February 03 2021 - 4:00PM
Align Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ: ALGN) today announced the
availability of the iTero Element® Plus Series, which expands the
company’s portfolio of iTero Element scanners and imaging systems
to include new solutions that serve a broader range of the dental
market.
The new iTero Element Plus Series of scanners and imaging
systems builds on the success of the award-winning iTero Element
family and offers all of the existing orthodontic and restorative
digital capabilities doctors have come to rely on — plus faster
processing time and advanced visualization capabilities for a
seamless scanning experience in a new sleek, ergonomically designed
package. Available in both cart and mobile configurations, the
iTero Element Plus Series offers increased flexibility and
mobility. The mobile configuration makes the power of the iTero
Element Plus Series portable with a medical grade, compact mobile
scanner solution that delivers the same high-quality images as the
cart configuration.
“We are committed to meeting doctors’ evolving needs and
designed the iTero Element Plus Series to help them provide the
best clinical care for their patients, increase practice growth,
and easily integrate digital scanning and imaging into their
clinics as a core part of their digital workflow,” said Yuval
Shaked, Align Technology, senior vice president and managing
director, iTero scanner and services business. “With over 20 years
of innovation in digital orthodontics and dentistry, including
intraoral scanners and digital workflows, we are focused on
bringing the latest technology to doctors and their patients. We
engineered the iTero Element Plus Series with the latest computing
power, a dedicated AI chip, and new AI-based features as well as an
easy upgrade path — making it right for today’s needs and ready for
tomorrow.”
The iTero Element Plus Series of solutions offer restorative and
orthodontic digital workflows with:
- Enhanced visualization for optimized
patient experience, with higher brightness for clearer and more
vivid images, and a fully integrated 3D intraoral camera**.
- Faster, seamless scanning: 20
percent less waiting time for scans to process***.
- Future AI-based features.
- The iTero Element 5D Plus imaging
system includes NIRI technology, which aids in the detection of
interproximal caries. The iTero Element 5D Plus Lite imaging system
allows for easy NIRI activation via a software
upgrade.
Dr. Chad Duplantis, a dentist in Fort Worth, Texas who
participated in the iTero Element Plus Series limited market
release said, “The continued innovation that Align brings with each
iTero Element scanner elevates the standard of care that I am able
to provide to my patients. The iTero Element 5D Plus imaging system
allows me to be more productive with increased scanning speed, as
well as improve patient communication and treatment conversion with
the advanced visualization capabilities.”
The iTero Element Plus Series cart configuration is commercially
available in the United States, Canada, European Union countries,
Norway, Switzerland, United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, Hong
Kong, and India with availability expected in other markets
throughout 2021 and 2022. The iTero Element Plus Series mobile
