The dental assistant was taking my impressions using the iTero scanner. During the part where they scanned my bite, I think I may have shifted my teeth slightly to accommodate the wand. Is it possible this may have messed up the scan and created a double impression or a shifted bite? Would the software flag an error if movement occurred during scanning? The aligners have been ordered, however, I don't want this to put me on a wrong course for treatment if the scan was bad.
