Until recently, creating a personalized braces or Invisalign plan required that patients sit through the long and tedious process of making teeth impressions. This process involves sitting in your orthodontist chair with a mouth full of dental putty—unable to talk or swallow—for nearly ten minutes. However, Dr. Dann Orthodontics has incorporated, embracing newest innovations like the iTero Intraoral Scanner.
Gone are the days of lengthy putty impressions in our practice. The iTero Intraoral Scanner (by Align Technology) utilizes an optical scanning wand to create fully-realized, 3D digital models of our patients’ teeth, jaws, and bites.
The iTero Intraoral Scanner is cleaner, easier to use, and much more precise than putty impressions. As such, Dr. Dann is using this new technology to develop customized treatment plans for Invisalign and Invisalign Teen patients of his Orlando and Winter Park practice.
As of March 2016, iTero has been used in more than 1 million Invisalign® scans. Itero scans are also used for appliances, retainers and diagnostic models. To experience the difference of the iTero Intraoral Scanner and begin your customized Invisalign or Invisalign Teen treatment plan, contact the team at Dr. Dann Orthodontics today. Together, we can create your perfect smile.
