Ask Us About How iTero & CBCT Scanner Technology Can Benefit Your Smile

Digital technologies can offer significant benefits to your oral health, and at Drs. Galligan & Villa Dental Studio in Staten Island, we know that iTero intraoral scanners and CBCT scans help our team deliver care that’s highly customized to each patient’s unique smile needs!

How do these technologies work?

iTero technology utilizes digital impressions for Invisalign and other orthodontic procedures by providing our team with a highly accurate view of a patient’s mouth, gums, teeth, and all other oral structures.

In addition to the scanner’s highly sanitary, efficient, and incredibly detailed impressions, this technology ensures that patients spend less time in a dental chair. And because the digital images produced by iTero are so accurate, they eliminate the need for multiple impressions, which is a common issue with traditional approaches.

CBCT Scan (also known as cone beam computed tomography) is a three-dimensional radiograph that is similar to a “CAT scan” except that it utilizes a cone-shaped beam to capture images with significantly less radiation. It offers highly precise digital images of the teeth, jaws, and other structures in the mouth. CBCT is often used in dental implant surgery, and to examine jaw joints, sinuses, or other parts of the oral anatomy.
