I've never put $499 in my mouth before.

I've never thought I needed to.

Dyson, however, is trying to convince me otherwise.

In other words, it lets you livestream the inside of your mouth while you clean your teeth.

It even offers feedback, like any good dentist.

Six years and 661 engineers.

A 100k-pixel macro-lens camera.
