Colgate recently launched a new smart toothbrush, which is titled 'hum by Colgate.' The smart toothbrush operates using [AI as well as connected](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gum-health1) sponsors. The new Ai-powered toothbrush is available in two different models, one with a [rechargeable battery](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/suri-sustainable-electric-toothbrush), and one with a replaceable battery system. The rechargeable unit is priced at $69.99, and the replaceable toothbrush will cost $49.99.

Colgate's 'hum by Colgate' brush is able to monitor the position of the toothbrush using a gyroscope and an accelerometer that can monitor speed. The sensors are able to track how a person brushes their teeth. The data can be synced to an app, which will inform users how they can improve their brushing routines.
