Gone are the days of uncomfortable dental impression trays and unpleasant-tasting material; iTero Digital Impressions utilize advanced digital scanning technology to capture precise, three-dimensional images of your teeth and gums.

By leveraging the power of iTero Digital Impressions at Melrose Dental Group, you can enjoy a streamlined dental experience that’s both effective and tailored to your unique dental needs.
Let’s delve further into the capabilities of iTero Digital Impressions and their integration into various dental treatments, illustrating how our skilled dental professionals at Melrose Dental Group maintain their dedication to offering cutting-edge approaches and optimal results for your oral health.
How iTero Digital Impressions Work
The iTero Digital Impression System uses advanced scanning technology to create detailed, three-dimensional digital images of your teeth and gums. Gone are the days of uncomfortable impression trays filled with sticky, messy putty materials. Instead, our dental professionals at Melrose Dental Group expertly utilize an intraoral scanner—a small, pen-like device that gently captures your dental structure without any discomfort or gagging.
As the intraoral scanner moves over your teeth and gums, it captures thousands of frames per second, creating a highly-accurate digital impression. These images can then be assembled to form a comprehensive, 3D model of your dental structure, which can be viewed and manipulated on a computer screen for detailed analysis and treatment planning.
Applications of iTero Digital Impressions in Dental Treatments
The versatility of iTero Digital Impressions allows for their integration into a wide range of dental treatments at Melrose Dental Group, such as:
- Restorative Dentistry: iTero’s impressive accuracy ensures dental restorations, such as crowns, bridges, or veneers, fit seamlessly and function flawlessly.
- Orthodontic Treatment: Invisalign treatment can be dramatically streamlined with iTero, creating precise and customized clear aligners for optimal tooth movement.
- Dental Implant Planning: The detailed digital images obtained from iTero aid in precise planning and placement of dental implants, ensuring a seamless and successful procedure.
- Comprehensive Dental Evaluations: iTero’s 3D models enable our dental professionals to perform thorough evaluations of your teeth, gums, and bite for enhanced diagnostic capabilities.
