At Adirondack Orthodontics, we stay at the forefront of the latest technology to prioritize patient comfort, education, and experience. A key part of that commitment is our use of the iTero® digital scanning system, which captures an incredibly precise 3D copy of your teeth and bite. This level of accuracy is essential for today’s orthodontics—especially for clear aligner treatment such as Invisalign®, where the fit and performance of every aligner depend on the precision of the scan.
Why Precision Matters
Orthodontic treatment is all about moving teeth with accuracy. The more exact the starting model of your teeth, the more precisely we can plan each step of your treatment.
- Better Scans = Better Aligners – A high-resolution digital scan means each Invisalign tray is crafted to fit perfectly, moving teeth efficiently and comfortably.
- Predictable Results – Accurate scans allow us to map tooth movement with confidence, which leads to more predictable outcomes and fewer refinements.
- Comfort & Speed – A precise aligner fit reduces rubbing or irritation and often shortens overall treatment time.
When you combine iTero precision with our premium partner Invisalign, you get treatment that is faster, more comfortable, and more reliable—from your first tray to your final smile.
What is an iTero Scanner?
An iTero scanner is a state-of-the-art digital imaging system that creates a complete 3D model of your teeth in minutes. A small, hand-held wand is gently moved over your teeth, taking thousands of pictures per second. The process is quick, clean, and completely comfortable, with no old-fashioned impression trays or messy molds.
See Your Future Smile in Real Time
Immediately after scanning, we can show you a live 3D simulation of how your smile could look after treatment. This instant visualization helps you understand your orthodontic plan and builds confidence in your next steps.
A Fully Digital Workflow
Your iTero scan integrates seamlessly into our all-digital orthodontic process:
- Precise Treatment Planning – The 3D images feed directly into Invisalign’s software or our braces planning tools.
- Enhanced Communication – Digital files allow our doctors to plan and adjust with exact detail and share progress easily.
- Fewer Adjustments – Precision scanning means aligners and appliances fit accurately from the start, reducing refinements and saving time.
