Abstract
Maintaining good oral hygiene is crucial for a healthy life, and properly tooth brushing stands out as a fundamental defense against dental issues. Unfortunately, many people do not brush their teeth properly and there is very limited technology available to assist them in compliance with the standard toothbrushing procedure. In the realm of technological innovation, augmented reality stands out as a powerful tool with boundless possibilities. Leveraging the potential of this transformative technology, we aim to utilize mirrors as a unique medium to design a captivating 3D projected model of teeth. This innovative approach aims to inspire and motivate users to elevate their brushing habits, ultimately leading to optimal oral health.
