In some cases, methods, means, elements, and circuits that are well known to the person skilled in the art are not described in detail in order to emphasize the idea of ​​the present disclosure.

[0024] To protect oral health, it is most important to develop good brushing habits, such as mastering the correct brushing position, intensity, and duration. Electric toothbrushes are currently widely used oral care products that can help users improve the cleanliness of their teeth. However, with current electric toothbrush technology, it is impossible to remind the user when incorrect brushing technique occurs, which does not help the user develop good brushing habits.

[0025] Against this background, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method for controlling an electric toothbrush. Based on real-time monitoring data, the cleanliness level of each area of ​​the target user's teeth can be determined, and the target user can be prompted in real time via the base associated with the electric toothbrush to guide the user in adjusting their brushing posture and duration, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the oral cavity and helping the user develop good brushing habits. A method for controlling an electric toothbrush according to the embodiment of the present disclosure is explained in detail below.

[0026] Fig. Figure 1 shows a flowchart of a method for controlling an electric toothbrush according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As in Fig. As shown in Figure 1, the method for controlling an electric toothbrush can be performed by electronic devices such as terminal equipment or servers. The terminal equipment can be a user equipment (UE), a mobile device, a user terminal, a mobile phone, a cordless phone, a personal digital assistant (PDA), a handheld device, a computer device, a vehicle device, a portable device, etc. The computer-readable commands stored in memory are called by the processor, thereby executing the method for controlling the electric toothbrush. Alternatively, the method for controlling an electric toothbrush can be executed by a server. As shown in Figure 1, the method for controlling the electric toothbrush can be performed by a server. Fig. As shown in Figure 1, the procedure for controlling an electric toothbrush comprises the following steps: Step S11: Determining real-time monitoring data during a target user's tooth brushing based on an electric toothbrush, and transmitting real-time monitoring data to a base associated with the electric toothbrush based on a wireless communication network, using the real-time monitoring data to reflect the movement of the electric toothbrush head, with the base being used for placing and charging the electric toothbrush.

[0027] Sensors and other devices in the electric toothbrush enable real-time monitoring of the brush head's movement during the user's brushing process, thereby generating real-time monitoring data. The specific content and format of this real-time monitoring data can be flexibly configured to meet actual usage requirements. For example, the real-time monitoring data can include real-time brush head pose data, real-time brush head pressure data, and so on, which is not specifically limited in this disclosure. The specific form of the electric toothbrush can be based on prior art embodiments, allowing for the acquisition of real-time monitoring data, which is not specifically limited in this disclosure.

[0028] In one example, the electric toothbrush may include sensors such as a linear accelerometer, a gyroscope, and a pressure sensor to monitor the movement of the electric toothbrush head.

[0029] Once the real-time monitoring data from the electric toothbrush has been received and processed, it can be transmitted to its associated base station via a wireless communication network. The specific form of the wireless communication network can be flexibly configured according to actual usage requirements. For example, it could be a Bluetooth communication network, a Wi-Fi network, a cellular mobile communication network, etc., which is not specifically limited in this disclosure.

[0030] One possible implementation envisages a low-power Bluetooth communication network for the wireless communication network.

[0031] Preferably, the wireless communication network can be set up as a low-power Bluetooth communication network to reduce the operating energy consumption of the electric toothbrush and its base and to improve the battery life of the electric toothbrush.

[0032] Step S12: Determine the prompt information displayed on the base according to the real-time monitoring data, using the prompt information to display the cleanliness level assigned to each dental area of ​​the target user.

[0033] After the base unit receives real-time monitoring data from the electric toothbrush, a data analysis can be performed to determine the cleaning status of each area of ​​the target user's teeth and display corresponding prompts on the base unit. The tooth area can be a predefined region, subdivided according to the anatomical structure of human teeth and the contact between the brush head and teeth, etc. The specific subdivision of the tooth area can be flexibly adjusted according to actual usage requirements, which is not specifically limited in this disclosure.

