Device for measuring dental parameters

The invention relates to a device for measuring dental parameters, more specifically for measuring alignment, bite pressure and dental occlusion in a subject, the device being formed from a main body containing a light source and at least one image-recording element linked with an image processor disposed in a control unit. The device includes a cartridge that is inserted automatically into the main body, the cartridge including a support for a plate of soft material for imprinting the bite of a subject. The main body also contains traction elements for the plate support and, optionally, for the at least one image-recording element, as well as a display screen disposed on the outside of said main body.

CHEEK RETRACTOR AND MOBILE DEVICE HOLDER

The present disclosure provides methods, computing device readable medium, devices, and systems that utilize a cheek retractor and/or a mobile device holder for case assessment and/or dental treatments. One cheek retractor includes a first and a second lip holder, both including imaging markers of a predetermined size to determine a scale of teeth of a user, where each imaging marker is located a predefined distance from the remaining imaging markers, and where the lip holder is to hold a cheek away from a mouth of a user to expose teeth of the user. A mobile device holder can include elements to receive a mobile device to capture images of the patient's teeth.

SECURELY MANAGING DIGITAL ASSISTANTS THAT ACCESS THIRD-PARTY APPLICATIONS
20220338964 · 2022-10-27 ·

Systems herein allow a digital assistant to make requests to applications, such as third-party applications, that access data in an enterprise mobility management (“EMM”) system. The digital assistant can link to a portal application and receive a token that identifies a user. A remote application on a user device can establish a session with the portal application as part of a single sign on (“SSO”). The session can identify the same user. The portal application can then link the digital assistant to the remote application. When the digital assistant makes a request to the portal application, a notification can be pushed to the remote application. The user can confirm the request, establishing an authorized session during which time the digital assistant can make additional requests to the portal application. The portal application can service the requests by accessing third-party applications available through the portal application and authorized for access by the SSO.

MOUTHPIECE AND ATTACHMENT

A mouthpiece for attachment to an imaging device comprises a tubular body having a first end and a second end, both ends being open, and a band of flexible material attached to the first end of the body. The band comprises an opposing portion opposite the first end of the body. It may also comprise one or more adjacent portions, connected to the first end of the body and parallel to the opposing portion.

A method of providing an accurate three-dimensional scan of a dental arch area is disclosed. The arch area has two segments and a connecting area between the two segments. The connecting area has homogeneous features. A connecting-geometry tool with at least one definable feature is affixed to the arch area. The definable feature overlays at least part of the connecting area. The arch area is scanned to produce a scanned dataset of the arch area. The definable feature of the connecting-geometry tool on the connection area is determined based on the scanned dataset. The dimensions of the arch area are determined based on the data relating to the definable features from the scanned dataset.
