Certain exemplary ultrasound probe method and/or apparatus embodiments are described, which can be used for 2D and/or 3D imaging soft tissue in an intra oral cavity.

Ultrasonic probe for intraoral soft tissue imaging

At least one embodiment of an ultrasonic periodontal probe, the ultrasonic periodontal probe comprising a grip portion having a longitudinal axis, a support member comprising a part having a longitudinal axis different from the longitudinal axis of the grip portion, and an ultrasonic device fastened to the grip portion via the support member, wherein the ultrasonic device is configured for emitting ultrasound signals within at least two emitting cones and for receiving corresponding echoed ultrasound signals, the at least two emitting cones extending in opposite directions with regard to a plane comprising the longitudinal axis of the grip portion.

Ultrasonic periodontal probe

This invention concerns an ultrasonic dental imaging probe (), typically comprising several transducers () arranged to operate as a transmitter and a receiver, and in particular arranged to transmit ultrasonic waves at a frequency of at least 10 MHz, and optionally several transducers () arranged to operate as a transmitter and a receiver and arranged to transmit ultrasonic waves at a frequency of less than 4 MHz. The transducers are mounted on a flexible support (), secured to a rigid frame () typically in a 'U' shape. The invention also concerns a device comprising one such probe.

Ultrasound probe and device for 3D imaging of the jaw

A probe including a body having a main chamber receiving an assembly for transmitting and receiving an ultrasonic wave. The assembly is mounted on a frame driven in reciprocating motion by a driving motor. The chamber is closed by a probe tip having a slot made of a liquid impermeable solid element which is permeable to the acoustic wave transmitted by the acoustic transducer and toward the acoustic transducer. A reciprocating motion of the acoustic transducer is a translating movement parallel to the slot such that the ultrasonic beam is normal at the slot.
