iTero™ Digital Scanner – Bringing Your Invisalign Treatment to Life
You know how much Cory Liss Orthodontics raves about Invisalign, and Invisalign Teen, with its ability to straighten crooked teeth easily, painlessly, and almost invisibly. Invisalign’s unique system, using a series of clear, bracketless aligners, which gently move teeth without the use of wires and elastics, is a great display of technological advancement – which is made possible by the use of the iTero™ Digital Scanner.
The iTero™ Digital Scanner is a perfect example of how technology is being used to increase patient comfort and convenience, and improve orthodontic case results. Utilizing laser and optical scanning to digitally capture the surfaces and contours of teeth and gum structure – this compact devise provides amazing detail and eliminates the need to take traditional impressions of teeth. Digital images are captured by a hand-held photo wand that records 100,000 points of light, 50 microns apart, to create perfectly focused images of your teeth. Invisalign treatment that utilizes the iTero™ Digital Scanner reports seven times less ill-fitting aligners – meaning treatment time is decreased and overall treatment success is increased.
Benefits of the iTero™ Scanner includes:
- Comfort: The digital scanner is less invasive and more comfortable than traditional impressions
- Accuracy: Impression distortion is not a factor when using the iTero Scanner – with the exact contours of your teeth being captured
- Efficiency: The use of the iTero Scanner means less time spent in the chair having messy impressions taken
- Custom Orthodontic Care: iTero’s strength in capturing minute details of anatomy means that each patient’s case is highly customized to meet their unique treatment needs
- Simulated Outcome: Imagine the confidence in knowing how your treatment is going to evolve before you commit to treatment. That’s what the iTero™ Digital Scanner provides patients – a simulated outcome ahead of time
- Advanced Technology: Orthodontic treatment has never been easier, faster, or more customized thanks to the advances in technology. More attention is being given to patient comfort and convenience – and that has never been more demonstrated than with the iTero Scanner.
