Dyson CameraJet Toothbrush Sprays Mouthwash with AI Precision
Dyson is bringing its engineering-heavy development process, six years and 16 million lines of code, to oral care with a toothbrush that targets plaque with AI-guided precision.

Dyson announced the CameraJet electric toothbrush on September 1, priced at 79,800 yen. The brush uses a built-in camera with an AI algorithm called Gap Optical Targeting that analyzes 28 live images per second to find gaps between teeth, then sprays a cone-shaped mouthwash jet within 100 milliseconds. The product took six years to develop and is on sale now on the official website.
The embedded code runs 16 million lines, and the machine learning was trained on 470,000 dental images. The camera feeds 28 live images per second into the Gap Optical Targeting algorithm, which finds the spaces between teeth and fires a cone-shaped mouthwash jet within 100 milliseconds of recognition.
The spray uses a Conical Jet rather than the needle-shaped jet of traditional water flossers. Dyson says the low-pressure cone sweeps plaque off a wide area at once and is gentle on gums and enamel. The 12.5ml Anti-Gravity Tank uses a diaphragm pump and pressure chamber so it sprays evenly no matter how the brush is held.
The camera doubles as an endoscope, and owners can watch the feed live through the MyDyson app. The brush connects over 2.4GHz Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. Dyson plans a low-foam toothpaste so the camera can see clearly during use.
