iTero Scanner
What is the iTero Scanner?
The iTero Scanner is a state-of-the-art digital scanning system that revolutionizes the way we capture dental impressions. Unlike traditional methods that require uncomfortable trays and messy putty, the iTero Scanner offers a quick, accurate, and comfortable alternative for patients.
How Does the iTero Scanner Work?
The iTero Scanner uses advanced optical and laser technology to create a highly detailed 3D digital model of your teeth and gums. The process is simple and non-invasive:
- Preparation: Our dental professional will gently move the iTero wand around your mouth. The wand is compact, ergonomically designed, and easily fits into your mouth without causing discomfort.
- Scanning: As the wand is moved, it captures thousands of images per second, instantly processing them into a precise 3D digital model. This model is displayed in real-time on a screen, allowing both you and your dentist to see the detailed scan immediately.
- Review and Planning: The digital model can be used to diagnose issues, plan treatments, and even simulate potential outcomes. This means you can visualize the expected results of procedures like Invisalign, crowns, bridges, and more before they even begin.
