iTero 3D Scanner
At Ottawa Downtown Dentist, we use the iTero® 3D Scanner to take a complete digital impression of your smile, used to create clear custom Invisalign aligners just for you.
What is iTero?
The iTero impression scanner takes extremely accurate, 3D impressions of your bite and oral structures. It allows us to adjust your Invisalign treatment in real time, store data digitally, and show your expected results.
The iTero Process
Using the intraoral scanner, we take a complete 3D scan of your mouth then project this image on the iTero screen to show you what your smile currently looks like from all angles.
We then use iTero's Smile Simulator to show you a 3D rendering of what your smile could look like once your treatment is complete. Your scans are also used to create your custom aligners.
