The iTero Element 5D, released just last year, has already broken the model for digital intraoral scanning technology, and is poised to empower dentists and dental specialists to elevate their practice capabilities to an entirely new level.
This is a snapshot of what these groundbreaking intraoral scanners offer in terms of technology, features and functionality.

The First Intraoral Scanner with NIRI Technology
The iTero Element 5D is the first digital intraoral scanner equipped with near-infrared imaging, also known as NIRI, technology.
This technology, which uses infrared light, not harmful radiation, is not only instrumental in detecting and assessing the surface anatomy of patients’ teeth, but lets you see beneath the surface. Since tooth enamel is transparent to near-infrared wavelengths, the scanner can see below the tooth surface. This technology also aids in interproximal caries detection and assessment – among many other vital capabilities.
Powerful Visualization Capabilities
In addition to NIRI technology that lets you go beyond what the eye can see, the iTero Element 5D is equipped with a wide range of other visualization tools and features.
Like other digital intraoral scanners, the iTero Element 5D is equipped with a powerful visual camera that enables the capture of a patient’s oral surface anatomy in great detail. It goes without saying that this is exceptionally useful for taking 3D digital impressions to be used for making restorative and orthodontic appliances.
The Element 5D also allows for treatment progress assessment, thanks to iTero TimeLapse technology that lets you easily compare scans and visualize the progress of a course of treatment. This scanner is also equipped with advanced analytical instruments like its occlusal clearance tool.
Unrivalled Speed
With a digital intraoral scanner like the iTero Element 5D, you can capture full-arch scans in as little as a minute. That equates to less chair time for the patient, less discomfort when compared to taking conventional physical impressions, and a faster turnaround for you, enabling much more efficient workflows.
Armed with this efficiency and speed, you can revolutionize your practice workflows by streamlining workflows, minimizing wasted time and downtime, and improving the efficiency of treatment while upholding a high standard of care with a lesser chance of the risk of retreatment as a result of inaccurate physical impressions.
Compatibility with Invisalign
Another great thing about iTero scanners like the Element 5D is their compatibility with Invisalign clear aligners. The Element 5D, specifically, is equipped with an Invisalign Outcome Simulator, as well as robust Invisalign Progress Assessment software that lets you closely track Invisalign treatment progress.
Save 30% to 50% on iTero Element Scanners
When you purchase a certified pre-owned iTero Element scanner like the 5D from Renew Digital, you can save anywhere from 30% to 50% off the price of the new system. Plus, Renew Digital sells the scanner with the laptop and next generation scanning wand for the same price as the Element Flex – just $9,995.
In addition, they support these scanners as though new and will work with your staff through training to shorten the learning curve associated with adopting new imaging technology. For more information, visit their website or contact them today.
