| Abstract | Your mouth holds a surprising amount of information about current and future health, not just for teeth and gums, but also for serious conditions like neurological problems, heart disease, and cancer. This project will develop a new way to predict your risk for these diseases using a new handheld robotic device to carefully and quickly collect samples of plaque bacteria from hard-to-reach places in the mouth. Then, artificial intelligence will be used to analyze these samples. The system will au |
