No. The iTero scanner is a small wand that passes over your teeth without touching them. There is no gagging, no mess, and no discomfort. Most patients find it significantly more pleasant than traditional putty impressions.
Digital Impressions Without the Mess
The iTero scanner captures a precise 3D model of your teeth in minutes — no goopy impression trays, no gagging, and more accurate results for crowns, aligners, and restorations.
iTero Digital Scanning in Amarillo, TX
The iTero digital scanner replaces traditional putty impressions with a fast, comfortable, and highly accurate digital alternative. At Pybus Dental in Amarillo, Texas, we use iTero scanning to create precise 3D models of your teeth for crowns, bridges, Invisalign, and other treatments that require exact fit.
How iTero Scanning Works
A small handheld wand is moved around your mouth, capturing thousands of images per second. The software assembles these images into a detailed 3D digital model of your teeth and gums in real time. There are no trays, no putty, and no gagging. The process takes just a few minutes and is completely comfortable.
Benefits Over Traditional Impressions
Digital scanning eliminates the discomfort of biting into impression putty. It is faster, more accurate, and produces a digital file that is sent electronically to the laboratory, which reduces turnaround time for your restorations. The improved accuracy also means better-fitting final results.
What Procedures Use iTero
We use iTero scanning for dental crowns and bridges, Invisalign treatment planning, inlays and onlays, and other restorations that require precision fit.
