- It combines brushing and camera-guided water flossing.
- Early reliability reports raise questions despite a positive review.

## Summary

Dyson’s £419.99 CameraJet combines an electric toothbrush with an automatic water flosser, using a camera to spot gaps between teeth and direct water or mouthwash at them. The review found it performs both jobs well enough to recommend, though its price is far above that of conventional brushes and flossers.

A 100,000-pixel camera captures 28 images per second, while a dock refills the 12.5ml tank at the press of a button. Dyson temporarily withdrew the product after reports of early failures, attributing them to a component issue in a small number of batches; the reviewer’s unit worked without problems, but the complex design may carry reliability risks.
