MUMBAI, India, Aug. 12 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641094075 A) filed by Dayananda Sagar College Of Dental Sciences on August 04, 2026, for Appliance-Integrated Muscle And Bite Monitoring System For Real-Time Orthodontic Functional Assessment.
Inventors include Dr. Anadha N Gujar; Dr. Hemanth M; Dr. Neha Patil; Dr. Shivaprasad Gaonkar; Dr. Prajwal Prabhu; Dr. Kavya B R; Dr. Dipasha Rao; and Dr. Dharini M.
The application for the patent was published on August 07, 2026, under issue no. 32/2026.
Abstract: The current invention is a monitoring system that integrates orthodontic appliances and is intended to assess neuromuscular and occlusal function in real time. To continually monitor bite-force distribution, mandibular loading patterns, and masticatory muscle activity during normal jaw function, the system integrates pressure sensors with orthodontic equipment. By enabling dynamic monitoring of occlusal activity, the gadget makes it possible to identify abnormalities, including muscle hyperactivation, parafunctional activity, and unilateral overload early on. Patient feedback and clinician-guided treatment modifications are made easier by data transmission to a processing unit. The innovation combines neuromuscular analysis with oral biomechanics to increase long-term functional stability, lower the likelihood of relapse, and improve treatment predictability.
