Making Better Orthodontic Treatment Possible
At Kattner Orthodontics we are committed to providing only the best care for you and your family. In order to do that we prioritize staying up to date with the latest and greatest in orthodontic technology and procedures. This includes not only advanced training but also making sure we have top-of-the-line equipment in our office ensuring the creation of new, healthy smiles for everyone in Gurnee, Waukegan, Zion, Beach Park, and the surrounding areas. As a part our promise to deliver quality orthodontics we use an advanced scanning system for your treatment called the iTero Elements Scanner.
What Is The iTero Elements Scanner?
The iTero Scanner is a machine specifically designed to capture high-quality, digital impressions of your teeth that your orthodontist will use when creating your personalized, custom orthodontic treatment plan. The scans from the iTero system are three-dimensional images, captured via a small camera, that moves around your mouth and scans your teeth at every angle.
How Does iTero Affect Treatment
The iTero Scanner helps improve treatment both on the patient and orthodontist side creating a more efficient and comfortable process all-around. On the patient side, the iTero camera system improves treatment comfort significantly by eliminating the need for the traditional putty and tray system in order to get
impressions. On the orthodontist side, the scanner produces more accurate images than the impressions. This allows us to create real-time personalized treatment plans for all of our patients. We can also show our patients a visual representation of the results they can expect from treatment.
