Summary

This study tests whether a personalized digital coaching app, used with an electric toothbrush, helps adults brush twice daily for two minutes. 230 participants from California dental clinics will use the app for 19 weeks, receiving tailored feedback and reminders. The goal is to see if this approach improves brushing habits more than standard instructions alone.
