iTero Scanner available in West Hempstead

At Eisenberger & Bindiger Orthodontics in West Hempstead, traditional impressions using thick, goopy putty can be uncomfortable—especially for nervous kids, teens, and even adults. The iTero scanner changes that experience, allowing patients to relax and leave smiling, not gagging. From the very first scan, the difference is clear: less stress, more confidence.

A Revolution in Comfort: No More Mess, No More Stress

Older impression materials often felt cold, sticky, and uncomfortable—sometimes triggering a gag reflex or anxiety. Our iTero digital impression system replaces that with a smooth wand and screen. Scanning is gentle and fast. Kids and adults respond with smiles, not frowns. It’s the difference between dread and comfort.

How Does the iTero Scanner Work?

The technician gently moves a small wand around the teeth. It captures thousands of 3D images every second. Those images build a precise digital model instantly, visible on our screen. That same scan integrates with systems like Invisalign and is used to design braces and retainers, eliminating the need for messy molds. Parents often watch in real time and appreciate the clarity. It’s a smarter orthodontic experience.

iTero Scanner Benefits You Will Notice

Clean and dry scans, with no powder or putty. That means less gagging and more calm.
More accurate results, with fewer retakes or redraws of mold impressions.
Instant digital files—scan results go right into our software and, if needed, to Invisalign or the lab, often same-day. That shortens treatment planning and helps avoid delays.
Real-time visuals: patients can see their own teeth structure immediately and preview the outcome—this boosts trust in the plan especially for teens and adults.
Eco-friendly: no plaster casts, shipping molds, or wasted materials. It’s kinder to the planet and better for hygiene.

Comparing Traditional Impressions with Digital Scans

Traditional impressions involve biting into a tray of thick putty that hardens slowly. There’s risk of distortion, bubbles, or gag reflex. Sometimes impressions must be redone if a flaw appears.

Digital impressions with the iTero scanner eliminate those risks. Wand scanning causes no discomfort. Results are accurate and instantly usable. Scans don’t warp and can be adjusted on the screen while still in the chair. That’s precision and confidence built into the process.

Most patients say they prefer the iTero approach because it’s cleaner, faster, and more reassuring—especially younger patients and those with a sensitive gag reflex.

iTero Scanner for Invisalign: Best Fit Always

Invisalign trays require perfect fit for effectiveness. The iTero scanner delivers that fit with high precision. Digital impression data uploads directly into the Invisalign ClinCheck system—on the same day. This seamless process cuts delays and reduces remakes. Patients in West Hempstead see smoother Invisalign workflows and faster starts—and better outcomes. The system also lets our team adjust or refine scans immediately.

Better‑Fitting Retainers and Appliances

The same digital impression used for your braces or Invisalign is also used to make retainers, mouthguards, or custom appliances. The iTero scanner ensures better seating, tighter fit, and fewer return visits to tweak the appliance. Same-day retainer delivery is often possible because the digital model can be used immediately by labs or 3D printers. That means less waiting—and more smiles delivered on time.
