iTero®

Escape the messiness of traditional impressions with iTero®. This advanced scanner brings dental care into the digital age, ensuring precise and comfortable impressions.

What Is an iTero® Scanner?

An iTero® scanner is a type of intraoral scanner used in dentistry to create digital impressions of a patient's teeth and oral tissues. It is a handheld device with advanced imaging technology that captures detailed 3D images of the patient's mouth.

What Is the iTero® Scanner Used for?

The iTero® scanner has a variety of applications in dentistry. It's particularly valuable for:

  • Clear Aligner Treatment: The 3D scan allows dentists to create precise, custom-fit clear aligners for straighter teeth.
  • Restorative Dentistry: Crowns, bridges, and dental implants can be designed and manufactured more accurately using digital impressions.
  • Dental Diagnostics and Treatment Planning: The detailed 3D image helps dentists visualize your teeth and gums, leading to better diagnosis and treatment plans.

How Does the iTero® Scanner Work?

The iTero® scanner emits a harmless light onto the teeth and surrounding tissues. As the scanner moves around the mouth, it captures multiple images, which are then stitched together to create an accurate 3D model of the patient's mouth.

What Are the Benefits of an iTero® Scanner?

The iTero® scanner offers several advantages over traditional methods:  

  • Comfort: No more gagging on impression material! The scanner is quick and painless.
  • Accuracy: Digital impressions are highly accurate, leading to better-fitting restorations and treatment outcomes.
  • Speed: The scanning process takes just minutes, compared to the time needed for traditional impressions to set.
  • Convenience: Digital scans can be easily stored and shared electronically.
  • Visualization: The 3D image allows you to see your teeth and discuss treatment options with your dentist more clearly.
