iTero Lumina Intraoral Scanner
The iTero Lumina is a modern digital scanner your orthodontist may use to take detailed images of your teeth and mouth. Instead of messy impressions, this scanner creates a fast, comfortable 3D picture that helps your doctor plan your treatment more accurately.
What patients like about it
-
More comfortable scanning: The scanner wand is smaller, which can make the experience more comfortable, especially for children and teens.
-
Faster image capture: The scanner can capture more of your mouth at once, which may help shorten scan time and reduce the need for repeated movements.
-
Better access to hard-to-reach areas: It can scan areas that are sometimes harder to see, which helps your orthodontist get a more complete picture of your teeth and gums.
-
Clear 3D images: The scanner creates realistic 3D images of your mouth, helping your orthodontist explain your treatment in a way that is easier to understand.
-
Built-in camera: The device also includes a high-definition camera, so your doctor can take detailed pictures inside your mouth without needing extra equipment.
-
Tracks changes over time: The scanner can compare images from different visits to help monitor changes in your teeth and oral health.
