ALIGN TECHNOLOGY ANNOUNCES NEW ITERO LUMINA™ INTRAORAL SCANNER
)
Align Technology, Inc. announced the launch of the iTero Lumina™ intraoral scanner – with a 3X wider field of capture in a 50% smaller and 45% lighter wand, delivering faster scanning speed, higher accuracy, superior visualization, and a more comfortable scanning experience.
Designed with iTero Multi-Direct Capture technology that replaces the confocal imaging technology in earlier models, the iTero Lumina scanner:
- Has a wider field of capture and multi-angled scanning that enables simultaneous capture from multiple angles, making it possible to capture more dentition in a single uninterrupted movement, and deliver smoother, faster, and more accurate scans3;
- Has a larger capture distance of up to 25mm**, making it easier1 to scan complex oral regions such as narrow or deep palates, edentulous spaces, and partially erupted teeth with minimal maneuvering;
- Quickly5, easily1, and accurately3 captures more data and greater detail while delivering exceptional scan quality and photorealistic 3D models that remove the need for the bulky digital cameras and cheek retractors required for traditional intraoral photos;
- Provides an effortless scanning experience that sets a new level of ergonomics and comfort, and helps remove adoption and utilization barriers7; and
- Delivers a better patient experience with a significantly smaller and lighter wand, which is especially beneficial for kids and teen patients.
“The accuracy, speed and ergonomics of iTero Lumina is ideal for complex scans that require more attention to details and maneuvering. For example, for full arch scans, full mouth reconstructions, multiple restorative units, and conservative preparations like veneers which were some of the most impressive features I've noticed so far during my clinical trials.”
