Connected dental device
First Claim
1. A dental device, comprising:
- a memory that stores instructions; and
a processor that executes the instructions to perform operations, the operations comprising;
monitoring, based on use of the dental device by a first user, first information associated with the first user and the dental device, wherein the first information associated with the first user and the dental device is obtained from a sensor of the dental device;
detecting a dental condition of the first user by comparing visual content of the first user obtained by the dental device during use of the dental device to previous visual content obtained during a prior use of the dental device;
determining, based on the first information associated with the first user and the dental device, an action to be performed by the first user with the dental device;
transmitting, to a user device of the first user, a first notification indicating the action to be performed with the dental device;
determining, based on second information associated with the first user and the dental device obtained from the sensor, if the action has been performed with the dental device; and
transmitting, if the action has been performed, a second notification to the user device of the first user indicating successful completion of the action.

Abstract
A system for providing a connected dental device is disclosed. In particular, the system may include integrating a network chip or transceiver into a dental device, such as a toothbrush, so as to enable the dental device to communicate with a user device and one or more accessory devices. Once the user device and one or more accessory devices are paired with the user device, the system may track information associated with the dental device and the user using the dental device. Based on the tracked information, the system may determine an action to be performed by the user using the dental device. Using the dental device, the system may transmit a notification to the user device to alert the user of the action that needs to be performed. The system may also transmit notifications providing status information for the dental device and the one or more accessory devices.

14. A method, comprising:
-
monitoring, based on use of a dental device by a first user, first information associated with the first user and the dental device, wherein the first information associated with the first user and the dental device is obtained from a sensor of the dental device; determining, based on the first information associated with the first user and the dental device, an action to be performed by the first user with the dental device, wherein the determining is performed by utilizing instructions from a memory that are executed by a processor, wherein the first information includes information indicating times when the dental device is activated by the first user; detecting a dental condition of the first user by comparing visual content of the first user obtained by the dental device during use of the dental device to previous visual content obtained during a prior use of the dental device; transmitting, to a user device of the first user, a first notification indicating the action to be performed with the dental device; determining, based on second information associated with the first user and the dental device obtained from the sensor, if the action has been performed with the dental device; and transmitting, if the action has not been performed, a second notification to the user device of the first user reminding the first user to perform the action. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19)

20. A non-transitory computer-readable device comprising instructions, which when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
-
analyzing, based on use of the dental device by a first user, first information associated with the first user and the dental device, wherein the first information associated with the first user and the dental device is obtained from a sensor of the dental device, wherein the first information includes information indicating times when the dental device is activated by the first user; detecting a dental condition of the first user by comparing visual content of the first user obtained by the dental device during use of the dental device to previous visual content obtained during a prior use of the dental device; determining, based on the first information associated with the first user and the dental device, an action to be performed by the first user with the dental device; providing, to a user device of the first user, a first notification indicating the action to be performed with the dental device; determining, based on second information associated with the first user and the dental device obtained from the sensor, if the action has been performed with the dental device; and providing, if the action has been performed, a second notification to the user device of the first user indicating successful completion of the action.
