Abstract: A dental appliance including a dielectric substrate with one or more electric areas having one or more integrated circuits, one or more electric lines, and optionally one or more shielding lines. The dental appliance further includes one or more ground areas including one or more ground pads, one or more sensing areas including one or more sensing pads, and optionally one or more shielding pads. The dental appliance is configured to monitor dental contact, dental forces, and/or for detecting teeth clenching and/or grinding.

Abstract: The invention relates to devices, systems and methods exploiting capacitive means for monitoring and analysing teeth-related parameters in a subject, such as the dental occlusion profile and/or the load/force applied upon clenching. The device comprises a body such as a bite fork or bite splint, capacitive sensor(s) incorporated within a soft substrate reversibly deformable once bitten by a subject and a micro-controller unit. The teeth contact points and forces applied upon occlusion are measured via the sensors, delivered to and re-elaborated by the micro-controller unit and possibly sent and visualized in a graphical/numerical fashion on e.g. a display screen.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for producing a stretchable conductor and/or electrical connection including providing a stretchable substrate, a liquid metal, a conductive metal and an adhesion material in a same evaporator chamber; depositing the liquid metal; depositing the adhesion material; depositing the conductive metal; wherein the liquid metal, the conductive metal and the adhesion material are deposited by evaporation; and the deposition by evaporation is made in vacuum.
