    Publication number: 20090306506
    Abstract: A device (10) for acquiring data in the mouth of a patient, wherein the device (10) comprises an ultrasound sensor (20) and a support structure. The ultrasound sensor (20) is stored by means of the support structure when not in use and contains ultrasound deflection means (12) which are movable. A coupling body (21) is provided, which is arranged between the ultrasound deflection means (12) and a tooth area (1, 2, 3) or remaining tooth area to be swept over Excitation signals (14) are sent to the ultrasound sensor (20) and the ultrasound deflection means (12) are moved in order to thus produce an ultrasonic wave which sweeps over at least part of the tooth area (1, 2, 3) or remaining tooth area.
