We all can remember the amazing technology, (transporting from here to there & vaporizing monsters), as well as the magic medicine practiced on the starship Enterprise, (brain surgery and heart repairs with a hand held device). Well now we may be seeing the start of some of this magic occurring now, reports Danbury CT dentist Jay M. Marks, DMD. CONTINUE --->
Fibbing through your teeth has some new meanings now. Your dentist may soon be able to tell if you gave any white lies about such activities as what and how much you eat or drink (including booze), if you smoke, if and when you brush and floss your teeth, how many times you chew your food etc. Scientists at a University in Taiwan have invented a sensor that can be placed in you teeth, which will snitch on you to your physician or dentist. It can also be helpful in tracking grinding & clenching one’s teeth, which can lead to painful headaches and TMJ jaw joint pain. We can see how this science can help in prevention of cavities, gum diseases, loss of teeth, dental pain etc.
The invention contains a computer chip with a Wi Fi connection. The data can be sent to a cell phone (yours or your doctor’s). Dr. Marks reports that the device has been 94% accurate. This device can also be placed in braces and dentures.
Since the mouth is part of your body, there is a potential for it to diagnose many other health issues. There has been no talk of listening to conversations, or taking pictures. Dr. Marks advises you be careful if someone looks in you mouth, and then says “testing, 1..2..3.. testing, 1..2..3..”
