TruthBrush is a dentist-recommended smart toothbrush tracker that monitors brushing duration and mouth coverage to help families build healthier daily oral care habits.

About

TruthBrush is a smart toothbrush tracker trusted by over 100,000 users worldwide and recognized with a CES Innovation Award in Digital Health and a Parents' Picks Best Products Award. The compact tracker clips onto virtually any toothbrush—manual or electric—and uses built-in sensors to automatically detect the start of each brushing session, requiring no button presses or app launches. The device tracks brushing duration, reminding users to reach the dentist-recommended two minutes with an audible beep, and maps mouth coverage to show which sections of the mouth are being cleaned—distinguishing real brushing from toothpaste application or rinsing. All data syncs to the TruthBrush app, which provides clear progress reports and highlights where improvement is needed. The system supports multiple trackers simultaneously, making it an ideal solution for families who want to monitor and encourage everyone's brushing habits from a single app dashboard. The optional TruthBrush Hub passively collects and uploads brush data without needing Bluetooth active or the app open, making data collection truly hands-free. According to TruthBrush's user research, 96% of users showed significantly improved mouth coverage after one month, 84% brushed longer than 90 seconds after three months, and 62% improved their daily brush counts after just one month. The product line includes the Classic Tracker (starting at $35), the Pro Tracker with a replaceable battery, family bundles, and a flexible monthly plan starting at $1.99 per user.
