Dyson has introduced a new gadget called CameraJet—an electric toothbrush equipped with a miniature camera. This camera scans the space between teeth during brushing and uses directed streams of mouthwash to clean hard-to-reach areas.
The manufacturer claims that the device is designed to address one of the most frequently ignored parts of daily oral hygiene—the spaces between teeth, where plaque can accumulate.
The toothbrush uses a macro camera with a resolution of 100,000 pixels and machine learning to detect and track gaps in real time. Upon detecting such an area, the system can activate a small burst of mouthwash directed precisely at that spot.
According to Dyson's statements, the camera captures 28 images per second and can react within 100 milliseconds. Developing this system required the use of over 470,000 dental images and 16 million lines of code.
The launch of CameraJet is scheduled for this month in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Saudi Arabia. Sales will begin in Dyson Demo Stores and select retailers, with the price in the UAE set at 1949 dirhams.
The package includes the CameraJet toothbrush itself, a charging station, a travel case, toothpaste, and mouthwash. The device will be available in two colors: Ceramic Ultra Blue and Ceramic Pink.
CameraJet combines several stages of oral care into one device. In addition to regular brushing, it can perform precise flossing, spray mouthwash, and guide the user in correct brushing technique.
The conical jet is designed to cover a larger area compared to the narrow jets typically used in water flossers. Dyson notes that the wider sprayer allows plaque removal at lower pressure, making the process gentler on gums and enamel.
The device is also equipped with a 12.5 ml mouthwash reservoir, which ensures controlled bursts without overfilling the mouth. An anti-gravity system guarantees continuous delivery even when the brush is tilted or held horizontally.
The brush head itself features two types of bristles: stiffer inner bristles are designed to remove surface stains, while softer outer bristles are for the gum area.
The built-in camera also functions as a live viewer through the MyDyson app, effectively turning the toothbrush into a miniature dental camera. Users can see what the camera is capturing during brushing, access brushing guides, coverage maps, and personalized feedback. The company emphasizes that images are not recorded or stored on the device or in the cloud.
CameraJet also utilizes variable sonic oscillation, which, according to Dyson, helps maintain bristle movement instead of them stopping against the teeth. According to the company, creating this system took six years of development involving 661 Dyson engineers and 30 dentists.
