iTero® Digital Scanning Tampa
Faster Impressions Without the Mess
As part of our comprehensive digital planning process, we use iTero® digital intraoral scanning to capture the current status of your teeth and plan for your future implant site. This technology allows us to virtually move teeth into more ideal positions if we believe teeth alignment is necessary before your dental implant placement. We can also virtually walk through or around your teeth to discuss any issues we should address at the same time. For more information about iTero digital scanning in Tampa and to schedule an appointment with our dentist, Dr. Justin Elikofer, please call Florida Digital Implants at 813-972-1653.
How Does iTero Digital Scanning Work?
Our office uses iTero® digital scanning to view three-dimensional images of the inside of your mouth. iTero digital imaging is a state-of-the-art technology that captures high-quality images of your teeth and supporting structures, making it easy for our dentist and team to diagnose problems and provide effective treatments. The iTero scanner captures up to 20 images per second in full color, allowing us to easily distinguish between healthy and diseased tissue, build accurate digital models of your mouth, and create appliances and restorations that fit and function better. iTero technology can even simulate your treatment outcome to show you what your result should look like!
When our dentist or hygiene team begins the process, a small wand will be used to scan the inside of your mouth quickly and comfortably. As the wand passes over your teeth, the images captured will be processed simultaneously to provide an immediate, complete, and highly accurate image of your mouth. The pictures are even saved automatically every few seconds, so there is no need for you to sit through a second scan.
