Abstract:
Disclosed is a method, user interface and system for detecting and monitoring development of a dental condition. In particular the invention relates to detecting and monitoring such a development by comparing digital 3D representations of the patient's set of teeth recorded at a first and a second point in time.

Claim (Index 24):
A method for detecting development in gingival recession at a tooth between a first and a second point in time, wherein the method comprises:\n obtaining a first digital 3D representation of the patient's set of teeth recorded at the first point in time; obtaining a second digital 3D representation of the patient's set of teeth recorded at the second point in time; generating a first and a second 3D model of the tooth by segmentation of the corresponding parts of the first and second digital 3D representations, respectively; determining a local transformation which aligns first and second 3D tooth models; arranging the digital 3D representations according to the determined local transformation such that the tooth portions of the sections are aligned; detecting a development in the gingival recession between the first and the second point in time by comparing the gingival boundaries in the first and second digital 3D representations arranged according to the determined local transformation.