[0034] In one possible implementation, the dental area is intended to include an upper left area of ​​the oral cavity, a lower left area of ​​the oral cavity, an upper right area of ​​the oral cavity, and a lower right area of ​​the oral cavity.

[0035] In particular, the target user's oral cavity can be divided into four main areas, namely the upper left area of ​​the oral cavity, the lower left area of ​​the oral cavity, the upper right area of ​​the oral cavity, and the lower right area of ​​the oral cavity.

[0036] Fig. Figure 2 shows a schematic representation of a tooth region according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As in Fig. As shown in Figure 2, the upper left area 201 of the oral cavity can include the left central incisors of the maxilla, the left lateral incisors of the maxilla, the left canines (dog teeth) of the maxilla, the left first premolars of the maxilla, the left second premolars of the maxilla, the left first molars of the maxilla, and the left second molars of the maxilla.

[0037] The lower left area 202 of the oral cavity may include the left central incisors of the mandible, the left lateral incisors of the mandible, the left canines (dog teeth) of the mandible, the left first premolars of the mandible, the left second premolars of the mandible, the left first molars of the mandible and the left second molars of the mandible.

[0038] The upper right area 203 of the oral cavity may include the right central incisors of the maxilla, the right lateral incisors of the maxilla, the right canines (dog teeth) of the maxilla, the right first premolars of the maxilla, the right second premolars of the maxilla, the right first molars of the maxilla and the right second molars of the maxilla.

[0039] The lower right area 204 of the oral cavity may include the right central incisors of the mandible, the right lateral incisors of the mandible, the right canines (dog teeth) of the mandible, the right first premolars of the mandible, the right second premolars of the mandible, the right first molars of the mandible and the right second molars of the mandible.

[0040] The specific structure of the base can be flexibly adjusted according to actual usage requirements, which is not specifically limited in this disclosure. The specific content and form of the solicitation information can also be flexibly adjusted according to actual usage requirements, which is not specifically limited in this disclosure.

[0041] In one possible implementation, the base comprises a digital display panel, an LED light group, and a voice prompt module, the prompt information including both light display information and voice prompt information. The specific shape of the LED light group can be flexibly configured according to actual usage requirements. For example, the LED light group can be configured to emit at least green, red, and white lights and to flash at different frequencies, or the like, which is not specifically limited in this disclosure. The specific shape of the voice prompt module can be described in the prior art, which is not specifically limited in this disclosure.

[0042] Fig. Figure 3 shows a schematic representation of the structure of an electric toothbrush according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As in Fig. Figure 3 shows that the brush head of the electric toothbrush 101 is inserted into and connected to the base 102, the base 102 being used to place and charge the electric toothbrush 101, the base 102 comprising a digital display film 301, an LED light group 302 and a voice prompt module 303.

[0043] Fig. Figure 4 shows a schematic representation of a digital display film according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As in Fig. As shown in Figure 4, the digital display film comprises a display area 401, a display area 402, a display area 403, a display area 404 and a printout display area 405.

[0044] The base 102 allows the operating state of the LED light group 302 to be adjusted according to the real-time operating state of the electric toothbrush 101 and the real-time monitoring data, so that the corresponding area in the digital display film 301 lights up, thereby determining the corresponding light display information and simultaneously controlling the voice prompt information sent by the voice prompt module.

[0045] In one embodiment of the present invention, the method comprises the following steps: determining real-time monitoring data during a target user's tooth brushing using an electric toothbrush, and transmitting real-time monitoring data to a base associated with the electric toothbrush via a wireless communication network, wherein the real-time monitoring data is used to reflect the movement of the electric toothbrush head, the base being used for placing and charging the electric toothbrush, thereby real-time monitoring of the target user's tooth brushing process, providing data support for improving the user's oral health;Determining the prompt information displayed on the basis according to the real-time monitoring data, whereby the prompt information is used to display the cleanliness level assigned to each dental area of ​​the target user in order to guide the user to adjust brushing posture and brushing duration, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the oral cavity, which helps the user develop good brushing habits.

