iTero™: Speed, Accurate, and Comfortable Dental Scanning
We are proud to introduce the iTero Digital Impressions system at Moss Wall Orthodontics. This cutting-edge technology replaces traditional, messy putty impressions with a more comfortable and accurate digital alternative. This innovation enhances the orthodontic experience, providing a smoother and more efficient process for our patients.
Why iTero is Ideal for Invisalign
The precision of dental impressions is crucial for those thinking about using Invisalign® aligners. The iTero system provides outstanding accuracy, comparable to the difference in clarity between HD and standard-definition TV. This high level of detail guarantees that your Invisalign treatment plan is specifically customized to your individual dental structure.
How the iTero Process Works
The iTero system uses a small, handheld scanner to create a detailed 3D image of your teeth and gums. Here’s how the process works:
Non-Invasive Scanning: The handheld wand captures a 3D image of your teeth and gums without any discomfort. You can breathe and swallow naturally during the scan.
Real-Time Visualization: As the orthodontist moves the wand, you can view the digital images on a screen in real time. This allows for immediate adjustments to ensure accuracy.
Quick Digital Transfer: Once the scan is complete, the digital impressions are sent electronically to the lab. This process is faster and more efficient than traditional methods.
Rapid Results: The digital files are integrated into the Invisalign ClinCheck system, providing a detailed 3D model of your mouth that can be ready for treatment planning the next day.
This streamlined approach not only improves comfort but also speeds up the planning process, ensuring that your treatment is both effective and timely.
