Advanced Digital Imaging for Comfortable, Precise Dental Care
At Owen Family Dentistry, we are committed to providing our patients with cutting-edge dental technology that enhances comfort, accuracy, and efficiency. One of the most significant advancements in our practice is the iTero Lumina™ Intraoral Scanner—a next-generation digital scanner that redefines how we capture impressions and plan treatments.
What is the iTero Lumina?
The iTero Lumina is an innovative intraoral scanner that produces highly detailed 3D digital images of the teeth and gums. This advanced system eliminates the need for traditional impression materials, offering a faster, cleaner, and more comfortable experience for patients of all ages. It delivers superior image clarity and coverage, allowing us to diagnose and treat with greater precision than ever before.
Benefits of the iTero Lumina Scanner
Unmatched Accuracy
The iTero Lumina is an innovative intraoral scanner that produces highly detailed 3D digital images of the teeth and gums. This advanced system eliminates the need for traditional impression materials, offering a faster, cleaner, and more comfortable experience for patients of all ages. It delivers superior image clarity and coverage, allowing us to diagnose and treat with greater precision than ever before.
Comfortable and Mess-Free
Unlike traditional impressions, which involve bulky trays and sticky materials, the iTero Lumina uses a handheld wand to scan the mouth gently and comfortably. The process is non-invasive and ideal for patients who are prone to gagging or discomfort during traditional impressions.
Faster Scanning and Shorter Visits
With its enhanced scanning speed and processing power, the iTero Lumina significantly reduces chair time. Most scans are completed in under a minute, allowing for quicker appointments and streamlined workflows.
Real-Time Visualization
Patients can view 3D scans instantly, providing a clear understanding of their oral health and proposed treatment plans. This visual engagement empowers patients to make informed decisions and fosters better communication between doctor and patient.
