iTero Scanner
The iTero scanner is an advanced intraoral scanner that is used to create 3D images of your teeth. It captures an accurate image of your teeth and the surrounding structures and picks up problems that are not visible to the eye, such as internally fractured teeth, dental caries and periodontal disease. As a patient, you are able to view these images during your appointment and discuss treatment options with your dentist.
