Oral care is important for maintaining and restoring oral function, and there is a need for development of educational tools for oral care. As a first step, we developed a prototype of tongue cleaning simulator that enables sensing and visualization of tongue care status. The goal of this simulator is to help teach tongue cleaning techniques for a variety of patient tongues.
