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 wand2, which is especially beneficial for kids and teen patients.
“Today we’re excited to introduce the next generation of iTero scanning technology that pushes the boundaries of what the industry has come to expect from a scanner,” said Karim Boussebaa,
“It’s exciting to reveal the iTero Lumina intraoral scanner, designed to meet the needs of doctors and their patients, including a smaller wand with data capture capabilities and the potential to redefine what scanners can do,” said Arie Eshco,
“iTero Lumina is such a leap in scanning innovation: six cameras, increased capture range while floating over the dentition. I can confidently show my patients that I have the best, the most accurate, the fastest and importantly the most effective integration of digital workflow when treating them with Invisalign. I want to apply this innovation to increase my efficiency and efficacy in the Invisalign system, and to deliver the best experience possible for my patients…and that’s what the iTero Lumina allows me to do.”
– Dr.
“iTero Lumina has amazing cameras. You capture multiple surfaces at the same time and when I work with my younger patients, I can take a scan really in a few seconds, especially in mouths where we only have 20/24 teeth, such as early deciduous or mixed dentition patients.”
– Dr.
“Our practice data shows scanning quality and times have improved with the iTero Lumina scanner, which highlights to the consumer we are all about precision orthodontics and up-to-date digital technology. It’s a tremendous leap forward in imaging and visualization which translates to better communication and patient experience.”
– Dr.
“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.”
– Dr.
