Quick, Accurate, & Effective Dental Technology

Thanks to advancements made in technology, the field of dentistry has the latest dental technology that provides accurate and effective diagnosis and treatment for all our patients. Our London dental team at Alba Dental Centre wants patients to get the comfort and safety they need for a pleasant visit. We provide iTero 3D Scanner to provide quick and accurate images of your teeth.

What Is the iTero 3D Scanner?

We offer state-of-the-art scans with the iTero® Element 3D Scanner. The scanner is a compact, hand-held wand that digitally captures the structure of the teeth and gums using the latest optical technology. Once your dentist begins the scanning process, it can be stopped and started as many times as necessary.

Your mouth is scanned with a radiation-free laser and, in as little as two to three minutes. The laser renders a digitally perfect, 3D impression of your teeth and soft tissue structures. Through digital software, you’ll then be able to follow the progress of the scans, including a 3D model of your teeth on our computer screen.

The Benefits of iTero 3D Scanner

The new technology eliminates the tray and putty impressions, where the experience is comparable to stuffing a big wad of gum in your mouth. The old technique is incredibly unpleasant and frequently results in taking multiple rounds of impressions that can be rejected, broken, or misplaced.

With the iTero scanner, you can expect to enjoy the benefits such as:

Precision and accuracy
Fewer redos
Better aligner fit
No goopy physical impressions
Comfortable — no goop, no gagging
A high-resolution, interactive image of your teeth
Track your progress at every appointment

The iTero scanner ensures a more accurate impression, resulting in improved treatment and a more comfortable patient experience. Digital impressions allow you to see your teeth instantly in 3D, improving communication during the consultation and treatment process.
