In the past few years, digital technologies have proved to be revolutionary for orthodontics as well.
Just a few years ago, a new term appeared – digital orthodontics, which implies the use of digital technologies in the process of diagnosis, treatment planning and implementation. The iTero digital scanner is the latest generation digital orthodontics device, which makes the treatment process much more comfortable for both the patient and the doctor.
The iTero intraoral scanner is designed to deliver speed, accuracy and reliability. Outstanding imaging capabilities enable general practitioners and orthodontists to make the most accurate diagnosis and treatment planning. On the other hand, the patient:
- It takes less time to get the service (scanning instead of taking a printout)
- It can see the 3D visual of the mouth on the screen with guaranteed accuracy
- The scanned file is automatically loaded into the database…
- Without leaving the clinic, the patient can see how the result will be at the end of the treatment.
In order for the doctor and the patient to assess the state of the oral cavity, detect abnormalities and make a treatment plan, the doctor conducts a scan of the oral cavity using the iTero scanner, which is the first in Georgia to be used in our clinic. iTero digitally captures the structure of teeth and gums using the latest optical technology. The scanner is compact and convenient. A full mouth scan takes only two to three minutes, and as a result, a perfect, 3D image of the patient’s teeth and soft tissues is displayed on the screen. The patient and the doctor have the opportunity to view the 3D model of the oral cavity in detail with the help of the “touch screen” during the consultation and discuss the existing disorders. We use the iTero scanner during any orthodontic treatment, including treatment with Invisalign – invisible caps.
The main advantage of this scanner is that it allows us (even before treatment) to see a simulation of the patient’s treatment result so that he can visualize what his smile could look like after orthodontic treatment.
“Nino Beridze Orthodontic Center” offers diagnostics with the first, latest generation iTero scanner in Georgia for greater accuracy and comfort.
