Introduction

About this Operation Manual

The iTero Element system is delivered as a proprietary, PC-based workstation for performing
intra oral scans in the doctor's office. This Operation Manual describes how to boot and shut
down the system, how to correctly handle the Scanning Unit/Wand and cable, and how to
clean the Scanning Unit and replace its sleeves between patients.

Intended Use

iTero Element is an optical impression system (CAD/CAM) used to record the topographical
images of teeth and oral tissue. Data generated from iTero may be used in conjunction with
the production of dental devices (e.g., aligners, braces, appliances, etc.) and accessories.
iTero Element software is used with the iTero Element scanner in capturing 3D digital
impressions of teeth, oral soft tissue and structures, and bite relationship. The software
controls the processing of the data, facilitating the integration of data, and exporting of the
data for CAD/CAM fabrication of dental restorations, Orthodontic devices, abutments, and
accessories. In addition to scan data, various patient and case information can be imported/
exported or used for simulation purposes. Other functions are available for verification and
service of the system and to serve as an order management tool.

Benefits of the iTero Element System

The iTero Element system provides important advantages over existing crown-production
methods, Including powder-free scanning, greater crown-production accuracy, and
immediate feedback during the scanning process.
