When preparing restorations or oral appliances, such as Invisalign® clear aligners, our dentist will first need to get a good look and understanding of your teeth and oral structures. We use iTero® digital scanning in Thousand Oaks, California, to help us create restorations and oral appliances that fit your smile comfortably and aesthetically. Call Los Robles General & Cosmetic Dental at 805-449-9952 to see the iTero technology for yourself during an appointment with Dr. Mojgan Hashemi!
Our office uses iTero® digital scanning to view three-dimensional images of the inside of your mouth. iTero digital imaging is a state-of-the-art technology that captures high-quality images of your teeth and supporting structures, making it easy for our dentist and team to diagnose problems and provide effective treatments. The iTero scanner captures up to 20 images per second in full color, allowing us to easily distinguish between healthy and diseased tissue, build accurate digital models of your mouth, and create appliances and restorations that fit and function better. iTero technology can even simulate your treatment outcome to show you what your end result should look like!
When our dentist or hygiene team scan your mouth, a small wand will be used to quickly and comfortably scan the inside of your mouth. As the wand passes over your teeth, the images captured will be processed simultaneously to provide an immediate, complete and highly accurate image of your mouth. The pictures are even saved automatically every few seconds, so there is no need for you to sit through a second scan.
