An extraoral suction device for managing aerosol emissions during dental procedures includes: a conduit; an adapter in fluid communication with the conduit; and a mount for mounting the extraoral suction device to a dental chair. The adapter is configured to be placed in fluid communication with a vacuum source to provide suction to the extraoral suction device. The conduit can be selectively manipulated to assume and maintain a position without support from an individual or designated support structure. A dental professional can thus manipulate the conduit to maintain a position in front of the oral cavity of a patient seated in the dental chair to direct aerosols emitted from the oral cavity of the patient into the extraoral suction device instead of the surrounding environment. The extraoral suction device can thus be combined with a dental chair and vacuum source to provide an improved dental chair system for dental procedures.

An intelligent tooth health-care system and an intelligent tooth cleaning device thereof. The intelligent tooth cleaning device includes a plurality of sensors capable of detecting conditions of mouth and teeth of a user. The user may obtain data relating to his/her health when he/she cleans the teeth. The sensors also detect the movement of the intelligent tooth cleaning device. The data of movement are transmitted to a mobile device and input to a computer tooth-cleaning game executed in the mobile device, whereby the user is guided by the computer tooth-cleaning game to clean his/her teeth. The data obtained by the sensors can also be transmitted to a server in the cloud for health analysis.

A disposable dental waste filter device has a body having a receiving end, and a separable cap having a tip end, the body for receiving and capturing therein amalgam that enters into the body through the tip end and the separable cap. A disposable dental waste filter device also has a body having a receiving end, a central lumen for receiving and capturing amalgam, a filter, and a circular leg portion having an exterior channel, and a separable cap having a tip end, a circular outer rim having a circular end ridge portion with the ridge portion adapted to be inserted into the exterior channel of the body for a snap fit engagement between the cap and the body, the body for receiving and capturing therein amalgam that enters into the body through the tip end and the separable cap.

A pathogen containment system for use during healthcare procedures is disclosed, comprising a flexible tubing dimensioned to extend around a user's mouth, the flexible tubing including a first end and a second end. A connector includes a central portion including a first side fittingly engaged with the first end of the flexible tubing and a second side fittingly engaged with the second end of the flexible tubing. An attachment port is positioned perpendicular to the central portion, the attachment port is in fluid communication via a vacuum tubing to a vacuum suction unit. A plurality of intake ports are provided on the flexible tubing to permit air to be drawn therethrough via the vacuum suction unit. The air intake ports capture a contaminant emitted from the user's mouth or the user's nose.
