Brushing with braces can be frustrating—but it doesn’t have to be. BrushO is designed to support people with braces, retainers, or aligners through AI-powered zone detection, real-time brushing feedback, and smart oral hygiene guidance. Whether you’re a teen adjusting to brackets or a parent monitoring a child’s brushing habits, BrushO makes orthodontic care smarter, easier, and more effective.

Wearing braces makes brushing much more complex than usual. Brackets and wires trap food particles, make it difficult to reach the gumline, and raise the risk of plaque buildup and gum issues.
• Debris stuck around brackets and archwires
• Missed zones near the gumline and molars
• Uneven pressure damaging gums
• Difficulty maintaining consistent oral care habits
Without the right tools, it’s easy to overlook essential areas or apply incorrect pressure that could harm your gums or enamel during orthodontic treatment.
BrushO is a smart toothbrush specifically designed to address the challenges of orthodontic care. Its AI technology helps users brush smarter—not harder.
BrushO doesn’t rely on traditional 30-second quadrants. It divides the mouth into 6 zones and 16 surfaces, ensuring thorough coverage around braces and along the gumline.
The BrushO app provides instant brushing feedback on pressure, duration, and missed spots. Visual heatmaps and brushing scores help users see where they need to improve—especially helpful for kids and teens.
Choose from multiple brushing modes like:
• Ultra-Gentle Care for sensitive gums
• Deep Clean for plaque-prone areas
These options are perfect for different orthodontic phases, from initial braces to post-treatment retainers.
Parents can use the app to monitor brushing sessions. Alerts notify users if they apply too much pressure or repeatedly miss hard-to-reach areas near braces.
BrushO is recommended by over 40 UK dental clinics and introduced by Stanford School of Medicine, making it a trustworthy choice for orthodontic care.
• Teens love the app and gamified experience
• Parents appreciate reduced nagging and better hygiene habits
• Orthodontists value how it prevents decalcification and gum damage
BrushO’s “Brush & Earn” reward system keeps kids motivated. Completing brushing goals earns points, which can be exchanged for free lifetime brush head refills—a unique way to build consistent habits during orthodontic treatment.

Watermelon seems soft and easy to clear, but stringy fibers can slide between front teeth and linger unnoticed. Those tiny strands often become obvious only later, when the lips, tongue, or a sip of water catches the same front contact again and again.

Upper molars are built with broad chewing tables that help break down fibrous foods efficiently. Their width, cusp pattern, and back-of-mouth position let them spread force across tough textures so chewing can shift from cutting to true grinding.

Sticky rice snacks can wedge into molar grooves and between-teeth spaces long after the snack feels finished. When those starches sit for hours, they hold onto plaque and make the back teeth feel coated, crowded, and more difficult to clean by late afternoon.

Long workouts, salty sweat, open-mouth breathing, and delayed rinsing can leave lips dry and gum edges tender even when teeth seem fine. The discomfort usually reflects dehydration, friction, and mild plaque stress gathering around already-dry tissues.

Pressure map recaps can reveal that rushed brushing is not random but repeats in the same zones. When the same areas keep receiving too much force or too little time, the pattern becomes easier to fix than vague promises to brush more carefully.

Sleeping with the mouth open can dry the back of the mouth for hours and leave gum edges feeling raw by morning. The discomfort often comes from prolonged airflow, reduced saliva protection, and a rougher surface environment rather than from a sudden overnight injury.

Incisors are designed to shear and portion soft foods before chewing shifts to the back teeth. Their thin edges start the breakdown process efficiently, creating smaller pieces that molars can later grind with less effort.

Slow cold brew sipping can keep the mouth in a repeated acid-and-dryness loop for hours. Instead of letting saliva recover between exposures, frequent small drinks extend the period during which enamel and gumline comfort are trying to rebound.

Canines do more than sit between incisors and premolars. Their long roots and stable position help guide side-to-side jaw movements, distribute force, and support smoother transitions when food is moved from cutting to grinding.

Bedtime score dips often reveal a specific fatigue pattern rather than general inconsistency. When tired hands stop fully reaching the back molars, evening brushing can look complete on the surface while leaving the hardest-to-reach areas undercleaned night after night.
