10.1 Comparing previous scans using iTero TimeLapse technology

Patients who are scanned on a regular basis can have their scans analyzed using iTero TimeLapse technology.
iTero TimeLapse technology compares 2 of the patient's previously captured 3D scans to allow visualization of the
changes of the patient's teeth, tooth structure, and oral soft tissues over the period between the scans. For
example, iTero TimeLapse technology can display tooth wear, gingival recession, and tooth movement over the
relevant period.
Note: iTero TimeLapse technology is available for iRecord and orthodontic case types only.
To use iTero TimeLapse technology:
1. Select the patient for whom to create an iTero TimeLapse visualization.
