Colgate-Palmolive is recalling their Motion Electric Toothbrush after receiving reports that the devices "exploded" in the hands of some users.

Health Canada says there have been nine reports of the problem in Canada, though none involved long-term injuries.

Health Canada is advising Canadians who have this brand of electric toothbrush to stop using the device, which is no longer licensed for sale.

Colgate-Palmolive isn't making the Motion Electric model anymore, but there may still be some stock in stores until the recall is completed.

The Motion Electric Toothbrush is a battery-operated device. The head of the unit contains both rotating and stationary brushes and the handle contains the motor and the battery.

Health Canada says consumers who have the toothbrushes should contact Colgate-Palmolive directly.

Since I completely invented him, would I not know?

But share, how did he put it?