[0046] In one possible implementation, the real-time monitoring data includes real-time pose data of the brush head, with the prompt information including area prompt information to display the position of the brush head in the target user's oral cavity; determining the prompt information displayed based on the real-time monitoring data includes the following steps: determining a real-time tooth area associated with the brush head based on the real-time pose data; determining the area prompt information based on the real-time tooth area.

[0047] The real-time pose data of the brush head can be used to display the real-time position and poses of the brush head in the target user's oral cavity. The specific content and format of the real-time pose data can be flexibly adjusted according to actual usage requirements, which is not specifically limited in this disclosure.

[0048] Based on the real-time pose data, the corresponding real-time tooth area of ​​the brush head can be determined. This corresponding real-time tooth area can represent any of the aforementioned tooth areas.

[0049] Based on the corresponding real-time tooth area of ​​the brush head, appropriate prompt information for this real-time tooth area can be determined and displayed, so that the target user accurately understands which tooth area is currently being cleaned. The specific form of the prompt information and the specific form of the prompt information displayed on the device can be flexibly adjusted according to actual usage requirements, which is not specifically limited in this disclosure.

[0050] The aforementioned base 102 comprises a digital display sheet, an LED light group and a voice prompt module, the digital display sheet comprising a display area 401, a display area 402, a display area 403, a display area 404 and an expression display area 405 as examples.

[0051] Each display area in the digital display panel can be assigned to a dental area of ​​the target user. In particular, it is provided that display area 401 can be assigned to a lower right area of ​​the target user's oral cavity, display area 402 can be assigned to an upper right area of ​​the target user's oral cavity, display area 403 can be assigned to an upper left area of ​​the target user's oral cavity, and display area 404 can be assigned to a lower left area of ​​the target user's oral cavity.

[0052] Fig. Figure 5 shows a schematic representation of a solicitation notice according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As in Fig. 5 shown, if, according to the real-time pose data of the brush head, it is determined that the real-time dental area is the lower right area of ​​the oral cavity, the display area 401 of the digital display foil can be controlled by the LED light group through the base 102 to illuminate as appropriate area prompt information of the lower right area of ​​the oral cavity.

[0053] The process described above allows for precise display of the currently cleaned area of ​​the tooth, enabling the user to track their cleaning progress in real time. This helps avoid missed areas during brushing, improving the user's overall dental hygiene and helping them develop good brushing habits.

[0054] In one possible implementation, the real-time monitoring data includes cleaning duration data associated with the real-time tooth area after the brush head has left any real-time tooth area, with the prompt information including incompleteness prompt information or completion prompt information associated with each real-time tooth area, the incompleteness prompt information associated with any real-time tooth area being used to indicate that the real-time tooth area has not been cleaned, and the completion prompt information associated with any real-time tooth area being used to indicate that the real-time tooth area has been cleaned;Determining the prompt information displayed based on the real-time monitoring data comprises the following steps: determining the incompleteness prompt information assigned to the real-time tooth area if the cleaning duration data assigned to any real-time tooth area does not meet the first preset time range; determining the completion prompt information assigned to the real-time tooth area if the cleaning duration data assigned to any real-time tooth area does meet the first preset time range.

[0055] To ensure that teeth and bacteria in the oral cavity are thoroughly cleaned while preventing oral problems such as enamel wear and excessive gum irritation, it is necessary to monitor brushing time within an appropriate range. When the brush head leaves a given area of ​​the mouth, it can be determined that cleaning of that area is complete. At this point, an electric toothbrush can be used to determine the brushing time assigned to that area and transmit this data to the base station via the wireless communication network.

[0056] For any real-time dental area, the incompleteness prompt information associated with that area can be determined and displayed if the cleaning duration data associated with that area does not meet the first preset time range. The specific value of the first preset time range can be flexibly adjusted according to actual usage requirements, for example, to 30 seconds to 40 seconds, etc., which is not specifically limited in this disclosure. The specific form of the incompleteness prompt information can also be flexibly adjusted according to actual usage requirements, which is not specifically limited in this disclosure.

