iTero digital scanner at Valeri Orthodontics Kenosha
iTero digital scanning The end of messy
dental impressions.

Traditional orthodontic treatment required patients to bite down into trays filled with impression material — uncomfortable, messy, and prone to errors. At Valeri Orthodontics, we've replaced that entirely with the iTero digital scanner.

The iTero uses a small handheld wand to capture thousands of data points per second, building a precise 3D model of your teeth and bite in just a few minutes. The result is faster, more accurate treatment planning — and a much more comfortable experience for you.

We use digital scanning for all orthodontic records, Invisalign and Angel Aligner treatment, and treatment monitoring at both our Pleasant Prairie and Oak Creek offices.

Why digital scanning is better Better for patients. Better results. Digital scanning isn't just more comfortable — it produces more accurate records that lead to better-fitting appliances and more predictable treatment outcomes.
No impressions, no gagging Say goodbye to trays of impression material. The scanner wand gently moves around your teeth — no gagging, no mess, no discomfort.
Pinpoint accuracy The iTero captures your teeth with exceptional precision — far more accurate than physical impressions, which can distort or have air bubbles.
Results in minutes A full scan takes just a few minutes. The 3D model is available instantly on-screen — no waiting for lab results, no repeat appointments.
See your teeth in 3D During the scan you can watch your teeth appear on screen in real time — a 3D model that helps you understand your treatment plan clearly.
Better-fitting appliances More accurate scans mean better-fitting Invisalign trays, retainers, and other appliances — which means fewer adjustments and more predictable results.
Better patient education Seeing your own teeth in 3D makes it much easier to understand what treatment will do and why. No more guessing from X-rays alone.
