First post was April 3rd...
I think this thread may have been inspired by an April Fool's Day joke post somewhere or other. Getting a scan of your teeth is easy enough for a dentist to do and they can advise if you are or are not brushing your teeth as well as you should.

OMG...Dentists will become the next farmers.
My dentist could easily mine for about 100 people just from the models he has made for various patients.
Those things are so cheap to be made and the "miner" should be that accurate to differentiate it would cost a fortune.

If they are successful in producing this product then that is correct Dentist will be generating more revenue then anyone else from this project.
I am still skeptical how effective this project will in real life. If the toothbrush can deliver what it promises like tracking and improving your oral hygiene then Dentist will suffer the most as they will lose a lot of client.

I think this idea has a positive and negative impact on the population, because some will brush all day just to mine coin which is not good for the health.

The OP didn't give the article link so I searched in google -
https://technode.com/2018/03/27/the-worlds-first-blockchain-toothbrush-lets-you-mine-coins-by-brushing-your-teeth/
And then, it was way back in 2018 and checked again the OP. This thread was old so wonder why suddenly it becomes alive?
But anyway, the site supposedly that will manufacture this toothbrush is 32 teeth ( https://32teeth.cn/indexv1.html ) and they are still up but don't know if the particular toothbrush for mining is a success. Couldn't find any updates what happened to this project? There's AYA ticker but there's no AYA token related to this project. So I assume, they are not successful?

With this the dentists will get to be the miners, and surely this toothbrush will be costing high in the market. What's the need of blockchain technology into the toothbrush. When one brush the teeth, it gets mined. Common man will brush twice a day. Morning two minutes and in the evening two minutes. In this four minutes of time what'll be got as the mined output.

How i wish this was true?! If this would be the best solution to fight hunger and corruption. This will become mainstream and people on street will keep smiling and happy everyday. Well i'll keep on supporting you on this thing. let's just hope for the best! even tho it's funny in the first place! LOL

Lol!! Ultimate troll product of 2018. How much hash power it is generating?

There will be the blockchain of the washing machine, the block chain of the car!
Block technique will be applied in every place, but we don't need too much ceng hotspots, fancy products, in addition to deepen consumer misunderstanding and conflict of chain blocks, they also seem to be no more.

Do this require some kind of toothpaste to work? You look so serious about it and you got me on that. Haven’t heard any news related to this toothbrush mining idea. Who knows, right? We can start cleaning teeth while earning an AYA token. This does require internet then a toothbrush with a WiFi is a must.
I know it’s a ridiculously too much for this purpose, but humans are weird naturally. Will wait for any progress man.

Blockchain is the biggest buzzword of the year. However, we are just now beginning to see what silly creative ways will this technology be applied. The newest example from China is a blockchain-based toothbrush by 32Teeth, currently crowdfunding the project through the JD Finance platform. The company aims to make your teeth really clean by applying not only blockchain technology, but also facial recognition, sensors, and big data. The toothbrush app offers precise identification of 16 tooth surface cleanliness levels, analyzes users’ brushing activity data, and offers a powerful intelligent reminder. It even has AR function which gives you an inside look (literally) into how you brush your teeth.
The toothbrush also tries to make each of your 32 teeth—the average number of teeth in an adult—a cryptocurrency mine. Brushing your teeth regularly rewards you with AYA tokens which can be exchanged for more toothbrushes, toothpaste, and dental hygiene services. Although some have ridiculed the product—one commentator worried that his mother might give it to the dog to chew so she can mine as much free stuff as possible—many consumers seem excited with the idea.

Ehhh, I think I'll wait until they start using laser-guided brushing, the MVP just isn't enough for me. This one's all yours.

That's a very good idea to me, using Blockchain technology to create a toothbrush, and see for yourself that toothbrushes are much needed or used by everyone, and I think this project will be a success.

People should be cautious with these bizarre ideas. Incentivize people with coins can make them brush their teeth excessively just to earn some more coins. This can damage the tooth enamel and in the end, they will end up spending more money on repairing their teeth than they can earn in coins for brushing them.

As ridiculous as this sound, I won't totally write it off as a form of respect to the amount of energy and thought that would have been put into this before coming out with this project. But that does not stop the project from being criticised because I can really see the practicability of this happening. People spread across the world using tooth brush then turn to coins for them somewhere across the world registered on a software? This has gone beyond the filling of details online which could be forged or faked but this, is locating you and know where you are at any point in time you obey the call of nature to brush your teeth. I will pass on this.

In the near future...
Buy our refrigerator with a built in cryptocurrency miner! The fridge mines crypto and automatically orders drinks online when it senses that you're getting low. Get free beer refills forever! Or at least as long as you got power and Internet.
You spend too much time sitting in your chair? How About mining while sitting? Our new chair turns your body heat into power that is converted into cryptocurrency!
Get tokens for taking a dump! Our toilet monitors your daily cycle and stores feces to produce methane...

Sounds funny. They're just complicating stuff. This hype to label everything with "blockchain" reminds me of the time people actually put radium in their toothpaste and lipstick.
I know it's possible to recognize the face with a software though I wonder how they'll track the brushing movement in the mouth. Would it be per stroke or per seconds that you brush it? Looks a bit hilarious but yeah, probably harder to fake than fitbit. How come no one has yet thought of a Pokemon Go style of mining?
atleast the tooth brushing idea thought outside of the box to reduce risk of fake 'mining' by having ways to check a task is actually done by a sole individual
seems better than an idea last year about a fitbit 'jogging' miner.. which ended up with people just selotaping their fitbit to their ceiling fan to fake movement for free 'points'.

What's the purpose of this coin? Trading your prosthesis for a brace?

Philips Sonicare does this without a blockchain.
My family has been using them for 4 years and we're just going to the dentist for annual check-up, no cavity no spots no tartar.
