ITERO® INTRAORAL SCANNER
Your Local Cosmetic Dentist Serving Bucks, Montgomery County & Philadelphia
Impressions are necessary for the fabrication of dental restorations, such as crowns, bridges, and dental implants. Our hand-held intra-oral scanner takes 3-dimensional digital video impressions with proven accuracy. Even the most challenging cases can be accurately scanned with our intra-oral scanner.
Another benefit to you is reduced time. When we send precise digital scans to our lab, your restorations require less preparation work and can be fabricated more quickly. This means you can have your restoration placed and be enjoying the results sooner than with traditional impression methods.
In the past, you may have experienced dental trays that were filled with a soft substance that hardened into an impression of your mouth and teeth. With the intra-oral scanner’s small hand-held wand, we can take accurate digital impressions quickly and easily, without tripping your gag reflex.
Even more, as we complete your scan, you will be able to view the impression on the monitor along with us. This allows you to see more precisely why we have recommended restoration for your oral health needs.
We look forward to seeing you again at your next appointment with us. We love to make a great impression.

WHO IS A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR THE ITERO INTRAORAL SCANNER?
WHAT HAPPENS DURING THE ITERO INTRAORAL SCANNER PROCESS?
We will use a small portable handheld device to begin the scan. The iTero Intraoral Scanner will then be guided over your teeth. The images of your teeth will begin to show on the machine’s screen itself. The scan takes about one or two minutes and provides us with clear, quality results. We can then discuss your results and what we have found when using the iTero Intraoral Scanner. You can have these scans performed at regular intervals throughout treatment or so that we can create a dental plan that fits your needs.
