I remember when these came out. They vibrated the song against your teeth and used your mouth as the speaker. It was weird.

The song trains kids to brush their teeth for the whole 4 minutes

Those tooth brushes played music through bone conduction - it sent vibrations through your teeth, your skull and then your inner ear.
If you want bone conduction with a beard trimmer you'd have to press it against your face so hard that you won't have any cheeks left at the end of the song

When I was a kid I had a ninja turtles toothbrush where if you pressed a button on the base it gave a monologue that began with, "We work for good and right and always do it well..." for over two decades I have been trying to remember the rest. It bugs me much more than it should that I can't. Like a word your trying to remember in a conversation, it sits at the back of my brain taunting me. I've tried to look it up but apparently the is no database of early 90's toothbrush monologues. Still, I can't accept that I may never know the rest.

My hearing aid works using this exact same mechanism of action. (Bone conduction)

Mankind has made some real wasteful things over the years. No wonder everything is full of micro plastics.

Assuming that the batteries are replaceable/rechargeable, and the head changeable, at best a kid will be sick of the song after 3 months (the parents a lot sooner), and I don’t see it having a way to replace the song. This is literally designed as a gimmick to go straight to the landfill.

And any night the kid forgets to brush is a night the parents don’t have to hear Survivor from a 4 cent speaker. After 2 weeks no parent is going to go ‘I didn’t hear survivor play, you didn’t brush your teeth!’, they’re going to be thankful.

"We work for good and right and always do it well We're teenage mutant ninja turtles. My name is Raphael. Brush three times a day and after pizza pie. It's good to do just what we say, because turtles never lie. I'll be here each day standing on this tower. Brushing our way is such fun it must be turtle power. HaHa!"
