The ITERO scanner is made by Align who also produce the market leading aligner system for straightening teeth, Invisalign. This has allowed for an integrated ability to scan teeth then instantly show how these teeth are predicted to move with with Invisalign. Allowing an excellent opportunity to see the finished result before starting any treatment.
Excellent monitoring of teeth
One of the most important parts of your regular dental exam is monitoring if anything has changed since your previous appointments. Many gradual changes in the teeth can be hard to spot such as:
-
Chipping and wear from possible clenching or grinding habits,
-
Tooth movements from teeth drifting or tilting and crossing over,
-
Recession of gums as they can shrink over time.
These changes are important and while most issues can be spotted at your exam appointment it is impossible to measure these changes over time to by visual inspection to know whether there is an active problem that must be addressed or a previous issue that may have been resolved already.
