Description

Electric toothbrush with monitoring

The present invention relates to an electric toothbrush equipped with a monitoring function, and more specifically, equipped with a camera for photographing an oral dental condition on one side of the electric toothbrush head portion provided with the bristles to check and diagnose the dental condition of the user in real time. It relates to an electric toothbrush equipped with a monitoring function.

In general, toothbrushes are used to prevent the occurrence of dental diseases such as tooth decay by removing foreign substances between teeth, and the correct toothbrushing is expected to be an oral hygiene effect and whitening effect of teeth. .

Such a toothbrush is classified into a manual type in which a user brushes manually, and an electric type in which the bristles move straight up and down with rotational motion or vibration according to the driving of the motor.

A general toothbrush includes a handle and a toothbrush equipped with a toothbrush, and is mainly used to remove plaque and plaque causing food debris and tooth decay between teeth and gums after ingestion by physical friction method. .

However, it is known that about 20,000 bacteria or bacteria exist in the oral cavity, and it is difficult to cope with various bacteria living in the oral cavity simply by removing foreign substances through physical friction. Brush your teeth.

Representative brushing methods using such a toothbrush is a side-by-side method of wiping by moving the toothbrush from side to side and a rotating method of wiping by rotating the bristles of the toothbrush on the surface of the tooth.

Most people easily learn and use the side magic method by brushing the toothbrush by scrubbing it from side to side, and brushing teeth is difficult to remove foreign substances caught between the teeth and to the outside. If you brush your teeth for long periods of time, you will wear out teeth, such as fangs and small molar teeth. It is easy to cause.

If the above process is further progressed, the gums slump down and cause gingival disease, which causes periodontal disease. Cervical abrasion or gingival contraction symptoms do not feel irritating at the early stage of development, but when it goes beyond a certain level, As the nerves are stimulated, they are cold or cold, and when they brush their teeth or eat food, they are irritated in the area, causing severe pain.

Compared to the lateral technique, the toothbrush's bristles rotating and wiping are easier to remove the foreign matter between the teeth than the lateral technique, and the toothbrush is less loaded, which reduces the wear of the teeth. This can help prevent cervical abrasions and gingival retraction.

The conventional manual toothbrushes commonly used in the related art have a limitation in cleaning the teeth in a short time because the teeth are cleaned as the user moves the bristles up, down, left, and right. The spread of electric toothbrushes that can be cleaned easily is spreading rapidly.

However, the conventional electric toothbrush is only for quick and convenient brushing, and it is possible to check the oral condition of the user (for example, the location of dental caries or tartar, the location of attachment of food waste, the wound part, etc.). There are limitations that cannot be used for other purposes.

Therefore, when brushing teeth using such a conventional toothbrush, it is checked through the wall mirror installed in the bathroom, etc., whether food debris between teeth is properly removed. In the case of the inner tooth, it is difficult to see with the naked eye, so it is impossible to check the details of the tooth. There is a problem that can not determine the exact tooth condition.

In particular, if there are symptoms such as gum ache or bleeding during brushing, it is impossible to check the details of the teeth through mirrors, so that the correct dental condition cannot be self-diagnosed, and also dental diseases such as dental caries or tartar. In order to confirm the need to visit the dentist, if it is difficult to visit the dentist directly, there is a problem that miss the time of early treatment.

When the user visits the dentist to check the condition of the teeth, expensive medical expenses and examination costs are consumed, and a large burden is felt for periodic medical treatment. As a result, intensive care of the teeth becomes poor, which causes problems of serious dental diseases.

Therefore, the user can easily and easily check and diagnose the condition of the tooth in real time on the electric toothbrush used in the home, and health care services such as preventive diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up care anytime, anywhere by interworking with communication devices and smartphones Development of an electric toothbrush capable of providing health services that can be provided is required.
