Confidence comes with iTero - The workflow

Digital impressions with iTero begin with a single-use imaging shield to ensure maximum infection control for the patient and the office staff. The system will identify the tooth to be scanned and the angle at which to scan through voice and visual commands. Each individual scan is presented in color.

The path to a perfect fit

A digital scan performed with iTero is designed to be digitally perfect. This type of precision is designed to eliminate the need to reimpress patients and to significantly reduce remakes. By removing the imprecision that is intrinsic to conventional impression materials, you can deliver consistently good work. iTero allows for the fabrication of numerous types of restorations: veneers, crowns, bridges, inlays, onlays, and implant abutments, from single units to full arches. iTero models are precision milled at Straumann`s state-of-the-art facility in Leipzig.
