LONDON, UK: After the recent launch of its latest Sonicare toothbrush, Philips has just unveiled another addition to its cloud-enabled health ecosystem of devices and tools. Equipped with Breathometer technology, the Sonicare Breathcare is a new device that is intended to help users measure, track and analyse their breath quality easily and reliably.
The small and compact device will be available from early 2017 and allow users to analyse a sample of their breath in under less than 30 seconds, company representatives told Dental Tribune Online on Thursday at the BDIA Dental Showcase in London. The results are displayed in real time and can be synchronised with the Philips Sonicare app for further feedback and analysis, such as breath quality pattern.
Also on display in London for the first time to a professional audience is the new Sonicare Flexcare Platinum Connected. The blue-tooth enabled toothbrush synchronises with the Philips Sonicare app to track brushing habits in real time. A number of sensors track and analyse the user’s brushing routine, while a personalised 3-D mouth map highlights trouble spots in order to coach the user on his or her brushing technique. Location sensors track where the user is brushing for too short a duration and a SmartTimer ensures that the user brushes for the recommended time in each segment of the mouth. Moreover, sensors alert the user when he or she is applying too much pressure or scrubbing the teeth rather than guiding the brush. A personalised touch-up feature identifies missed spots during brushing and encourages the user to go back to clean these.
Philips is currently exhibiting its large portfolio of oral health care products at Booth N23. An expert programme is being offered from Thursday to Saturday, with speakers presenting on a wide range of topics, including paediatric dentistry, tooth whitening and orthodontics.
