Brushlink integrated into SOE

The Brushlink device is a tiny hi-tech Bluetooth unit that attaches easily to any toothbrush and monitors brushing frequency, duration and, for the first time, angulation so that correct brushing angles can be encouraged, reinforced and monitored to help prevent gum disease. It effectively turns any toothbrush into a smart brush at around a tenth of the price of smart brushes currently on the market.

The accompanying free mobile phone app provides the user with real time brushing guidance and performance monitoring.  Each brushing session is scored and monitored and the cumulative data can be shared with dental professionals in order to target help and advice. Data can be stored for up to three months, so there is no need for patients to have their phones with them every time they brush.

The news coincides with Brushlink being available to buy on Amazon for the first time, bringing it within easy reach of thousands of new users.
