The Max combines sonic flossing and brushing into a single product, making your daily ritual a bit more efficient. With the company’s patented Flossguard technology, a cushioning Bite Bumper, and Microfloss, this toothbrush and flossing combination goes above and beyond any electric bathroom device you’ve had before. Flossguard protects your gums from pain and trauma in two ways — first, by maintaining the floss in its recommended position, and secondly, by controlling how deep the floss travels as it goes between your teeth and toward your gums.

As for the Bite Bumper, this feature “acts as a soft pad for opposing teeth allowing for gentle biting pressure to be applied during flossing,” Flossolution explains. And when the Flossguard and Bite Bumper are coupled with the company’s Microfloss, heralded as “the thinnest floss on the market that glides between teeth easily with little resistance,” you’ve a winning combination.

And because the brush’s rechargeable battery lasts more than four weeks and has five different sonic power modes, you may just get a rave review from your dentist during your next visit.

“Our products are designed to move beyond the limits of brushing by cleaning 100 percent of tooth surfaces in a way that is quick, easy and painless,” said Dr. Tim Pruett, CEO of Flossolution. “I look forward to Best Buy customers appreciating the improvement in their oral health.”

You can pick up a Max by Flossolution at Best Buy for $100, and Flossarm replacement packs for $15.

Avoid saying these words near your smart speaker, if you don’t want it to listen

Echo Alexa

Smart speakers have been the focus of controversy and concern for some time, particularly with regard to privacy rights. Many people worry their smart devices are listening in on conversations even when the activation word has not been spoken -- and to some extent, those fears are reasonably founded. After news surfaced last summer that Google sent its audio recordings to a third party to be transcribed, many people feared their private lives had been compromised.

This news had some re-evaluating the privacy settings on smart devices, and in some instances, changing the activation phrase to something that might not be so easily triggered. It also called into question the accuracy of smart assistant listening; if you speak a word that's almost but not quite the activation phrase, will it work?
