In our orthodontic practice in Paris, we use iTero technology for invisible orthodontic treatments. It is a serial image capture by optical sensor (without radiography) assisted by a light beam (laser), all without any danger to the patient or the operator. It is a new technique that replaces the traditional impression taking with the pink paste.

For the patient, this technique significantly reduces nausea, gagging and discomfort from a material-laden impression tray. Most of my patients say they enjoyed this new digital impression technique.
