Medit has done a good job of filling a needed market in the clinical practice of dentistry. As more and more dentists embrace the concept of "digital workflows" the market for chair side impression scanners continues to grow. Current industry statistics put the number of in-office acquisition units at between 25-30%.
Like all things in life, there are different levels of financial commitment. This is especially true for younger doctors going into private practice. Many incurred debt loads of $300-400K and when looking at setting up an office, need to work within a strict budget.
Medit is a digital chair side acquisition unit for doctors looking to get a high quality product for a more affordable price point. The company has done a tremendous job with i700 scanner. Now the company has announced the availability of the i700 wireless.
The new scanner is based on the i700 wired hardware and offers the same high quality scans that can be obtained by its wired little brother.
One of the problems with any wired scanner is, of course, the cord. Often the cord is thick and heavy which creates pull on the operator's hand. Removing the wire allows for better access and more efficient scanning.
I am currently trying to get my hands on one from the company to perform an evaluation so that I can give you all an actual hands-on evaluation. If that happens, I'll be sure to let you know.
In the meantime, if you are interested in owning one or simply want to know more, follow this link to the website.
