How It Works

Most restorations traditionally begin with a mold of your mouth, often involving messy impression materials. The iTero Digital Scanner eliminates this step entirely by capturing precise digital images with a handheld wand. These images appear instantly on a computer screen as detailed 3D models of your teeth, which our doctors review to ensure they meet exacting standards.
