| Quick Answer The Dyson toothbrush, called the CameraJet, is Dyson’s first dental product. It uses a tiny built-in camera and artificial intelligence to spot gaps between your teeth, then fires a precise jet of water or mouthrinse into those gaps as you brush — combining brushing, flossing and rinsing in one device. It costs $499, launched on 1 September 2026, and connects to the MyDyson app for live feedback on your brushing. |
Dyson has been reinventing vacuums, fans and hairdryers for decades, making them feel less like house appliances and more like beloved gadgets. Now the company has turned its attentions to an even smaller device: your mouth. Dyson CameraJet is the company’s first-ever toothbrush, and it promises to do what no other oral cleaner has done before: clean between your teeth, the place that most people either miss or don’t spend enough time on with regular flossing.
The CameraJet toothbrush has a camera built into it. This may seem like a strange idea, but six years of development and hundreds of thousands of dental images have gone into the creation of this unique technology. Dyson thinks it has discovered a new way to clean between your teeth. Read on to find out everything you need to know about this innovative product.
What Is the Dyson CameraJet Toothbrush?
The CameraJet is an electric toothbrush with a camera built into the brush head. Dyson’s dental system comprises a toothbrush, a charging and replacement station, a travel case, and its own toothpaste and mouthwash.
It’s easy to understand why most of us do a decent job cleaning the flat surfaces of our teeth, but where plaque tends to accumulate are in the tight crevices, and this product attempts to target these areas more precisely than we can manage on our own, eliminating a need for flossing, or at least making it more effective.
How the Camera and AI Technology Actually Works
At the heart of the CameraJet are what Dyson like to call its “Gap Optical Targeting system”. A small macro-lens camera (like a pencil tip in size) in the brush head takes up to 28 images every second (while brushing) and uses machine-learning software, trained on an algorithm of 470,000 dental images (used in its construction), to identify gaps in the user’s teeth.
The CameraJet can detect spaces between teeth and then deliver a tiny jet of liquid into the gap (in the shape of a cone) in less than 100 milliseconds (around the time it takes to blink). Dyson worked with the National University of Singapore (NUS) to test its toothbrush prototype, using artificial plaque, and claim that it removed almost 70% more plaque from the tricky to clean areas than leading electric toothbrushes.
Brushing, Flossing and Rinsing All in One Go
Traditional water flossers have a narrow jet of water. The CameraJet uses a much wider cone-shaped jet to clean a bigger area of interdental space in one go. This means the user doesn’t have to floss separately following a brushing session – flossing and brushing are combined into a single step.
The user also has the option to have the CameraJet flossing function work automatically and intelligently by recognising the spaces between teeth and activating the jet to clean them, or to be in manual mode. Furthermore, the amount of pressure is adjustable, meaning that the CameraJet is suitable for both delicate gums and heavy brushing. The MyDyson app is used to make the choice between the two modes and to adjust the settings.
The MyDyson App: A Dentist’s-Eye View of Your Own Mouth
Via the MyDyson app (paired via Bluetooth), you can see a live video feed from inside your own mouth while brushing, as if you were the dentist. The app also features guided cleaning sessions, instructional videos, and a helpful coverage map of the areas you’re cleaning and the ones you’re missing.
It accumulates personal information about you and your dental hygiene, like a personal trainer for your teeth. I’m most impressed by the ability to see if you’re actually doing what the dentist told you to do, or if you’re fooling yourself, as many of us do at the dentist’s office.
What About Privacy? Is the Camera Recording You?
It’s a good question to ask before sticking a camera on your toothbrush. Dyson’s response is that the footage isn’t stored anywhere, or shared, or used for anything other than showing up on your phone in the two minutes it takes you to brush your teeth. It’s never saved. And it’s only recorded when you’re looking at it, or when the camera is doing its auto-jetting thing.
Price, Colours and Where to Buy It
The Dyson CameraJet is priced at $499 and became available for purchase on 1 September 2026 at dyson. com, Dyson Demo Stores, and a few other retailers. The product is offered in two colors: Ceramic Blue and Ceramic Pink, and its price tag greatly exceeds any electric toothbrush on the market, making it closer to a luxury good category than a bathroom necessity.
Battery, Docking Station and Toothpaste
The included docking station charges the toothbrush and refills its mouth-washing reservoir with a press of a button in about three seconds. Dyson claims a full charge will last for roughly a week with two brushings and flossings daily. A travel bag is included for taking it all along on the road.
Dyson is working on its own SLS-free toothpaste, and a clear, low-foaming mouth-rinse designed to avoid obscuring the camera view by swirling bubbles; otherwise, you can use any toothpaste or mouthwash with the CameraJet. However, Dyson warns that using a foaming product will result in a poorer analysis of each gap.
Is the Dyson Toothbrush Worth It?
At $499, this is certainly not a frivolous expenditure. It’s an investment in good teeth. If you find yourself tempted to look at this product on a daily basis to see just what flossing mistakes you are making, then it’s money well spent. The savings on future dental bills may well outweigh the purchase price. If you are the kind of person that is always careful to floss, it’s still a great value. It will help you to be more aware of areas that might need extra attention.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does the Dyson toothbrush cost?
The Dyson CameraJet costs $499 and includes the toothbrush, a charging and refilling dock, a travel case, plus Dyson toothpaste and mouthrinse.
Does the Dyson CameraJet actually replace flossing?
Dyson designed it to replace the need for a separate flossing step, using its camera-guided jet to clean between teeth while you brush, rather than as an extra task afterwards.
Is the camera on the Dyson toothbrush always recording?
No. The camera only activates when you’re viewing the live feed in the MyDyson app or when the auto-jetting feature is running, and footage isn’t stored or shared.
What colours does the Dyson toothbrush come in?
It’s available in two colours: Ceramic Blue and Ceramic Pink.
How long does the battery last?
Dyson says a full charge lasts around a week with twice-daily brushing and flossing sessions.
Can I use my regular toothpaste with the Dyson CameraJet?
Yes, though Dyson notes that foamy toothpaste or mouthwash can partly obstruct the camera’s view, which is why it’s developing its own low-foam versions.
