Next-generation iTero Lumina solutions with comprehensive capabilities provides transformative solutions for general practitioner (“GP”) dental practices to enable diagnostic, restorative, and multidisciplinary ortho-restorative workflows — including Near Infra-Red Imaging (NIRI) technology in the iTero Lumina Pro dental imaging system.

• Builds on 20+ years of expertise in restorative dentistry and the success of the proprietary iTero Multi-Direct Capture™ technology initially launched in February 2024 for clinical orthodontic needs.
• Powered by iTero Multi-Direct Capture™ technology with 3x larger field of view¹, and maximum capture distance of 25mm², designed to scan 2x faster² and s

  implify the capture of challenging areas for dentures, palates, edentulous spaces, and other complex cases.

• Facilitates the capture of all case types and supports highly efficient workflows.
• Superior full jaw clinical accuracy compared to tested intraoral scanners³ - iTero Lumina™ solutions enable predictable and repeatable first-time restoration fit⁴ from single unit crowns to removable prosthetics.
• iTero Lumina™ scans are within accuracy threshold of photogrammetry¹¹ (the highest standard for prosthetic planning) for full-arch implant restorations⁵ - captured in one single scan.
• Outstanding simplicity and highly efficient workflow with capture of single unit crowns to full arch preparations in a s

  ingle pass.

• iTero Lumina™ solutions offer up to 5 capabilities in one device and one scan.
• Elevated patient experiences thanks to quick and comfortable scanning⁹, for exceptional care.

Initially launched in February 2024, the iTero Lumina™ intraoral scanner delivers faster scanning speed², higher accuracy³, superior visualization⁸, and a more comfortable scanning experience.⁹

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 technology⁷, 4) photorealistic scans that eliminate the need for intraoral photos for Invisalign^® case submission⁸ and 5) that are within comparable thresholds of photogrammetry¹¹, 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 accuracy³
  • Achieve predictable and repeatable first-time restoration fit⁵ from single unit crowns to removable prosthetics, thanks to superior full-jaw accuracy compared to tested intraoral scanners³ and scans that are within accuracy threshold of photogrammetry for full-arch implant restorations⁴ - 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 experience⁹ for patients.
  • Increase patient engagement and understanding with a modern and customized experience based on patient-centric views of their oral health condition.¹⁰

“We are excited to announce that the upgraded iTero Lumina^™ scanner and new iTero Lumina^™ Pro dental imaging system can now help doctors deliver exceptional restorative outcomes with the wave of a wand,” said Karim Boussebaa, Align Technology executive vice president and managing director for the iTero scanner and services business. “The iTero Lumina^™ solutions include superior 3D and 2D visualizations, to augment and amplify oral health assessment and communication using the Align^™ Oral Health Suite, designed to increase patient engagement and understanding of their oral health condition.”

Dr. Karla Soto, GP dentist and Align^® Faculty member with a practice in Boca Raton, Florida, added, “The iTero Lumina scanner excels in the traditionally challenging scans with long spans, like full arch implant restorations or even edentulous areas. The amount of data and tissue it can capture is outstanding, making what was once a challenge, an easy, fast, and comfortable procedure for me, my team, and my patients.”

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.
