ITero Intraoral Scanner

iTero Scanners produce quick, colorized images to improve patient acceptance, streamline workflow, and speed up treatments.

Dentistry has never been at a more exciting time when it comes to the rise of technology to help service the needs of the patient. One of the best technological developments is the iTero digital scanner.

iTero enables doctors to take a 3D digital scan of a patient’s teeth and bite so adjustments can be made digitally for the use of several important dental procedures. Not only is this process far more comfortable than the old putty based impressions, but it’s faster and can offer a superior clinical endpoint.

With the use of a small, handheld scanner, a dentist scans your teeth and makes sure to capture every angle possible. Once completed, the images are sent to the computer and rendered to create the composite image, which combines all angles to create a 3D model of your teeth.Once the image has loaded, doctors can use this to create everything from an Invisalign mold to crowns, bridges and full tooth implants.
