1. A toothbrushing monitoring system, comprising:
a plurality of transceivers configured to output packets of motion data generated by a plurality of motion sensors that are configured to generate the motion data in response to detection of motion of respective toothbrushes with which each of the plurality of motion sensors are associated; and
a remote processing system configured to:
receive, at overlapping periods of time and in variable order, the packets of the motion data outputted by the plurality of transceivers;
identify subsets of the received packets of the motion data that are associated with respective same brushing activities associated with each of the respective toothbrushes, wherein each same brushing activity is a single brushing session performed with a single toothbrush;
arrange the received packets of the motion data of each subset in proper order; and
process the received packets of the motion data of each subset to generate brushing data for said each same brushing activity.