[0057] For any given real-time dental area, the completion prompt information associated with that area can be determined and displayed based on whether the cleaning duration data associated with that area meets the first preset time range. The specific format of the completion prompt information can be flexibly adjusted according to actual usage requirements, which is not specifically limited in this disclosure.

[0058] The process described above allows for precise display of the currently cleaned area of ​​the tooth, enabling the user to track their cleaning progress in real time. This helps avoid missed areas during brushing, improving the user's overall dental hygiene and helping them develop good brushing habits.

[0059] In one possible implementation, the prompt information includes prompt information of a contact surface to display a real-time contact surface between the brush head and the target user's teeth; where determining the prompt information displayed based on the real-time monitoring data includes the following steps: determining the contact surface prompt information based on the real-time pose data for any real-time tooth area.

[0060] For any given real-time dental area, the real-time contact area between the brush head and the target user's teeth can be determined and displayed based on the real-time pose data. The specific shape of the real-time contact area can be flexibly adjusted according to actual usage requirements, which is not specifically limited in this disclosure.

[0061] In one possible implementation, the real-time contact surface is intended to include a medial lateral surface of the tooth, an outer lateral surface of the tooth, and a chewing surface of the tooth.

[0062] For any given real-time contact surface, the contact surface prompt information associated with that real-time contact surface can be determined and displayed, allowing the current cleaning position of the target user to be accurately detected, thereby improving the cleanliness of the target user's teeth. The specific form of the contact surface prompt information can be flexibly adjusted according to actual usage requirements, which is not specifically limited in this disclosure.

[0063] The aforementioned base 102 comprises a digital display sheet, an LED light group and a voice prompt module, the digital display sheet comprising a display area 401, a display area 402, a display area 403, a display area 404 and an expression display area 405 as examples.

[0064] If, according to the real-time pose data of the brush head, the Base 102 determines that the real-time contact area is the medial lateral surface of the tooth, the light emission mode assigned to the LED light group can be controlled by the Base 102 as the first mode to use the contact area prompt information assigned to the medial lateral surface of the tooth; if, according to the real-time pose data of the brush head, the Base 102 determines that the real-time contact area is the occlusal surface of the tooth, the light emission mode assigned to the LED light group can be controlled by the Base 102 as the second mode to use the contact area prompt information assigned to the occlusal surface of the tooth;If, according to the real-time pose data of the brush head, the base 102 determines that the real-time contact area is the outer side surface of the tooth, the light emission mode associated with the LED light group can be controlled by the base 102 as a third mode to utilize the contact area prompt information associated with the outer side surface of the tooth. The specific form of the light emission mode can be flexibly set here according to the actual usage requirements. For example, it may be provided that the LED light group is in different light emission modes that blink at different frequencies, or the like, which is not specifically limited in this disclosure.

[0065] The process described above allows for the accurate display of the real-time contact area between the brush head and the target user's teeth, enabling the user to track their tooth cleaning progress in real time. This prevents missed areas during brushing, thus improving the user's overall dental hygiene.

[0066] In a possible implementation, it is envisaged that the area prompt information and the contact surface prompt information can also be automatically displayed and shown on a basis according to the preset mode, so that the target user can complete the tooth brushing process according to the instructions of the area prompt information and the contact surface prompt information.

[0067] The preset mode can include the order of the area prompt information and the contact surface prompt information, as well as the display duration of each area prompt and each contact surface prompt information. The specific content of the preset mode can be flexibly adjusted according to actual usage requirements, which is not specifically limited in this disclosure.

[0068] In one example, the area prompt information associated with the lower right area of ​​the oral cavity, the area prompt information associated with the upper right area of ​​the oral cavity, the area prompt information associated with the upper left area of ​​the oral cavity, and the area prompt information associated with the lower left area of ​​the oral cavity can be displayed sequentially on the base associated with the electric toothbrush, and the display of each area prompt information for 30 seconds is controlled.For any given area prompt information, the contact surface prompt information associated with the outer lateral surface of the tooth, the contact surface prompt information associated with the occlusal surface of the tooth, and the contact surface prompt information associated with the medial lateral surface of the tooth are displayed sequentially, and the display of each contact surface prompt information is controlled for 10 seconds.

