Common Questions
What is the iTero scanner?
The iTero is an advanced digital intraoral scanner that captures highly detailed 3D images of your teeth and gums using a small handheld wand. It creates a precise digital model of your mouth in minutes — replacing the traditional messy impression trays with a fast, comfortable experience.
How does digital scanning work?
We gently move the iTero wand around your mouth while it captures thousands of images per second. Software instantly stitches these into an accurate, full-color 3D model that appears on a screen in real time. There is no goopy material, no gagging, and no waiting.
What is iTero used for?
The iTero scanner is used for Invisalign treatment, designing crowns, bridges, and other restorations, planning implant restorations, and tracking changes in your teeth and gums over time. It is especially valuable for creating precise, comfortable-fitting aligners and restorations.
Is digital scanning more comfortable than traditional impressions?
Absolutely. Many patients dislike traditional impressions because of the bulky trays and putty-like material that can trigger a gag reflex. The iTero scanner eliminates all of that — it's simply a small wand that comfortably scans your teeth in a few minutes.
Can I see my Invisalign results before starting?
Yes. One of the most exciting features of the iTero scanner is its outcome simulator, which can show you a preview of how your smile may look after Invisalign treatment. It's a great way to visualize your results and feel confident before you begin.
