A Journal of Dentistry study reports that the iTero Lumina™ scanner produced the highest ratio of acceptable scans against tested intraoral scanners: 99.6% of scans were acceptable, across all testing conditions¹.
That level of precision delivers superior full jaw accuracy², supporting restorations that fit on the first try³, and the capture of even complex arches in one uninterrupted pass. Watch Dr. Andrey Baltaev, from iTero's Clinical Education team, explain how accurate iTero Lumina’s scans truly are in our latest video.

²Based on bench testing conducted using ADA/ANSI 132 standard Model simulating “long distance accuracy (full jaw measurement)” in July 2024. Method: Comparative test to evaluate full arch accuracy (global accuracy), repeatability and reproducibility of intraoral scanners as described in ADA standard 132 [2015]; Sample definition: 3 operators performed 30 repetitive scans with each tested scanner.; Sample size: n=90 (3x30) scans for each scanner tested; Tested scanners: iTero Lumina; Trios 5; CS3800; Medit i700; Allied Star; Results: The accuracy of iTero Lumina is significantly higher than that of all 4 competitors; with a reduction of total error ranging from 0.11% to 0.46%. Accuracy was defined as the accumulated average error + STD of all measurements specified in the standard. Data on file at Align Technology, as of August 26, 2024.
³Based on bench testing conducted in June 2024 according to ADA/ANSI 132 standard requirements for long distance full jaw accuracy (average error =0.03% - 0.24% < 0.25%), crown accuracy (average error =0% - 0.9% < 1%) and inlay accuracy specimens (average error =0% - 0.4% < 1%).
