Smart oral-care technology has moved well beyond two-minute timers. Dyson's CameraJet uses a tiny camera to find gaps and direct a water jet while you brush; Philips and Oclean have refreshed their connected ranges; and compact cordless water flossers are becoming easier to use away from a bathroom socket. This guide compares ten exact UK-available devices, focusing on what the technology changes rather than treating every app or screen as automatically useful.

The quick take
Why now
CameraJet arrived in September 2026, followed by new Philips and Oclean launches and fresh UK testing in October, making this a useful moment to compare what smart oral-care features actually do.
The useful split
Connected brushes concentrate on coverage, pressure and coaching; water flossers target the spaces a brush head cannot reach. CameraJet is unusual because it attempts both jobs in one system.
Where to start
Choose the cleaning format first, then decide whether an on-handle display, app history, travel charging or a separate water reservoir is worth paying for.
Recommendations
How to choose
Start by separating brushing from interdental cleaning. A connected toothbrush can help with timing, pressure and coverage, but it does not automatically replace flossing or professional advice. A cordless water flosser is a separate tool, useful when you value adjustable pressure, braces-friendly tips or a portable tank. CameraJet combines a sonic brush, camera and targeted jet, but its price and specialised consumables make it a very different proposition from a conventional brush. For smart models, check whether the feedback appears on the handle, in an app or both; a screen can be more convenient if you do not want a phone beside the sink. Battery life, charging method, replacement-head price and UK availability matter more over time than an impressive launch demonstration. If you have sensitive teeth, gum disease, braces or ongoing dental treatment, check the manufacturer's guidance and ask your dental professional which cleaning method suits you.
The interesting shift is not that every toothbrush now needs artificial intelligence. It is that oral-care devices are getting better at showing what happened while you brushed: where pressure was too high, which zones were missed and whether interdental spaces received attention. CameraJet is the most ambitious expression of that idea, while the other nine products show there are less expensive and often simpler ways to add useful feedback or water flossing.
The shopping list
10 things, well chosen.

Dyson CameraJet Electric Toothbrush with Flosser (Ceramic Ultra Blue)
CameraJet combines a sonic toothbrush, 100,000-pixel macro camera and targeted liquid jet. Dyson says its Gap Optical Targeting system analyses 28 images per second to identify spaces between teeth, while the MyDyson app can show coverage and live footage. It is the most technically ambitious option here, but also the most expensive and most dependent on a dedicated dock, tank and brush heads.

Philips Sonicare Next-Generation DiamondClean 9900 Prestige
The refreshed DiamondClean 9900 Prestige is Philips' premium connected brush, pairing sonic cleaning with pressure sensing and app-based guidance. Its value is less about novelty than refinement: a slim handle, travel case and coaching designed to make a familiar brushing format more consistent. It suits someone who wants premium feedback without a large colour display on the handle.

Oclean X Ultra 20 S Sonic Toothbrush
The X Ultra 20 S is the top screen-led model in Oclean's current UK range. It puts brushing guidance on the handle, so missed areas and feedback do not rely entirely on opening a phone app. Choose it if real-time coaching and a large interactive display feel genuinely useful; the trade-off is a more complex device and a higher price than a conventional sonic brush.

Oclean X Pro 20 S Sonic Toothbrush
Oclean's X Pro 20 S keeps the colour-screen approach at a lower tier than the Ultra. The display provides immediate feedback and can highlight areas that need more attention, while app connectivity stores more detailed reports. It is the balanced Oclean choice when you want visible coaching but do not need every feature from the flagship model.

Oclean X Lite S Sonic Toothbrush
The X Lite S is the most approachable route into Oclean's on-handle feedback. Its screen can show brushing results without turning the bathroom routine into a full app session, and the slimmer feature set keeps the price below the Pro and Ultra. It is a useful test of whether visual feedback changes your habits before spending on a flagship brush.

SURI Core 1.0 Sonic Toothbrush (Ember Orange)
SURI Core 1.0 brings the brand's clean, repair-minded design language to a simpler and less expensive sonic brush. It deliberately avoids a screen and heavy app layer, making it a useful counterpoint to the connected models in this guide. Pick it when a compact recyclable-head system and straightforward two-minute routine matter more than detailed data.

Oral-B iO10 Cosmic Black Special Edition
Oral-B's iO10 combines its round oscillating head with a colour handle display and the iO Sense charging base, which provides live zone guidance. It is a good fit for someone who prefers the familiar small round Oral-B head but wants more immediate feedback than a simple pressure light. The base takes up more counter space, and replacement-head costs should be included in the decision.

Laifen Wave Pro Electric Toothbrush (Transparent Black)
Laifen Wave Pro mixes sonic vibration with a wide 60-degree oscillating movement and adds pressure sensing, app adjustment and wireless charging. The transparent black finish makes its technology unusually visible, while the compact handle travels more easily than dock-based systems. It is the design-led alternative for readers curious about a brushing motion outside the usual sonic-versus-round-head split.
