iTero™ Digital Impressions – Speed, Accuracy & Comfort
Rad Orthodontics is proud to offer iTero Digital Impressions for our patients. Unpleasant putty impressions are a thing of the past with the iTero Digital system!
For patients who are candidates for Invisalign® aligners, an accurate impression is essential for effective treatment planning and orthodontic care. The accuracy and detail of the iTero scan vs a putty impression is comparable to watching HDTV over standard definition TV.
The iOC Scanner captures the contours of tooth and gingival structures, producing an accurate digital orthodontic scan in minutes. This non-invasive procedure is ideal for patients undergoing treatment with Invisalign clear aligners — no unpleasant putty material traditionally associated with taking impressions.
Benefits of Teeth Scanning
*Eliminates Putty Impressions – the most invasive procedure in daily orthodontic care. No more goopy, unpleasant aftertaste of traditional impressions. An increase in your comfort!
*Superior Accuracy – with no distortion from patient movement during set, removal of impression, or disinfection.
*Onscreen Visualization – allows for immediate adjustment to create the ideal orthodontic scan the first time. The iTero image appears on the screen as the orthodontist scans your mouth in real time!
*Single Use Imaging Shield – to ensure maximum cleanliness
How iTero 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.
Rad Orthodontics Reviews
Big shout-out to the Rad Orthodontics - Bethesda team for their professionalism and clear, detailed breakdowns of our care. JB takes fantastic care of my daughter and always goes the extra mile. Highly recommend!
I think they’re great. Everyone is friendly and helpful. They also did my daughter’s braces in an efficient (not cheap, though braces are never cheap) manner. I highly recommend them. And now I’m doing Invisalign with them!
Professional service, easy, on time appointments and friendly staff.