[0069] Through the above process, the target user's tooth brushing process can be guided through a preset mode, thereby supporting the target user in developing good tooth brushing habits while simultaneously improving the cleanliness of the target user's teeth.

[0070] In one possible implementation, the real-time monitoring data further includes total brushing time data, with the prompt information comprising first prompt information and second prompt information. The first prompt information is used to prompt the target user that cleaning of all teeth is complete, and the second prompt information is used to prompt the target user that uncleaned teeth remain. Determining the prompt information displayed based on the real-time monitoring data involves the following steps: completing cleaning in all tooth areas, and determining the first prompt information when the total brushing time meets the second preset time range.Incomplete cleaning in any area of ​​the teeth, or determining the second prompt information if the total brushing time data does not meet the second preset time range.

[0071] The total brushing time data can represent the total time the target user spends completing a brushing session. The specific method for determining the total brushing time data can be flexibly adjusted according to actual usage requirements. For example, the cumulative determination can be made using the cleaning duration data assigned to each tooth area, but also using the time intervals associated with switching the electric toothbrush on and off, or the like, which is not specifically limited in this disclosure.

[0072] Once cleaning is complete in all areas of the teeth and the total brushing time falls within the second preset time range, an initial prompt can be generated and displayed to inform the user that all teeth have been cleaned. The specific format of this initial prompt can be customized to meet actual usage requirements.

[0073] The aforementioned base 102 comprises a digital display sheet, an LED light group and a voice prompt module, the digital display sheet comprising a display area 401, a display area 402, a display area 403, a display area 404 and an expression display area 405 as examples.

[0074] Fig. Figure 6 shows a schematic representation of initial solicitation information according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As in Fig. As shown in Figure 6, all display areas of the digital display foil can be controlled by the LED light group through the base 102 to illuminate when cleaning is complete in all tooth areas and the total tooth brushing time data meets the second preset time range, so that the expression display area of ​​the digital display foil is shown as a smiling facial expression as the first prompt information.

[0075] If the cleaning of any tooth area is not completed, or if the total brushing time does not meet the second preset time range, the second prompt information can be determined and displayed to inform the target user that there are teeth that have not been cleaned. The specific form of the second prompt information can be flexibly adjusted according to actual usage requirements, which is not specifically limited in this disclosure.

[0076] Fig. Figure 7 shows a schematic representation of a second request information according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As in Fig. As shown in Figure 7, the display area 403 can be controlled by the LED light group through the base 102 to illuminate when cleaning in the upper left area of ​​the oral cavity is not completed, so that the expression display area of ​​the digital display foil is shown as a crying facial expression as a second prompt information.

[0077] Through the above process, the target user can understand the overall situation of the tooth brushing process and brush the uncleaned area of ​​the teeth according to the prompt information to improve the cleanliness of the target user's teeth, which helps the user develop good tooth brushing habits.

[0078] In one possible implementation, the real-time monitoring data includes real-time pressure data to display the contact pressure between the brush head and the target user's teeth, with the prompt information including third-party prompt information to encourage the target user to adjust brushing intensity; determining the prompt information displayed based on the real-time monitoring data includes the following steps: determining the third-party prompt information if the real-time pressure data does not meet the preset pressure range.

[0079] In particular, the real-time pressure data can be used to display the contact pressure between the brush head and the teeth of the target user, in order to reflect the brushing intensity of the target user.

[0080] If the real-time pressure data does not meet the preset pressure range, third-party prompt information can be determined and displayed to indicate to the target user that they should adjust the brushing pressure. The specific value of the preset pressure range can be flexibly adjusted according to actual usage requirements, for example, from 0.9 N (Newtons) to 1.4 N, etc., which is not specifically limited in this disclosure. The specific form of the third-party prompt information can also be flexibly adjusted according to actual usage requirements, which is not specifically limited in this disclosure.

