Abstract
Disclosed embodiments integrate a camera into an intraoral mirror. Integrating a camera into an intraoral mirror provides an efficient way to record and display what is visible to the healthcare provider in the mirror.
Claims20
A method for retrieving data from a dental instrument using a remote computational device, comprising:
- (a) connecting the remote computational device to a network published by the dental instrument such that the dental instrument is acting as a router and the remote computational device connects to the router, the dental instrument comprising an intraoral mirror;
- (b) sending an HTTP request to the dental instrument from an application stored in a memory of the remote computational device;
- and
- (c) receiving a response to the HTTP request from an HTTP server implemented in the dental instrument, the response comprising data from the dental instrument.

A method for sending data from a dental instrument to a remote computational device, comprising:
- (a) publishing a network from the dental instrument such that the dental instrument is acting as a router, the dental instrument comprising an intraoral mirror;
- (b) connecting the remote computational device to the network;
- (c) receiving an HTTP request from an application stored in a memory of the remote computational device;
- and
- (d) sending a response to the HTTP request from an HTTP server implemented in the dental instrument, the response comprising data from the dental instrument.
2 more elements
A dental instrument, comprising:
- an intraoral mirror;
- a memory storing executable code;
- and
- a processor configured to execute the executable code to implement an HTTP server configured to:
- (i) publish a network from the dental instrument such that the dental instrument is acting as a router, the dental instrument comprising an intraoral mirror,
- (ii) connect a remote computational device to the network,
- (iii) receive an HTTP request from an application stored in a memory of the remote computational device, and
- (iv) send a response to the HTTP request from an HTTP server implemented in the dental instrument, the response comprising data from the dental instrument.
