All-Around Impressive–Benefits to Your Patients
It is obvious that your patients will find the iTero impression process more comfortable than the traditional impression method. However, it is worth noting that in double-blind studies, patients realized that the iTero impression is faster than the traditional method. In fact, recorded impression times average just three to five minutes per case. When questioned on gagging, anxiety, poking, stretching, and post-impression comfort, across the board, patients prefer iTero impressions to conventional impressions. Independent surveys of patients participating in the clinical studies indicate:
- 61% perceive the time for the iTero impression was faster
- 65% reported that the iTero impression was more comfortable
- 71% prefer or strongly prefer the iTero technology
- 88% believe iTero is “interesting technology” and 74% think it is “great that my dentist has the technology”
- 85% “will tell others about this technology”
