Overview

iTero’s most advanced intraoral scanner yet.

The iTero Lumina™ scanner with iTero Multi-Direct Capture™ (MDC) technology pushes the boundaries of what intraoral scanners can do and sets the new standard for practice performance. With effortless scanning and superior visualization, this small wand means a big leap for our practice.

How iTero Lumina™ intraoral scanners work.

iTero Multi-Direct Capture™ technology provides a 3X larger field of view4 and maximum capture distance of 25mm, simplifying the capture of challenging areas such as palates, edentulous spaces, partially erupted and crowded teeth.

Optimizes record-taking with photorealistic scans.

Simplifis patient record-taking with photorealistic 3D models that replace the need for intraoral photos, thanks to advanced optics in the wand’s tip and innovative new software.

“My team and I will – without a doubt – switch to the iTero Lumina™ scanner. After our experience in the clinical validation process, I am not going without it in my office.”

– Dr. David Boschken, DMD

The Process

Step 1: Scanning

The orthodontic assistant scans the patient’s dentition and palatal areas if required. Our Exclusive Invisalign® Integration is a perfect complement to our Invisalign® services. And unlike many other orthodontists who send patients to a 3rd party for scanning, Dr. Boschken does his scanning in-house.

Step 2: Immediate Visualization

The model is built in real-time, providing immediate feedback for patient and parent consultation.

Step 3: Digital Impression Review

Dr. David R. Boschken reviews the patient’s highly detailed dental model for optimal treatment planning.

Step 4a: Bonding Appointment (traditional braces)

If proceeding with traditional braces, Dr. David R. Boschken will order special bonding trays, which help ensure ideal bracket placement.

Step 4b: Invisalign® Patients

3D Dental Scanning is a perfect compliment to Invisalign® treatment. Dr. Boschken will order a set of clear, removable aligners. See the Invisalign® section of our website for more information.
