Dr. John Savukinas and our team are proud to use iTero® digital scanning technology to enhance your experience and improve your dental care. This advanced imaging system captures precise, three-dimensional images of your teeth and soft tissues without the need for traditional molds. Whether you are visiting us for a routine checkup, cosmetic treatment or restorative procedure, iTero helps us plan and deliver care that is accurate, efficient and comfortable.
How iTero Works
The iTero scanner uses a compact handheld wand to take thousands of images per second, which are then compiled into a detailed digital model of your mouth. The process is quick, noninvasive and entirely free of the discomfort associated with messy impression materials. You can relax in the chair while we scan your teeth and see the digital results appear in real time on our screen.
This technology helps us evaluate the alignment, wear and health of your teeth and gums. It is especially useful for planning orthodontic treatment, creating custom crowns or bridges and monitoring changes in your dental health over time. Because the scans are saved automatically, there is no need to repeat the process if an error occurs.
Why Patients Prefer Digital Scanning
Patients appreciate iTero scanning because it makes their appointments faster and more pleasant. There are no trays to gag on, no putty to hold in place and no waiting for models to harden. The digital accuracy also leads to better-fitting restorations and appliances, which means fewer adjustments and quicker results. With iTero, we can even simulate your expected outcome before treatment begins, helping you visualize your new smile.
