The 3D iTeroĀ® Scanner

Your very own digital dental smile design

At Malmin we believe in combining our expertise with newest technology and weā€™re proud that most of our clinics now offer the new digital state-of-the-art iTeroĀ® scanning machines.

The technology enables dental clinicians to provide a realistic digital image of your teeth using ClinCheck 3DĀ® technology. The 3D iTeroĀ® Scanner is one of a new breed of technology that is revolutionising dentistry allowing you to have your very own digital dental smile design.

The magic of iTeroĀ® scanning lies in providing dental care professionals with more streamlined and efficient practice, supporting diagnostic and treatment planning needs for optimal patient care. The iTeroĀ® technology also allows us to create an accurate visual simulation of what your teeth would look like following treatment.

How does it work?

iTeroĀ® works by capturing thousands of images of the inside of the mouth and then assembling them into a clinically accurate 3D digital dental smile design of the mouth, teeth, and gums.

Those are then further analysed and inspected in greater detail allowing our clinicians to create the best and most accurate treatment plan for you.
