Thanks To Video Games, Brushing Your Teeth Just Got A Hell Of A Lot Weirder

My son just turned two years old. Trying to brush his teeth is like trying to wrestle a greased-up piglet. In the future I sense that things are only going to get worse. My only hope is this weird-as-hell toothbrush that transforms the exercise into a goofy video game.

It’s called ‘Grush’ and it’s a “connected gaming toothbrush for kids”. I am looking at the above image and I’m restraining tears of laughter. It’s such a crazy idea, but it might just work! Apparently it lets parents and dentists track children’s brushing and somehow manages to reward kids for correct brush technique.

Actually, I think I might just get this for myself.

Grush launches at CES this week, no idea when it’ll hit stores in Australia.
