San Ramon dentist offers iTero digital system for patients

Apr 25 2011

Dr. Carol Jin, Family, Cosmetic and Sedation Dentistry, announced today the addition to its practice; a revolutionary new tool in the quest for better smiles and ease to the patient experience, the Cadent iTero Digital Impression System.

Designed to replace the dreaded goopy, unpleasant tasting, drool and gagging experience associated with traditional impressions, the iTero digital impression system enables Dr. Jin to offer her patients the newest technology driven impression procedure that is far superior to conventional methods.

Using the iTero digital scanner, Dr. Jin can take highly accurate digital 3D impressions for your crown and bridge area, which completely eliminates the uncomfortable tray and putty impression. The iTero eliminates the weaknesses in the traditional impression material, such as voids, pulls or tears. With a precise starting point, Dr. Jin is able to create a digitally accurate restoration for her patients. With this process of using the iTero digital impression system, the patient's crown or bridge will look and feel like natural teeth. The iTero all but guarantees a perfect fit for your new crown or bridge so you spend less time in the dental office and more time enjoying your smile.

By using a hand held scanner, Dr. Jin scans the area to be restored and the patients impression is created 100% digitally with no mess, bad taste, or discomfort. Patients that have a gag reflex can relax as the scanning process can be stopped and started as necessary to accomodate their needs. The sensitive patient will no longer have to tolerate an impression full of goop. This translates into reduced anxiety, a more comfortable impression process and an overall better patient experience.

The iTero digital system has revolutionized the dental profession by providing accurate, real time feedback for the dentist and more importantly, a much more comfortable experience for the patient. This cutting edge technology has brought a new level of clincial results and patient satisfaction. "Once our patients experience the benefits of iTero digital impression system, we are certain they will come away impressed with the technology and the results of their new smile," adds Dr. Carol Jin.
