French toothbrush company Kolibree, which offers what it calls the first connected electric toothbrush, has closed a Series A round of financing with leading venture capital and industrial groups SEB Alliance, Innovacom, Cap Horn Invest and the Dental Investment Group for Health.

Connected via Bluetooth, Kolibree’s Go Pirate (for children) and Coach (for adults)  brushes motivate and train users to properly brush their teeth. 3D motion sensors transmit real-time feedback on the length of time, areas brushed, and how hard the user brushes.

“Following a successful launch showcasing Kolibree’s innovative disruptive technology at CES (Consumer Electronics Show 2015), Innovacom is excited about our investment in Kolibree to keep the momentum going in North America,” said Innovacom partner Vincent Deltrieu.

As a result of this new funding, Kolibree says it is building relationships with growing numbers of dental professionals and consumers across the US.
