Oral health care

An oral care device comprising a control system for controlling at least one operating parameter of the oral care device, the control system comprising:

• an input interface adapted to obtain routine data describing at lease one of motion and position of the oral care device during performance of an oral health care routine by a user of the oral care device, and plaque data describing measurements of plaque at a plurality of locations in the oral cavity of the user;
• a processor configured to analyze the routine data and the plaque data to determine one or more oral routine properties;
• and
• and output interface adapted to generate, based on the oral care properties, a control signal for controlling at least one operating parameter of the oral care device;
• wherein the at least one operating parameter value comprises at least one of:
• an operating power, a motion direction;
• and an operating angle.
