Experience Cutting-Edge Dental Care with High Mountain Dentistry’s New iTero Scanner

At High Mountain Dentistry, we’re always looking for ways to enhance your dental experience. That’s why we’re excited to introduce the latest addition to our practice: the iTero intraoral scanner. This state-of-the-art technology revolutionizes the way we capture dental impressions, offering a more comfortable, accurate, and efficient process for our patients.

What Is the iTero Scanner?

The iTero scanner is a digital imaging device that captures precise 3D images of your teeth and gums. Unlike traditional methods that involve uncomfortable trays and impression materials, the iTero scanner uses a small, handheld wand to create detailed digital impressions quickly and comfortably.

Enhanced Comfort for Patients

Say goodbye to the days of biting into gooey, unpleasant materials. The iTero scanner eliminates the need for traditional impression methods, reducing discomfort and making dental visits more pleasant. This is especially beneficial for patients with strong gag reflexes or sensitivities.

Improved Accuracy and Efficiency

Accuracy is crucial in dental diagnostics and treatment planning. The iTero scanner provides highly detailed images, allowing for more precise assessments and better-fitting restorations. This level of precision reduces the likelihood of errors and the need for repeat appointments, saving time for both patients and practitioners.

Faster Treatment Planning

Time is valuable, and the iTero scanner helps expedite the dental process. The digital impressions are available immediately, enabling quicker diagnosis and treatment planning. This efficiency means patients can receive their dental appliances, such as crowns or aligners, in a shorter timeframe.

Enhanced Patient Engagement

The iTero scanner’s real-time imaging capabilities allow patients to see a 3D model of their mouth during the consultation. This visual aid helps patients better understand their oral health and the proposed treatments, fostering informed decision-making and increased satisfaction with their dental care.

Eco-Friendly Technology

By eliminating the need for physical impression materials, the iTero scanner contributes to a more sustainable dental practice. This digital approach reduces waste and minimizes the environmental impact associated with traditional impression methods.

Applications of the iTero Scanner

The versatility of the iTero scanner extends to various dental procedures, including:

• Orthodontics: Creating accurate digital models for treatments like Invisalign.
• Restorative Dentistry: Designing precise crowns, bridges, and implants.
• Preventive Care: Monitoring changes in oral health over time through wellness scans.
