The rising demand for Medit scanners among dental and specialty practices stems from the company’s mission to provide an “easy entry to digital dentistry.” Touting no monthly subscription fees, on top of being one of the most affordable scanners on the market, Medit scanners have lived up to the hype by also being able to deliver in terms of performance.
Doctors are making the investment in Medit scanners to bring value to their practice, helping them maintain digital patient records, maximize their patients’ comfort, and easily submit records to mills, dental labs, 3D printers, etc. Plus, many doctors are seeing greater treatment acceptance, by being able to show their patients a full 3D scan of their mouth as an effective tool for patient education.
Many brands, like 3Shape, Allied Star and many more offer competing intraoral scanners, making it a crowded marketplace. With a wide variety of brands at a range of price points, it can be difficult to decide which scanner will be best for your practice based on performance, features and overall value.
Today, we’re sharing the average price you can expect to pay for a Medit scanner, along with some of the ways Medit drives value to outpace their competition.
Medit launched its first intraoral scanner, the Medit i500, in 2018 - along with its powerful Medit Link software. Since then, they’ve launched two new generations of scanners, the Medit i600 and Medit i700 (available as wired or wireless versions).
Every Medit scanner can be used for comprehensive orthodontic, restorative and implant workflows. Where each model differs is the feature set, with upgraded offerings with each evolution.
The upfront price you can expect to pay for a new Medit scanner is between $10,000-$20,000 based on selected features. Depending on where you purchase, confirm whether or not the price you’ll pay comes with a laptop, accessories and/or warranty to sum up your total cost of ownership.
Looking at the average price other doctors paid to invest in a Medit intraoral scanner, you may be thinking about how quickly you’ll see a return on your investment. Think about how greatly increased treatment acceptance and patient comfort can impact your bottom line. Then, consider your cost savings over traditional impressions, including material costs, physical storage space, and transportation to labs and referrals.
In sum, it may be more affordable and more efficient to use an intraoral scanner in the long-term.
One of the main ways Medit scanners differentiate their value proposition from other brands is through their features. Here’s a breakdown of each of the Medit models and their associated features.
The software used with your intraoral scanner matters because software powers the scanner and is critical for image acquisition and treatment planning. This will directly impact the performance you’ll get from your scanner. The ideal scanner will have no lag time between scanning and loading images on the screen.
Early in the foundation of the company, Medit placed a lot of emphasis on the value you’ll get from their software, not only for improving the scanning speed but also becoming a full resource for your practice.
Medit Link is the exclusive software to operate Medit scanners. This software does not require a monthly subscription fee to use, and is still highly rated in ease-of-use and dependability by doctors we speak with. Medit developed Medit Link to have a comfortable balance of features and functions, useful for nearly any dental or specialty purpose.
