Church & Dwight recently introduced Arm & Hammer Tooth Tunes, a new line of toothbrushes for kids. The patented technology delivers high quality sound by broadcasting music into the jaw, which is then transmitted through the inner ear, allowing the person brushing their teeth to hear the music. Each brush features two minutes of music to encourage longer brushing. Each brush includes one song, and nine different brushes feature rock anthems or pop hits such as “All Day” performed by Cody Simpson, or “I Gotta Feeling” performed by Black Eyed Peas.
