iTero Element Operation Manual
Intended Use
The iTero Element is an optical impression system (CAD/CAM) used to record topographical images of teeth and oral tissue. Data generated from iTero may be used in conjunction with the production of dental devices (e.g. aligners, braces, appliances, etc.) and accessories.
iTero Element software is used with the iTero Element scanner in capturing 3D digital impressions of teeth, oral soft tissue and structures, and bite relationship. The software controls the processing of the data, facilitating the integration of data, and exporting of the data for the CAD/CAM fabrication of orthodontic devices and other dental accessories. In addition to scan data, various patient and case information can be imported/exported or used for simulation purposes. Other functions are available for verification and service of the system and to serve as an order management tool.
Benefits of the iTero Element System
The iTero Element system provides important advantages over existing systems including powder-free scanning and immediate feedback during the scanning process. In addition, the iTero Element system may increase patient satisfaction, improve clinical outcomes, and enhance office efficiency.
