Exclamation i-Tero system from Cadent.

Those pics were taken at the seminar..

It was interesting and some of cases are from this scanner..



Scaning has to be leaned about 45 degree against occlusal




in front of monitor



Scanning one by one..



cute keyboard & mouth



The scanner is very light.. easy to handle



two i-tero assistent guys



the length of the scanner is about 30-40 cm.. I don't know Inches..



i-Tero's conveinient articulater.. but I don't like this type..



left



rear



bottom



close up shot.. the model is not able to carve detailed facial texture..



The model itself is made of polyurethan.. but it's carvable with regular blade



I made a little loose on each dies



dies after detached from model



a model without dies



so this is the i-tero system. It's good for verifiying margins and interproximal contact..

currently, cerec 3d machine is similar with this system. but cerec 3d use sprayed powder on to occlusal.. but this one does not.

I'm interested in comming 3M's intra oral scanner with 3-d printing technology this year.. but their price will be in range of 40 grands..

this i-tero's price is 18,000$.. pretty cheap compared to other brand..

I wish i-tero system is more precise on facial texture for next upgraded
