Speed, Accuracy & Comfort

We’re thrilled to offer iTero™ Digital Impressions at Smiles by Dr. R, bringing a more comfortable and precise experience to our patients. Say goodbye to messy, unpleasant putty impressions—iTero’s advanced scanning technology captures highly accurate digital impressions in minutes. This non-invasive process is especially beneficial for patients considering Invisalign® or clear aligners, ensuring precise treatment planning and a seamless orthodontic journey.

Benefits of Teeth Scanning

  • No More Messy Impressions – Say goodbye to the goopy, unpleasant putty impressions! iTero™ Digital Impressions provide a more comfortable experience without the aftertaste or discomfort of traditional methods.
  • Superior Accuracy & Cleanliness: The digital scan eliminates distortion from movement, removal, or disinfection. Plus, a single-use imaging shield ensures maximum hygiene for every patient.
  • Real-Time Visualization: Watch your digital impression come to life on-screen as your orthodontist scans, allowing for immediate adjustments and a precise, first-time fit.

How it works

The iTero™ handheld wand takes a digital, 3D image of your prepared teeth, stopping as needed. The wand is non-invasive and you can breathe and swallow as needed during the procedure. If you need to move or adjust, you can do so – the accuracy of the handheld wand is first-rate. Needing to “re-do” impressions is rare. Plus, you can look at the iTero™ 3D image on the screen in real-time as the orthodontist moves the wand!

Instead of shipping impressions to the lab to be scanned, the digital image of your teeth is sent electronically to the lab and is available in the Invisalign Clincheck system the very next day. This 3D model of your mouth can be used with all Invisalign services – including the Invisalign Outcome Simulator, which shows what your new smile might look like after treatment is completed.
