iTero Lumina Scanner
At Artemis Smiles Orthodontics, we believe that precise technology leads to better results—and a better experience. That’s why we’ve upgraded to the latest in digital scanning technology: the iTero Lumina™ Intraoral Scanner.
This next-generation scanner goes beyond traditional imaging, offering faster, more comfortable, and more accurate scans for patients of all ages. Whether you’re starting Invisalign treatment, braces, or just having a consultation, the iTero Lumina helps us deliver exceptional care from the very first scan.
Why We Use the iTero Lumina™
Photorealistic Scans for Confident Clinical Decisions
The iTero Lumina captures highly detailed, photorealistic 3D images, making it easier for our team to confidently make high-quality clinical decisions. The advanced software and high accuracy mean more precise diagnostics and better treatment planning without relying on traditional intraoral photos.
Faster Scans, Greater Comfort
Scanning is now 2x faster than previous models, thanks to a significantly wider field of view and improved capture distance. This means less time in the chair, minimal mouth maneuvering, and a more comfortable experience. It’s a win-win for efficiency and comfort.
Designed for Patient Engagement
With a 50% smaller wand, the iTero Lumina is built with patient comfort in mind—especially helpful for kids and teens. The stunning 3D visuals not only help us explain treatment options more clearly but also help motivate and engage patients as they watch their smile take shape in real time.
Streamlined Record-Keeping & Invisalign Integration
The iTero Lumina eliminates the need for separate intraoral photos in most cases, simplifying our workflow and expediting Invisalign case submissions. For patients, that means quicker turnaround times and a smoother start to treatment.
At Artemis Smiles, investing in the latest technology isn’t just about innovation—it’s about giving our patients the best possible experience and results. With the iTero Lumina™, we’re proud to offer smarter scanning, faster visits, and more accurate treatment planning—all in a way that keeps you smiling from start to finish.
Invisalign Outcome Simulator
At Artemis Smiles, we’re committed to helping you visualize the possibilities of your smile transformation before you even start treatment. That’s why we use the Invisalign Outcome Simulator, a powerful tool that provides a real-time preview of your potential results with Invisalign. Using digital scans captured by our iTero scanner, the Outcome Simulator creates a 3D model of your current smile and shows how your teeth will shift and align throughout the course of treatment. In just a few minutes, you can see a side-by-side comparison of your current smile and your projected outcome, giving you a clear view of what Invisalign can achieve.
The Invisalign Outcome Simulator empowers you to make informed decisions about your treatment, offering insight into the effectiveness of aligners for your specific alignment goals. This simulation allows you to set realistic expectations and see firsthand how Invisalign can improve your smile, bite, and overall dental health. At Artemis Smiles, we’re excited to use the Invisalign Outcome Simulator to make your journey more engaging, transparent, and inspiring from the very start.

Planmeca ProMax® 3D X-Rays
At Artemis Smiles Orthodontics, accurate diagnosis is the key to successful treatment—and that starts with seeing the full picture. That’s why we use the Planmeca ProMax® 3D imaging system, one of the most advanced dental imaging technologies available today.
What Makes 3D X-Rays Different from Traditional X-Rays?
Traditional dental X-rays give us flat, two-dimensional images of your teeth and jaw. While helpful, they can sometimes miss important details—especially when it comes to bone structure, tooth positioning, or hidden issues beneath the surface.
The Planmeca ProMax®, on the other hand, captures full 3D images of your entire oral and facial anatomy. This allows us to:
- View your teeth, roots, jawbones, and sinuses from multiple angles
- Detect problems that may not show up on regular X-rays
- Create more accurate and customized treatment plans
With 3D imaging, we’re not guessing—we’re working with precise data tailored to your unique anatomy.
Why 3D X-Rays Matter for Orthodontics
Whether you’re getting braces, Invisalign, or early orthodontic care, understanding exactly how your teeth and jaw are positioned is critical. With Planmeca ProMax, we can:
- Spot issues early, including impacted teeth, bone irregularities, or airway concerns
- Plan with precision, ensuring the right movements and timing for your treatment
- Reduce surprises during treatment by identifying challenges before they start
Plus, the process is quick, comfortable, and uses low radiation levels, making it safe for kids, teens, and adults alike.
At Artemis Smiles, we’re committed to using the most advanced tools available to provide smarter diagnoses, better treatment, and outstanding results. With 3D imaging from Planmeca ProMax, you can trust that your care is built on clarity, accuracy, and confidence.
