3D Dental Scan with iTero: Fast
Why Choose iTero 3D Dental Scanning?
Step into the future of dentistry with the advanced iTero 3D digital dental impression technology. This innovative system captures high-precision 3D images of your teeth and intraoral structures directly from your mouth, completely eliminating the need for traditional, messy plaster molds. Patients can instantly view a realistic, three-dimensional replica of their smile on the screen right after the scan.
The highly detailed 3D digital impressions allow dentists to accurately diagnose dental concerns, evaluate existing fillings, and formulate precise treatment plans. This technology enhances efficiency across all dental procedures, including dental crowns, bridges, dental implants, removable dentures, as well as traditional braces and Invisalign clear aligners.
✨ A Game-Changer for Orthodontic Patients: The iTero scanner features an advanced outcome simulator that creates a 3D visualization of your expected post-treatment smile in less than 10 minutes, making it easier to understand your treatment plan and confidently make your decision.
7 Benefits of iTero 3D Dental Scanning Over Traditional Molds
- Permanent Digital Records: Stored securely as digital files, erasing any risks of broken or lost physical stone models.
- Fast and Time-Saving: Minimizes chair time and accelerates the production of custom dental work by sending files directly to the lab.
- Exceptional Precision: Captures intricate contours of teeth and soft tissues with high clinical accuracy.
- Enhanced Comfort: Eliminates gooey impression materials, preventing gag reflexes or discomfort for patients sensitive to dental powders.
- Optimized Treatment Outcomes: Promotes seamless digital collaboration between the dentist and the dental laboratory.
- Pre-Treatment Simulators: Allows patients to view a realistic preview of their simulated results before fabrication begins.
- Precise-Fit Restorations: Yields a significantly better and tighter marginal fit for dental crowns and prosthetics.
Understanding the Difference: 3D Dental Scan vs. 3D Dental X-ray
While both systems deliver advanced 3D diagnostics, they serve entirely distinct purposes in dental care:
| Comparison | 3D Dental Scan (Intraoral) | 3D Dental X-ray (CBCT) |
|---|---|---|
| Radiation | Zero Radiation (Uses high-speed optical scanning technology) | Uses low-dose X-ray radiation, within international safety standards |
| Captured Area | Records the visible outer surfaces of teeth and gums from inside the mouth. | Captures deep internal structures, jawbone density, and nerve pathways externally. |
| Primary Use | Replaces messy molds, tracks teeth alignment, and creates prosthetics. | Essential for dental implant planning, evaluating wisdom teeth, and jaw bone structures. |
