Zusammenfassung:A power toothbrush (10) is disclosed comprising a motor (12) for driving a brush head (15) of the power toothbrush and a controller (20) responsive to an operating mode selection signal and arranged to control the motor. The controller comprises a timer (22) for timing a total duration of a brushing session of the electric toothbrush and adapted to calculate, in a feedback mode of operation, an average total duration of a brushing session based on the stored number of previous brushing sessions; a target value is defined based on the calculated average total duration, and when its duration reaches the target value, a sensory output is caused to be generated during the brushing session to encourage the user to continue brushing. A method of evaluating brushing session data generated by such an electric toothbrush, a computer program product for implementing such a method, an electronic device adapted to implement such a method and an oral hygiene kit are also disclosed. 公开了一种电动牙刷(10),包括马达(12)和控制器(20),该马达(12)用于
