Abstract

The idea to determine the alignment of the teeth and jaw placement. This entirely covers the examination of human teeth between the age of neonatal to adolescence where the majority of the teeth issues and problems occur. We know for a fact that humans up to the age of 8 have milk teeth that constantly get replaced so these issues can be diagnosed early and treated accordingly. So this device uses a piezoelectric sensor or pressure gauge to measure the pressure applied while biting. These parameters are analyzed and then fed to a microcontroller where appropriate techniques are adapted to give a detailed analysis and determine the intensity of the issue. This system uses an amalgam of electronics and the medical sector. This is a portable structure that can be implemented in a dentist’s workplace.
