How Digital Scanning Improves the Process for Invisalign

December 31, 2018

This piece of technology allows your dentist to capture a digital image of your teeth and the surrounding oral structures far more effectively than was once the case. The iTero Digital Scanner is especially valuable for patients getting Invisalign. Keep reading to learn more about how it works and how you can cash in on big savings when you choose Invisalign through Capital Smiles!

Numerous Benefits of the iTero Scanner

In order to create Invisalign clear aligners, we need to have an accurate representation of your teeth in order to plan which ones need to be repositioned and when. In the old days, your dentist may have had you bite down on a tray filled with wet gooey material to create a mold — but this process is inefficient, cumbersome, and can be difficult for patients with severe gag reflexes. Furthermore, it does not always capture the most accurate results. Far better is digital scanning with iTero.

The benefits of visiting a dentist who uses the iTero Digital Scanner for Invisalign include the following:

    • Provides a highly detailed digital image of your mouth in a matter of seconds
    • Far more comfortable for the patient than taking traditional molds with wet gooey material
    • Can be transferred securely from your dentist’s computer directly to the Invisalign lab, shortening the waiting time to begin treatment
    • Smile Simulations with iTero can help you see what your results will look like before you even get started
  • Allows for better treatment planning — which leads to in improved results overall

Our Invisalign Specials

Can’t quite picture what a difference Invisalign will make? One of the many great things about the iTero Scanner is that it has a Smile Simulator which allows you to see what your smile will look like after the Invisalign treatment is complete.
