Tiny Bluetooth mic drilled into your teeth


Tech companies go to great pains to ensure you have the latest and greatest in geeky gadgetry and techie trinkets each and every day. Are you willing to go through similar pains to integrate said tech into your life?
If so, Chinese electronics wholesaler Chinavasion has just the thing. It's a Bluetooth headset that is designed to fit a 1.7mm deep, 2.2mm diameter hole in your tooth (tooth hole not included). As the vendor so kindly points out, "All dental work should be performed by a qualified dentist, Chinavasion does not take responsibility for injury resulting from the installation of this product." It does, however, list "installation tools" in the included accessories... though we're certainly not advocating any DIY dentistry.
The tiny mic picks up sound vibration in the mouth to transmit what the vendor promises to be "incredibly clear sound."
No pain, no gain, as they say. However, given that you still require an external Bluetooth clip with headphones (and, what in the product imagery looks suspiciously like a hole for a mic), we'll hold off for the full cerebral cell phone implant.
