A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

Seeing as electric brushes have already been around for decades I doubt it will happen.
Also because electric brushes don't brush for you. You still use them the same way as a regular toothbrush, they just clean better.
Wait... Are you people doing a "brushing" action back and forth with your electric toothbrushes?
I just move it across each surface once in a slow kinda up and down zig zag — the way you would use an electric buffer or power washer to clean a long narrow surface with multiple sides... Upper set of teeth first; front, left side of mouth to right side of mouth. Repeat for top and back surfaces of teeth. Then repeat it all again for lower set of teeth.
I guess the front of teeth could be combined into one surface, but I'm a raging psychopath.
This is the proper technique. It doesn't cause as much erosion of gums and enamel.
I want like a USB c powered whole mouth toothbrush that looks like two u-shaped chainsaws full of tooth bristles that just wiggle back and forth very quickly and spray toothpaste and mouthwash as they go.
Where is that innovation?
Like a car wash for teeth
I've something like that but it requires brushing one half of your mouth at a time.
