How is the iTero scanner used for Invisalign?
The iTero scanner is a sophisticated intraoral imaging device. The iTero scanning technology is designed to be used directly inside the patient’s mouth, capturing high-resolution 3D images of the teeth, gums, and other oral structures. This approach replaces uncomfortable, traditional impression methods.
This technology enhances diagnostic capabilities, aids in treatment planning, and facilitates the creation of various dental restorations. Intraoral scanners allow for a more comfortable and efficient dental experience, revolutionizing the way digital impressions are obtained in modern dentistry.
In short, the iTero scanner is a game changer that makes dental and orthodontic treatments more successful. Additionally, this technology contributes to a smoother and more convenient experience. If you want to experience the difference for yourself, the experts at Koala® Center For Sleep & TMJ Disorders in El Paso provide iTero scanning services.
There are various differences between iTero scans and traditional dental impressions. iTero scanning services are performed with state-of-the-art technology that offers many advantages when compared to the traditional alternative.
For example, iTero technology minimizes the possibility of errors. In contrast, traditional impressions are susceptible to distortions and are generally less accurate. In addition, iTero scans are much more convenient and efficient than traditional impressions. This allows for more streamlined and comfortable appointments.
Another key difference between the two procedures is how quickly the images can be accessed. iTero scans create real-time digital images for orthodontists and patients to view. This expedites the entire treatment process.
In summary, there are various reasons why iTero scans are superior to traditional dental impressions, such as enhanced patient comfort, real-time images, and accurate results. As the team at Koala® Center For Sleep & TMJ Disorders values positive patient experiences, we offer digital dental scans with iTero technology.
iTero scans are recommended for patients who want to undergo orthodontic or dental treatment. This advanced digital scanning technology is most recommended for individuals interested in orthodontic interventions like Invisalign; however, it can be used for restorative dentistry purposes as well. iTero scans provide detailed 3D images that assist providers in treatment planning.
Furthermore, as iTero scans do not use radiation, they are extremely safe. Even pregnant individuals can safely receive an iTero scan. Various concerns can be identified with the help of iTero technology, including tooth erosion and bite problems. iTero scans are safe for children and offer a streamlined experience.
In summary, patients with a range of orthodontic and dental needs, from addressing misalignments to restoring damaged teeth, can benefit from the efficiency, comfort, and accuracy that iTero scans offer. This technology is versatile and contributes to improved treatment outcomes and a positive experience for patients with a variety of oral health conditions across all age groups.
iTero scans are performed as part of the Invisalign treatment to ensure exceptional results and monitor the changes to the alignment of the teeth throughout the process. In addition, iTero technology can predict the movement of your teeth throughout treatment to enhance the success of orthodontic treatment.
During your consultation session with the orthodontist, an iTero scan will be performed so the provider can accurately visualize the present concerns and their severity. The iTero scan captures structures such as the teeth, gums, tooth roots, and other soft tissues. This makes it easier for the expert to map out the treatment strategy and provide you with an accurate estimate of how long the process will take.
As iTero scans provide real-time images, the provider will be able to show you the exact transformation that can be achieved through treatment, so you can understand exactly how the process will go. You’ll be able to get a glimpse at the expected outcome before beginning treatment. Overall, there are various ways in which iTero technology contributes to the success and efficiency of Invisalign treatment. For more information, call us today to book an appointment online.
