Conventional vs Digital Impressions
No more goop, gagging, or discomfort. Using an iTero scanner, your orthodontist can take a highly accurate digital impression of your teeth and jaw. The new technology completely eliminates the tray and putty impressions, where the experience is comparable to stuffing a big wad of gum in your mouth. The old technique is incredibly unpleasant and frequently results in taking multiple rounds of impressions that can be rejected, broken, or misplaced. The iTero scanner ensures a more accurate impression from the start, resulting in improved treatment and a more comfortable patient experience. Digital impressions also give you the ability to see your teeth instantly in 3D, improving communication during the consultation and treatment process.
How Does it Work?
The iTero scanner digitally captures the structure of the teeth and gums using the latest optical technology. The scanner is a compact, hand-held wand. Once your orthodontist begins the scanning process, it can be stopped and started as many times as necessary.
Your mouth is scanned with a radiation-free laser, and in as little as two to three minutes, the laser renders a digitally perfect, 3D impression of your teeth and soft tissue structures. Through digital software, you'll then be able to follow the progress of the scans, including a 3D model of your teeth on our computer screen. The iTero scanner can be used for any orthodontic treatment, including Invisalign®.

Always on time! They provide such great care for my daughter! It’s a comfortable environment, super clean and the staff are so friendly!
The team members are nice and hard working. I never have to wait long while I am there. They go the extra mile, for example; They called to check up on me after my first day of invisalign.
My teeth are so straight now thanks to Invisalign 😛😛
Wonderful staff, always helpful
Choosing Thrive Orthodontics was hands-down one of the best decisions I’ve made.

It was a shared journey, and the team at Thrive made it completely seamless. I feel so confident now, and I definitely recommend them to absolutely anyone who asks about my beautiful smile.
