Abstract: A housing containing an electrical energy source is coupled between a first end cap comprising a control and an interstitial member comprising an LED selectively electrically couplable to the electrical energy source by the control, and a second end cap coupled to the interstitial member comprises an optical filtering component in optical alignment with light emitted by the LED. At least a portion of an exterior of at least one of the housing, the first end cap, the interstitial member, and the second end cap may have a cross-sectional shape that is not substantially circular. The end caps, housing, interstitial member, and optical filtering component may each be sealingly interconnected. A method of using the apparatus may comprise directing light emitted by the apparatus into a human oral cavity without inserting the apparatus into the human oral cavity.

Abstract: The present disclosure introduces an optical component attachable to a mobile communications device and operable to spectrally filter images taken by a camera of the mobile device. Systems introduced herein include the optical component, the mobile device, and an illumination source for directing light at a specific wavelength/intensity into a human mouth, such that images taken by the camera record human mouth tissue responses to the light for cancer screening purposes. Such cancer screening may also utilize a database of other response images from other patients, which may be transmitted to the database by the mobile device and/or other mobile devices.

Abstract: A composition for mixing with water for use as an oral rinse, comprising monobasic sodium phosphate, dibasic sodium phosphate, sodium chloride, and calcium chloride.

Abstract: Provided is method of detecting a dermatological condition or abnormality associated with skin. In one embodiment, the method includes activating a dermatological examination device and directing the light emitted by the activated examination device onto human skin by orienting the activated examination device relative to the skin without touching the human with the device.
