System, method and apparatus for cognitive oral health management

Abstract:

Approaches presented herein enable cognitive oral health management. Specifically, data from at least one internet of things (IoT) sensor and data from at least one visual image sensor are collected over time for a user via one or more sensors operatively coupled with one or more personal daily oral care devices as the user is performing a periodic oral care activity with the one or more personal daily oral care devices. Collected data are subjected to cognitive diagnostics to identify abnormalities in a user's oral healthcare regimen and physiological abnormalities within the oral cavity by categorizing data. A report for a medical professional may be generated providing recommendation of potential diagnoses and treatment options.
