iTero Scanner

At Rawle Orthodontics, we are dedicated to integrating the latest technology into our practice to enhance the patient experience and improve treatment outcomes. One of the standout technologies we use is the iTero Scanner, a revolutionary tool that redefines the process of orthodontic diagnostics and treatment planning.

The iTero Scanner is a state-of-the-art digital scanning system that captures detailed 3D images of your teeth and gums. Unlike traditional dental impressions, which can be uncomfortable and messy, the iTero Scanner provides a quick, accurate, and comfortable alternative. This advanced digital scanner allows us to create precise digital models of your mouth, which are essential for designing effective and customized orthodontic treatments.

At Rawle Orthodontics, the iTero Scanner plays a crucial role in our approach to personalized care. From your initial consultation to the final stages of your treatment, we use the scanner to gather detailed information about your oral health and monitor your progress. Whether you’re getting Invisalign aligners or traditional braces, the iTero Scanner ensures that every step of your treatment is tailored to your unique needs.

Benefits of iTero

• Comfort and Convenience — The iTero Scanner eliminates the need for traditional putty impressions, making the process far more comfortable for patients. The handheld wand is simply moved around your mouth, capturing high-resolution images in a matter of minutes.
• Accuracy — With the iTero Scanner, we can capture highly accurate 3D images, ensuring that your treatment plan is based on precise data. This level of detail helps in creating better-fitting aligners and traditional braces, which can lead to more effective and efficient treatment.
• Visualization — One of the most exciting features of the iTero Scanner is the ability to visualize your treatment progress and potential outcomes. Using the scanned images, we can show you a digital simulation of how your teeth will move over time and what your smile will look like at the end of treatment. This visualization helps you understand the benefits of the treatment and stay motivated throughout the process.
• Speed — The scanning process is quick, taking only a few minutes to complete. This reduces the time you spend in the chair during your appointments and speeds up the overall treatment planning process.
• Improved Communication — The digital images captured by the iTero Scanner can be easily shared with our team and other dental professionals involved in your care. This facilitates better communication and collaboration, ensuring that you receive the highest standard of orthodontic treatment.

Digital X-Rays

At Rawle Orthodontics, we prioritize the health and comfort of our patients by utilizing the most advanced diagnostic tools available. Digital X-rays are a key component of our comprehensive orthodontic care, providing clear and precise images that are crucial for accurate diagnosis and effective treatment planning.

Digital X-rays, also known as digital radiography, are a modern alternative to traditional film X-rays. Utilizing advanced digital technology, these X-rays capture high-resolution images of your teeth, bones, and surrounding structures. These images are then instantly available on a computer screen, allowing for a more efficient and detailed examination of your oral health.

At Rawle Orthodontics, digital X-rays are an integral part of our diagnostic process. From your initial consultation through each phase of your treatment, we use digital X-rays to evaluate your oral health, monitor progress, and make any necessary adjustments to ensure optimal outcomes. This technology enables us to provide personalized and effective orthodontic care with a focus on safety and precision.

Benefits of Digital x-rays

• Enhanced Image Quality — Digital X-rays offer superior image quality compared to traditional film X-rays. The high-resolution images enable us to detect even the smallest issues that may not be visible with older technology. This level of detail is essential for diagnosing conditions early and planning precise treatments.
• Reduced Radiation Exposure — One of the most significant advantages of digital X-rays is the reduced exposure to radiation. Digital radiography requires significantly less radiation than traditional X-rays, making the process safer for you and your family.
• Immediate Results — Digital X-rays provide instant results, eliminating the need for film development. This means we can quickly assess your oral health and discuss findings with you during the same appointment. The immediate availability of images helps in making timely and informed decisions about your treatment plan.
• Eco-Friendly — Digital X-rays are more environmentally friendly than traditional film X-rays. They eliminate the need for chemical processing and reduce waste associated with film and other materials, contributing to a greener practice.
• Better Patient Communication — The clarity and immediacy of digital X-ray images enhance our ability to communicate with you about your dental health. We can show you the images on a computer screen and explain what we see, helping you understand your condition and the recommended treatment options.
• Electronic Storage and Sharing — Digital X-rays can be easily stored and retrieved electronically. This facilitates better record-keeping and allows for seamless sharing with other dental professionals involved in your care. Whether you need a referral to a specialist or are coordinating care with your general dentist, digital images are easy to share and access.
