New Motivation for Children and iPhone Fans to Brush Their Teeth
KREFELD, Germany, October 14, 2010/PRNewswire/ --
- The Daily Battle in the Bathroom
To many children, brushing their teeth is just a cumbersome chore, which
leads to the same old frustrating battle in the bathroom between parents and
their offspring. But now Krefeld-based psychiatrist Dr Einhardt Illing has
developed an iPhone app which provides guidance and motivation for brushing.
And a little bit of fun to boot.
The new tooth brushing motivator "Motivetrix" guides the user through
brushing using color sequences and motivates them with imaginary painting.
The iPhone screen shows a diagram of the human set of teeth and displays the
individual tooth areas in different colors at intervals. The user follows the
color sequence with his or her toothbrush. Brushing is complete when the
whole set of teeth is colored in.
The imaginary coloring in turns brushing into a game. The 2-3 minute
brushing time specified by dentists is over in a flash.
And, there are also educational benefits attached. Children learn through
the color distinctions that they have different teeth in their mouth. They
remember the groups of teeth more easily thanks to the color markings.
The "Motivetrix" tooth brushing motivator is primarily aimed at parents
and their children, but will also help kindergarten and pre-school teachers
as well as dentists in their prevention programs.
About the tooth brushing motivator
The iPhone tooth brushing motivator app is available from Apple's App
Store for Euro 2.49. It is available in German and English. Requires iOS 3.2
or later.
