How the iTero Scanner Helps Dr. Morrison Plan Your Treatment
In the past, to plan a patient’s orthodontic treatment and prepare their invisible aligner trays or clear retainers, we had to take messy dental impressions; it wasn’t a particularly pleasant experience. However, thanks to the wonders of modern technology, we can now get all the information we need to plan your orthodontic treatment with a quick scan of the inside of your mouth, with no dental impressions required.
Does iTero use radiation? Unlike certain types of medical scanning equipment, such as dental X-rays, the iTero scanner does not expose the patient to any radiation to do its job. As small as the risk is from exposure levels with other scanning equipment, with iTero, you don’t have to worry about any risks outweighing the benefits.
