    The American Dental Association recommends using an electric toothbrush over a manual one, but even with the added power, it's possible to miss spots while cleaning your teeth. The forthcoming Prophix smart video toothbrush from Onvi aims to improve your brushing efficiency by showing you a live stream of the inside of your mouth -- on your phone.
    The Prophix packs in a small light and an HD camera, capable of recording 1080p video and 10-megapixel stills. This allows users to get a closeup view of where the brush head is cleaning -- not to mention the flecks of food and gunk caught between your teeth. Luckily, the system includes four interchangeable attachments -- a brush, a prophy cup, a rubber picking tip and a tiny mirror -- to help you scrub away that effluence. What's more, if you happen to find a trouble spot, you'll be able to snap a photo of it to show your dentist later.
    For the ability to film the inside of your mouth you'd have to pay $400.
