the status, so you can check the count against the list. For claims extracted before we began storing that list, the row says so: it names the outlet the claim is quoted from and states that we have not recorded which outlets backed it. Outlets wrote at different times, so a figure that evolves — a casualty count, for example — can legitimately differ between rows; check the "as of" time next to each claim's source.
