Brush Your Teeth With The Sun

By Mark Lorenz on August 20th, 2010

And wash yourself with rainbows™. Or something.

Yes. That’s right. Pretty soon, the sun will be able to facilitate your teeth being clean. So the next time you see it lingering in the sky, it will no longer be the sun to you – but a beaming beacon of your contaminated mouth.

That’s right – toothbrushes are the latest innovation to be turned green. Thankfully, you will not be brushing your teeth with bundled sections of hemp – but a toothbrush that uses the sun to power itself. Which will probably be the first technological advance to turn against us when the robots plan their uprising – what better place is there to torture a human than in the mouth.

But I digress. This isn’t a place to plan out the future demise of the human race – it’s to inform you about considerable technical advances. Like the Soladey-J3X toothbrush – which works by transmitting electrons through the middle of the bar, which react with acid in saliva and cause a chemical reaction.

Shiken, the Japanese manufacturers, are hoping that their invention will render toothpaste obsolete. Which is a wish that won’t come true for another twenty or thirty years.

Unless we give the robots exactly what they want.
