iTero & Invisalign
Invisalign is a series of clear, removable aligners that straighten your teeth without the traditional metal and wires. iTero intraoral scanners are compatible with the Invisalign system, and help us plan your treatment. The digital scans are also easily shared with other dental professionals and third-party providers, like Invisalign. We can simply send the scans to Invisalign Technologies so they can create your custom clear aligners.
We can also use the scans with the Invisalign Outcome Simulator to show you how your Invisalign treatment will look at the end.
Treatment Planning
Family Dentistry of Upper Marlboro can create effective Invisalign treatment plans using the iTero scanner. Overall, the enhanced digital scans mean more efficient and convenient treatment for you. You’ll never have to worry about the goopy mess that comes with taking traditional impressions, plus it’s a quick and accurate process.
Regular scans with iTero throughout your Invisalign treatment can help us track your progress and compare the expected outcomes with results. If results aren’t as expected, we can use the scans to show you the treatment recommendations and why it’s so important to follow them.
