Why We Use the iTero Intraoral Scanner

Love Yourself, Love Your Smile

itero intraoral scanner
  • Dr. Monica Madan
  • September 11, 2024

The iTero intraoral scanner is a digital scanning device that allows us to capture highly accurate 3D images of your teeth and gums. This nifty piece of technology has revolutionized the way we approach treatment planning. With the iTero scanner, we can create detailed digital models of your mouth with the wave of a wand — literally! Gone are the days of those goopy, uncomfortable impressions. If you’ve ever wondered why we orthodontists are so excited about digital dentistry, you’re about to find out. 

Why We Use the iTero Intraoral Scanner

The iTero intraoral scanner is a tiny high-tech camera that takes pictures of your teeth and stitches them together to create a complete, detailed 3D model of your mouth — and it does this in minutes. The iTero screen shows the 3D model in real-time, which means you get a front-row seat viewing of your own mouth. With astonishing detail and clarity, you can see exactly what your teeth look like and how they fit together, which makes understanding your treatment plan much easier. 

Benefits of the iTero Intraoral Scanner

Accuracy

The scanner provides incredibly accurate digital impressions, reducing the risk of errors in creating appliances like Invisalign aligners or retainers. This means better-fitting appliances and more effective treatments.

Comfort

No more biting down on messy, uncomfortable impression materials and trying to “breathe through your nose while you wiggle your toes.” The iTero scanner is non-invasive and quick, making the experience much more pleasant for patients and techs!

Efficiency

Digital impressions are immediately available for review and can be sent instantly to labs, speeding up the process of creating custom orthodontic devices. This means faster treatment times and fewer office visits.

More Detail

The real-time 3D images allow for better treatment planning and more precise adjustments throughout the treatment process. Patients can see simulations of how their teeth will move over time, which is both reassuring and motivating.

Eco-Friendly

3D scanning eliminates the need for physical impression materials and plaster models which reduces waste and is a more sustainable modeling option.

Compared to old dental casting methods, the iTero scanner represents a significant advancement in dental care, offering a faster, more comfortable, and more accurate alternative to traditional models.

Clinician using iTero intraoral scannerHow Does the iTero Intraoral Scanner Work

The iTero scanner is a dental technology tool used primarily for capturing detailed 3D images of a patient’s teeth and gums. It’s widely used in orthodontics and restorative dentistry and is phenomenal for creating digital impressions when designing Invisalign treatments. 

How the iTero Scanner Works 

The iTero scanner uses a handheld wand with a camera and light source. The technician moves this wand around the patient’s mouth in a pattern to scan the entire area.

The iTero scanner captures thousands of images per second as the wand is moved, ensuring that every surface is scanned with high precision.

The captured images are processed in real-time by the scanner’s software to create a highly detailed 3D digital model of the patient’s dental anatomy. 

The dentist can see the 3D model developing on the screen as the scanning occurs, allowing for adjustments to ensure complete coverage.

The digital model can be easily integrated with other dental software systems to design orthodontic appliances, crowns, bridges, and more.

The 3D digital model is highly accurate, often more so than traditional physical impressions, which can be prone to errors like air bubbles or distortion. Once created, the digital models can be used to plan treatments and allow your orthodontist to simulate outcomes to show you your options. Orthodontists can also use the scans to track changes over time, monitor the progress of treatments, and make changes as necessary easily and accurately.

No one has scheduled my appointment better than Anthony and Dr. Madden is the best doctor!!
l i z z i e
Dr Monica and her staff are just the absolute best. Office is beautiful and clean. Staff is great and kind and have never had any issues whatsoever. The work that she and her staff members... do is just 10/10. They are also so welcoming and genuinely kind. Dr Monica and even members of her staff like Anthony will have genuine conversations with you and make you feel the most comfortable. Even during a treatment that many (including myself) are not fond of. (Anything dental related can be scary but they truly put you at peace.) I’m so happy that I made the decision to proceed with treatment here. All questions are always answered. Concerns dealt with. And treatment is impeccable. The results I already have solidify why I’m so happy with my decision to get work done here.read more

Very friendly staff & very accommoding. They are very understanding. Everyone here is super welcoming and very nice! Can't wait to see my next appointment.
nathalie K.
I highly recommend Dr Madan at BHO for all of your orthodontic needs. Between her warm personality, knowledge and skill you will have to look no further.This office constantly has amazing... offers and specials that make their treatment pricing EXTREMELY competitive. Trust me, as I’ve gotten consults from just about every provider in town. I am seeing unbelievable results with my Invisalign treatment only a few weeks in. Dr Madan was the obvious choice, as she made this process as minimally invasive as possible. I have been to multiple of her offices and they all are pristine. I would recommend to anyone in the LA area looking for the best provider for their orthodontist!read more

So far I am having an amazing experience with Dr Madan and BHO. I’ve consulted with many Orthos over the years for Invisalign. Almost all said I would have to extract a tooth to solve over... crowding issue on bottom teeth. Within literally 5 weeks of Invisalign, my bottom teeth are almost completely straightened out already. I cannot believe how fast this treatment is working. Not to mention, I had tradition braces in the past and my teeth fully reverted to their original form. It took over 4 years to correct my crowding with braces the first time, back in the day.How incredible Dr Madan and her staff is , along with her immaculate offices deserves its own second review. 10/10 experience so far highly recommend them!read more
