When I first told my dentist about the Feno Smartbrush, eyebrows were raised.
Dont use that, she quipped as I explained the concept of Fenos rather revolutionary approach to dental hygiene.
This time-saving cross between a football players mouthguard and a power drill comes packed with tech, too.
It features wireless charging, health tracking and performance data, and a camera for scanning your mouth.
So I took the plunge and gave Feno a whirl.
Heres what I did and didnt love.
Connected dentistry
I love the concept of Feno as the future of connected dentistry.
Getting one involves taking pictures of your mouth so that get a custom-sized TrueFit Mouthpiece.
We apply tech to every other area of our lives, so why not oral hygiene?
The app also features streaks, video brushing tutorials, and more.
High octane brushing
Inside your mouth, Feno is a pretty daunting experience.
For the uninitiated, the mouthpiece is pretty big and not that comfortable to use.
Its a very strange sensation and definitely takes a while to get used to.
The first couple of days yielded some bleeding, which Feno says is to be expected.
The toothpaste included, while rather delicious and foamy for easy program on the mouthpiece, doesnt contain fluoride.
Thats why Feno included xylitol; theres some crossover in terms of the benefits.
Fluoride in toothpaste helps reduce demineralization of enamel, promotes re-mineralization, and inhibits the metabolism of bacteria.
If Feno can get fluoride into its toothpaste, Ill definitely revisit its Smartbrush.
Theres a lot to like here, and the tech is very impressive.
The Feno Smartbrush is available from Feno.co in the Founders Edition Bundle for $299.
