iTero® digital scanning is a cutting-edge technology used to generate three-dimensional representations of your teeth, gums and other oral structures. The unparalleled precision of this technology allows our dentists to capture detailed, full-color images at an impressive rate of 20 images per second, making it easy to distinguish between healthy and compromised tissues and provide you with the quality care you need.
The iTero scanner’s efficiency and accuracy stem from its innovative design, which includes a compact, handheld wand. This device glides effortlessly across the interior surfaces of the mouth, conducting a comprehensive scan without the need for physical impressions, which can be uncomfortable and time-consuming. The system processes the images in real-time, assembling them into a complete, highly accurate 3D model of the mouth. This instantaneous feedback is not only convenient but ensures that the digital model reflects the truest possible representation of the patient’s oral anatomy.
One of the greatest benefits of the iTero scanning system is its ability to project the outcomes of various treatment plans. By manipulating the digital model, our dentists can simulate the end results of orthodontic or restorative treatments, offering patients a glimpse into their future smile. This not only aids in treatment planning but also enhances patient engagement and satisfaction by setting realistic expectations for the treatment outcome.
The precision of iTero-generated models also facilitates the creation of dental appliances and restorations with superior fit and function. Whether designing aligners for orthodontic treatment, crowns for restorative procedures or any other dental appliance, the accuracy of iTero scans ensures that these custom-fitted solutions meet the exact needs of each individual patient.
