Having to get dental impressions is what most people dread about orthodontic treatment, but not anymore! Thanks to the iTero Element Scanner, orthodontists are putting down the sticky putty and utilizing a scanning process that is simple, quick, and precise. The digital scanner creates a 3D model of your smile. Orthodontists now have this innovative technology that provides a no-mess, no-hassle impressions option for every type of braces.
How Does the iTero Digital Scanner Work?

These digital scans are simple to use and produce the digital images in real time, giving your orthodontist quick results to develop your treatment plan.
The iTero Element Scanner is used to determine treatment needs for all types of braces, including Invisalign clear aligners. In fact, using this 3D scanning technology, the Invisalign Outcome Simulator can show you what your smile will look like following Invisalign treatment.
