iTero Digital Impressions: Precision, Speed, and Comfort

At Brace Connection, we’re proud to bring our patients the latest in digital orthodontic technology, the iTero™ Digital Impression System. Say goodbye to messy, goopy putty impressions and hello to a faster, cleaner, and more comfortable experience.

For Invisalign® and clear aligner patients, accuracy matters. The iTero scanner captures even the smallest details of your teeth and gums, creating a high-definition 3D image that helps Dr. Vahid Babaeian plan your treatment with exceptional precision. Think of it as the difference between HDTV and standard definition; the clarity is that impressive.

How Does iTero Work?

The iTero system uses a handheld digital wand to take a complete 3D image of your teeth and gums, quickly, comfortably, and without any mess.

• The wand is non-invasive, so you can breathe, swallow, and relax throughout the process.

• Scanning pauses and resumes as needed, ensuring a perfect result without discomfort.

• You can even watch your 3D scan appear in real time on the screen as Dr. Babaeian moves the wand!

Once your scan is complete, the digital file is sent instantly to the Invisalign lab, eliminating shipping delays. This means your treatment planning can begin right away, often within 24 hours, using Invisalign’s ClinCheck® system.

With this 3D model, Dr. Babaeian can show you a virtual preview of your future smile using the Invisalign Outcome Simulator, so you’ll know exactly what to expect before treatment even begins.

Seamless Treatment with Dental Monitoring

Paired with the Dental Monitoring App, Invisalign patients can send secure smartphone scans of their teeth to Dr. Babaeian for remote review. This allows him to track your progress, determine when it’s time to change aligners, and keep your treatment on schedule, without unnecessary office visits.

It’s orthodontic care made smarter, faster, and more convenient.

iTero Lumina Intraoral Scanner

Brace Connection is also proud to feature the iTero Lumina™ Intraoral Scanner with Simulator Pro — the next generation of digital scanning technology.

With its smaller, more comfortable wand, the Lumina scanner eliminates the need for bulky cameras, retractors, and cheek-pulling. It delivers crystal-clear imaging, creating a comprehensive before-and-after smile assessment report for every exam.

This advanced system:

• Reduces chair time for quicker appointments

• Enhances precision and patient comfort

• Streamlines imaging for faster treatment planning

• Provides high-resolution, real-time scans for optimal results

Every scan is fast, accurate, and completely personalized — giving you a smoother and more efficient orthodontic experience.
