iTero™ NIRI technology, an interproximal caries detection tool you can trust13.
An article from a 2021 clinical study validating the significant benefits of the iTero Element™ 5D imaging systems as an aid in detection and monitoring of interproximal caries found the technology:
- is comparable to bitewing x-rays (BWX) in aiding the detection and diagnosis of interproximal caries lesions above the gingiva.14
- was 66% more sensitive than bitewing x-ray for proximal lesions detection.15
With NIRI technology:
Surveyed doctors who used an iTero Element™ 5D scanner in their practice reported that they increased:
• Interproximal caries detection by 56%3
• Business revenue by 34%4
• Patient acceptance by 71%5
Faster scanning for greater practice efficiency.
NIRI Technology
