Woodborough’s New iTero Scanner: The Only one in the UK!

We have recently been lucky enough to be selected to have an iTero scanner 2 to trial and provide feedback to align technology. We are very proud to be one of only a tiny handful of people to have one of these and are the only one in the UK with the next closest being Italy! Nick has been using it to scan some of our invisalign patients, whilst L’ren has been practicing scanning every chance she gets on the staff, as you can see in one of the pictures below. We’re always eager to be on the cutting edge of dental technology, and really feel the iTero scanner ensures us a place!

Nick in particular has been very excited, due to his unrivaled enthusiasm for all things digital dentistry, and had the following to say about this new edition to the practice:

“As a centre of excellence for digital dentistry and scanning in particular, Align were keen to continue the strong relationship with the practice that had been fostered by Cadent/ Straumann when the original iTero IOS (Intra Oral Scanner) came to the market in the UK and Europe.

Whist we are mainly using this unit for Invisalign cases at the moment where the smaller scanner head size and faster scanning times are proving a revelation, we are confident that this technology will prove a giant step forward for our patients.

That said I still do like the old scanner as it is a bit of an old friend. We have done a lot of cases and we sort of know each others strengths and weaknesses.”
