Align Technology, Inc. Announces Availability of Restorative Capabilities on Its Next Generation iTero Lumina Intraoral Scanner and New iTero Lumina Pro Dental Imaging System
Align Technology, Inc. announced the addition of restorative capabilities to its next generation iTero Lumina intraoral scanner (without iTero Near Infra-Red Imaging (NIRI) technology) and the new iTero Lumina Pro dental imaging system (with iTero NIRI technology), to enable efficient restorative and multidisciplinary ortho-restorative workflows and support diagnostic of interproximal caries above the gingiva, helping GP dentists reach new levels of practice efficiency and growth while delivering exceptional clinical outcomes. Initially launched in February 2024, the iTero Lumina™ intraoral scanner delivers faster scanning speed, higher accuracy, superior visualization, and a more comfortable scanning experience. The enhanced capabilities of the iTero Lumina solutions provide outstanding scanning experience and performance, optimal for the simplest to the most challenging restorative cases. These capabilities are complemented by simplified restorative workflows that include the capture of single unit dental crowns to full dental arch with multiple preparations in a single pass, with a wave of an iTero Lumina wand. Practice efficiency and growth: Effortless scanning experience and optimized workflows that simplify patient record taking and minimize chair time and footprint Capture simple to complex cases and extraoral appliances and material in one uninterrupted movement and without the need to scan each individual preparation from multiple preparation cases. Experience versatility and efficiency with up to 5 capabilities in one device for less footprint in the practice, designed to reduce maintenance time and cost and enable the full automation of daily tasks from scanning to patient communication and lab collaboration: 1) photorealistic 3D models, 2) HD intraoral camera, 3) aid in interproximal caries detection with NIRI technology, 4) photorealistic scans that eliminate the need for intraoral photos for Invisalign case submission and 5) that are within comparable thresholds of photogrammetry, all in one single scan. Simplify multiple treatment planning by using previous patient scans for all procedures within the treatment plan. No need to re-scan the patient and add chair time to your workflow. Exceptional clinical outcomes: Superior clinical accuracy Achieve predictable and repeatable first-time restoration fit from single unit crowns to removable prosthetics, due to superior full-jaw accuracy compared to tested intraoral scanners and scans that are within accuracy threshold of photogrammetry for full-arch implant restorations - the highest standard for prosthetic planning captured in one single scan. Provide comprehensive patient data to your lab at once, including multi-bite and articulation information, to enable the design of optimal restorations and appliances. Elevated staff and patient experience: Offer a quick and comfortable experience for patients. Increase patient engagement and understanding with a modern and customized experience based on patient-centric views of their oral health condition. Current iTero Lumina scanner owners will receive the new software which includes restorative and diagnostic support capabilities (without iTero NIRI technology) starting April via direct software update, following regulatory clearance in their countries. The iTero Lumina Pro dental imaging system in cart and mobile configurations is commercially available in the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Vietnam. The iTero Lumina scanner cart and mobile configuration is commercially available in the United States, Canada, European Union countries, United Kingdom, Northern Ireland, South Africa, Kenya, Ghana, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Hong Kong, India, Singapore, Vietnam, Korea, Taiwan, and Thailand. The iTero Lumina scanner and iTero Lumina Pro dental imaging system are expected to be available pending regulatory approvals in other locations throughout 2025.
