The iTero digital scanner is a highly advanced piece of equipment. It can create a 3D image of your teeth in minutes, able to show a detailed picture of your mouth for accurate diagnosis and treatment. It is often used in orthodontic cases, but can also give precise detail to restorative dental treatments, including crowns, bridges and dental implants.
With the iTero scanner, messy and uncomfortable dental impressions are a thing of the past. The scan is quick and easy, reducing the time you need to be in the dental chair. We can easily talk you through the treatment process, and even show your predicted new smile before treatment has even begun!
The Medit i700 scanner offers exceptional speed, accuracy and convenience during the scanning process, producing detailed images without the need for a long appointment. The flexible device fits comfortably in your mouth and enables us to see every aspect of your teeth and gums in high quality, essential for restorative dentistry.
The Medit i700 scanner can also aid patient communication, giving you a better idea of what is going on inside your mouth, and the treatment needed to restore it to full health.
