Method and system for measuring periodontal pocket depth

A system for measuring a depth of a periodontal pocket, the system comprising:

• a frame configured to be worn by a user;
• at least one camera, attached to the frame, configured to capture at least one 2D image of an intraoral target area, the at least one 2D image comprising a representation of at least:
• a part of the tooth,
• a gingiva margin defined by a section of the gingiva adjacent to the at least a part of the tooth, and
• a probe tip when the probe tip is inserted into a periodontal pocket;
• and
• a processor configured to receive the captured at least one 2D image and determine, in relation to the gingiva margin, an insertion length of the probe tip in the periodontal pocket by applying an image processing technique on information obtained about the probe tip in the captured at least one 2D image, wherein the determined insertion length represents a depth of the periodontal pocket.
