Our skilled dentist and team use the iTero® digital scanner to capture images of your mouth and create digital impressions. This state-of-the-art imaging technology allows us to view 3D images of the inside of your mouth, including your teeth and supporting oral structures. This makes it easier for us to diagnose developing problems and provide you with more effective treatments.
When you receive a digital scan, our dentist or hygiene team will pass a small wand over your teeth. As this wand moves through your mouth the images will be captured and processed simultaneously to provide and immediate, complete and highly accurate images of your mouth. Captured images are saved automatically every few seconds, preventing the need for you to sit through a second scan, and the scanning process can be stopped and restarted easily to ensure your comfort.
The iTero scanner captures up to 20 images per second in full color, helping our dentist and team distinguish between healthy and diseased tissue. This also allows us to create accurate digital models from which oral appliances and restorations can be designed. These appliances and restorations are custom designed to give you the most precise, effective and comfortable treatment possible. The scanning technology used in this process can even simulate your treatment outcome so you can see what your final result should look like!
