What is an Itero scan?

Aktualisiert: 14. Aug. 2023

AN ITERO SCAN ALLOWS YOU TO SEE YOUR RESULTS BEFORE YOU START INVISALIGN TREATMENT!


I believe you should have as much information about your desired treatment as possible, before you make a final decision! That is why I invested in an Itero scanner to allow my patients to see a sneek peek into their potential results for Invisalign treatment before they start. I also use this cutting-edge digital impression system to predict the results of dental treatments such as composite bonding , dental crowns, and dental bridges.

My iTero Scan appointments are also completely free in Northwich!






How does it work?



The iTero Scanner captures hundreds of images per second to create a digital model of your teeth. It uses an advanced intra-oral camera and digital software to generate your smile prediction.


Does it hurt?

No. The camera on the end of the iTero scanner wand is gently passed across all surfaces of your teeth until the software has captured enough detail. Sometimes, capturing images of the the very back teeth can be a bit fiddly but it is in no way painful. The scanner takes pictures just like any other camera.


Does the iTero scanner use radiation?

iTero scanners do not use any kind of radiation.They are safe for use during pregnancy.



BENEFITS OF USING AN ITERO SCANNER

  • Painless and comfortable, especially beneficial for those who have a strong gag reflex

  • Quick impression taking – scanning a full arch of teeth takes only 1 minute to complete
