Toothbrush Pressure Sensor 1 article

A Toothbrush Pressure Sensor is a feedback feature that detects when brushing force exceeds or enters a defined threshold. In powered toothbrushes it may trigger a light, sound, vibration change or motor response, giving the user an immediate cue to reduce pressure at the tooth or gingival margin. The sensor does not remove plaque by itself and may be integrated into several brush types. Its role is behavioural feedback and force monitoring, which distinguishes it from a timer that measures brushing duration or a brush head that performs the mechanical cleaning.
