This disclosure relates to wireless electronics designed for use within the oral cavity to measure biological or chemical variables, including pH or analyte concentrations, and transmit the measurements. More particularly, the disclosure relates to a wearable intraoral sensor comprising sensing electronics arranged within a flexible circuit mounted onto a molar band, a wireless transmission unit coupled to the sensing electronics and configured to wirelessly transmit electrical data signals to a receiver outside of the oral cavity, and a power source operably coupled to the sensing electronics and wireless transmission unit. The wearable intraoral sensor can be installed around a tooth and continually measure and wirelessly transmit measurement data for extended periods of time without user action. |
