Product Overview

An intraoral scanner (sometimes referred to as "dental scanner", "digital impression scanner" or "3D oral scanner") is a device used in digital dentistry to capture detailed 3D images of a patient's teeth, gums, and oral tissues. These images are used to create digital impressions, which are more accurate and comfortable than traditional methods.

Intraoral scanners help streamline various dental procedures, including restorative treatments such as dental implants, and orthodontics.

The most advanced intraoral scanner technologies available today offer a combination of accuracy, speed, and ease of use, with features that enhance both patient and dentist experiences.

iTero™ intraoral scanners are designed to meet the above criteria.

With iTero™ scanners, a full-mouth scan can be completed in less than 60 seconds and a full single-arch scan in less than 30 seconds.

iTero™ scanners provide precise 3D digital impressions, seamless integration with dental workflows (including orthodontic and restorative treatments), and cloud-based collaboration for easy data sharing with your dental lab.

The iTero Lumina™ intraoral scanner meets the American Dental Association (ADA) standard for accuracy and has demonstrated superior full jaw accuracy compared to tested competitors.

Certain iTero™ dental scanners models feature cutting-edge iTero™ NIRI technology (Near Infra-Red Imaging), which aids in the detection of interproximal caries above the gingiva without harmful radiation. This real-time, high-resolution imaging supports comprehensive and engaging diagnosis, and conversations with patients.

The iTero Multi-Direct Capture™ technology available on iTero Lumina™ intraoral scanners, provides a wider field of view, large capture distance and multi-angle capture, designed to simplify the scanning of challenging areas like the palate, edentulous spaces, partially erupted teeth, and crowded dentition.

iTero™ scans have been used in more than 14 million restorative case scans (including crown, bridge, and custom implant cases) and more than 66.4 million iTero orthodontic case scans, making them a trusted choice for dental professionals worldwide.

Technology Details

How do iTero scanners work?

iTero scanners use advanced digital imaging technology to capture highly detailed 3D impressions of a patient's teeth and oral anatomy. These scanners utilize two main technologies. The first one is confocal scanning technology, which captures thousands of data points by reflecting light off the tooth surface to build precise 3D images layer by layer. This allows dental professionals to view the patient's oral anatomy in real-time and high resolution.

The second type of technology, available in iTero Lumina™ scanners, is the iTero Multi-Direct Capture™ (MDC) technology which collects multiple layers of data simultaneously to quickly and accurately capture more data while delivering exceptional scan quality.

Some iTero™ models also feature the iTero NIRI technology (Near Infra-Red Imaging), which aids in detecting interproximal cavities above the gingiva without the use of radiation, offering a non-invasive method for caries detection.

By combining these cutting-edge technologies, iTero™ scanners deliver high levels of accuracy, speed, and diagnostic support, making them essential tools for modern dental practices.
