Intraoral Scanner

We use the iTero Lumina intraoral scanner!

The iTero Lumina is a small handheld device we use to take highly detailed images inside your mouth. Instead of messy impressions or manual measurements, this scanner creates a 3D model of your teeth and gums in real time. It combines visible light with infrared technology, so it can even track things like gum health, infections, and subtle changes over time.

Why patients Love It

There are so many benefits to this newer technology, here’s a few our patients enjoy!
  • Crystal-clear imagery: You get to see your teeth in lifelike color on a screen, almost like looking at a 3D photo of your own smile.
  • Health tracking: It monitors gum recession, tooth wear, and other oral health changes visit by visit, so problems are spotted earlier.
  • Comfortable and fast: No trays of goo or long waiting—just a quick, touch-free scan.
  • Accuracy: The 3D models are precise down to fractions of a millimeter, which means your treatments can be more exact.
  • Not an X-ray: The iTero Lumina doesn’t use radiation. It’s basically a high-tech camera and scanner—not an X-ray machine.
  • Invisalign Connection: For patients interested in Invisalign clear aligners, the iTero scan is the starting point. The detailed 3D model of your teeth is used to design and plan your personalized Invisalign treatment.
