Oral-b Set To Roll-out Bluetooth Enabled Toothbrush

Oral-b Set To Roll-out Bluetooth Enabled Toothbrush
Oral-B has been taking the toothbrush high tech for a while
now. Way back in 2007 we talked about a toothbrush from
Oral-B that had a monitor to help you know when your teeth
were clean.
The company is now set to launch a new toothbrush this
summer that features even more tech crammed inside.
The toothbrush will be sold under the P&G Oral-B brand and
will hit store shelves in June.
The toothbrush will feature Bluetooth 4.0 technology that
allows it to link to an app running on your smartphone. The
app can be programmed with the help of a dentist.
The idea is to allow the dentist to show people locations in the
mouth where they need to spend more time brushing. The app
promises real-time guidance on brushing. Oral-B plans to
unveil the toothbrush at MWC 2014 in Spain next week.
The app running on the smartphone will display brushing
progress in real time and tell the user when to move to a
different part of the mouth. The app will also tell the user if
they are brushing too hard. The Bluetooth equipped
toothbrush will sit at the top of the Oral-B range and is
expected to sell for 219 euros, or about $330.
