iTero™ Digital Impressions

Accurate impressions are vital in ensuring Panucci Orthodontics delivers effective treatment planning and state of the art orthodontic care. iOC Scanners capture unique contours of each patient’s teeth, as well as gingival structures.  iOC produces accurate digital Orthodontic scans in a very short span of time.

iTero Facts

iTero hand held wands snap a digital three-dimensional image of teeth.  With the wand, Dr. Panucci can stop as needed to ensure 3-D images are accurate and precise.  This technology offers a way to view 3-D images “on screen” and in real-time, cutting down on time needed to ship impressions to labs for scanning. Digital images are now sent electronically and are available via Invisalign’s ClinCheck system the very next day. When you think of viewing something via standard television, iTero scans are more like modern HDTV in terms of definition.  One of the great features, is that re-scanning is eliminated, since the “clay modeling” step is removed from the equation. The results are greater accuracy and less time needed from scan to creation of and placement of appliances.

What are the benefits of scanning my teeth?

  • The need for creating clay impressions is eliminated. Since this is considered the most invasive procedure of orthodontic care, it equates to better patient comfort
  • Better Accuracy – Since there is no distortion (created by patient movement) during setting of the impression, scans are more accurate, making aligners fit as comfortably as possible
  • Real Time Visualization – This allows adjustment on an immediate basis, ensuring an ideal orthodontic scan on the first try