[0081] The aforementioned base 102 comprises a digital display sheet, an LED light group and a voice prompt module, the digital display sheet comprising a display area 401, a display area 402, a display area 403, a display area 404 and an expression display area 405 as examples.

[0082] If the real-time print data does not meet the preset print range, the LED light group can be controlled by the Base 102 to emit and flash red light. Simultaneously, the voice prompt module is controlled as a third prompt to encourage the user to adjust their brushing intensity.

[0083] In one possible implementation, the procedure further includes the following steps: determining the number of usage times assigned to the brush head after the electric toothbrush is started; determining the fourth prompt information when the number of usage times reaches a preset maximum number, using the fourth prompt information to prompt the target user to change the brush head.

[0084] After repeated use, stains accumulate at the base of the bristles on an electric toothbrush's brush head, and the bristles become soft and deformed, reducing their cleaning effectiveness. Therefore, the brush head of an electric toothbrush needs to be replaced regularly. However, users typically cannot keep track of how often or for how long the brush head has been used. Even state-of-the-art electric toothbrushes lack the necessary data to actively remind users to replace the brush head in a timely manner.

[0085] Against this background, after the electric toothbrush is started, the number of usage times assigned to the brush head is determined and transmitted to the base via the wireless communication network. The specific way in which the number of usage times assigned to the brush head is determined by an electric toothbrush can be described in the prior art, which is not specifically limited in the present disclosure.

[0086] In one possible implementation, the electric toothbrush is provided to have an electronic counter, whereby the electronic counter can be used to count the number of starts of the electric toothbrush each time it is started, and the electric toothbrush can be used to determine the number of times used by the brush head according to the number of starts of the electric toothbrush.

[0087] When the number of times used reaches the preset maximum, the fourth prompt information can be determined and displayed to prompt the user to change the brush head. The specific form of this fourth prompt information can be flexibly adjusted according to actual usage requirements, which is not specifically limited in this disclosure.

[0088] The Base 102 described above includes a digital display panel, an LED light group, and a voice prompt module as examples. When the Base 102 determines that the number of usage times has reached the preset maximum, the LED light group can be controlled to flash red light and trigger an alarm, and the voice prompt module can be controlled to play voice prompt information about changing the brush head.

[0089] In one possible implementation, the process further includes the following steps: transmitting the real-time monitoring data to a cloud data management platform associated with the electric toothbrush based on the wireless communication network; determining a brushing report assigned to the target user based on the real-time monitoring data based on the cloud data management platform.

[0090] In particular, data transmission to the cloud data management platform associated with the electric toothbrush can occur via a wireless communication network. The specific form of the cloud data management platform can be flexibly configured according to actual usage requirements, which is not specifically limited in this disclosure. Preferably, the identity information of the target user and the software program associated with the device identification of the electric toothbrush can be linked via the cloud data management platform.

[0091] The wireless communication network enables the transmission of real-time monitoring data to the cloud data management platform. This platform can be used to store real-time monitoring data, allowing the target user to conveniently query and review it, and to generate a brushing report for each user based on that data. The brushing report allows for further tracking and analysis of the target users' brushing habits. The specific content of the brushing report can be flexibly configured according to actual usage requirements, and this is not specifically limited in this disclosure.

[0092] In one embodiment of the present invention, the method comprises the following steps: determining real-time monitoring data during a target user's tooth brushing using an electric toothbrush, and transmitting real-time monitoring data to a base associated with the electric toothbrush via a wireless communication network, wherein the real-time monitoring data is used to reflect the movement of the electric toothbrush head, the base being used for placing and charging the electric toothbrush, thereby real-time monitoring of the target user's tooth brushing process, providing data support for improving the user's oral health;Determining the prompt information displayed on the basis according to the real-time monitoring data, whereby the prompt information is used to display the cleanliness level assigned to each dental area of ​​the target user in order to guide the user to adjust brushing posture and brushing duration, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the oral cavity, which helps the user develop good brushing habits.
