How We Plan Invisalign with the iTero Lumina™ Scanner

When it comes to Invisalign treatment, precision matters. That’s why all our Invisalign cases are planned using the iTero Lumina™ intra-oral scanner — one of the most advanced digital scanning systems available today.

A Smarter, More Comfortable Start to Invisalign

Instead of traditional moulds or impressions, the iTero Lumina™ captures a fast, comfortable 3D scan of your teeth and bite. This digital scan forms the foundation of your Invisalign treatment plan, ensuring exceptional accuracy from the very first step.

The scanning process is clean, quick, and completely mess-free — making it a far more comfortable experience for patients.

See Your Smile Before Treatment Begins

One of the biggest advantages of the iTero system is its ability to create instant on-screen smile simulations. Using your scan, we can show you how your teeth could move over time and what your potential new smile may look like — before treatment even starts.

This means:

  • No guesswork
  • Clear expectations
  • Confidence in your treatment journey

Why the iTero Lumina™ Scanner Makes a Difference

Unmatched Accuracy
The scanner captures ultra-precise 3D images of your teeth and bite, allowing us to plan your Invisalign treatment with incredible detail and predictability.

Comfortable, No-Impression Experience
Forget messy moulds. Digital scanning is fast, clean, and far more comfortable — especially for patients with gag reflexes or dental anxiety.

Instant Smile Visualisation
Seeing your future smile in advance helps you make informed decisions and feel excited and confident about your treatment.

Precision Planning for Predictable Results

By combining advanced digital scanning with Invisalign’s proven technology, we’re able to design highly personalised treatment plans that deliver precise, predictable outcomes — all while keeping your comfort front and centre.

If you’re considering Invisalign, the iTero Lumina™ scanner ensures your journey starts with clarity, confidence, and cutting-edge care.
