Say goodbye to uncomfortable bite molds and hello to swift and accurate digital scans. With our Medit scanner, we can plan your treatment effortlessly and comfortably.

The Medit Scanner

The Medit Scanner allows us to take a highly accurate digital impression of your smile. The new technology completely eliminates the tray and putty impressions, so you don’t have to worry about gagging or discomfort.

The old technique was incredibly unpleasant and frequently resulted in taking multiple rounds of impressions that could be rejected, broken, or misplaced. The scanner ensures a more accurate impression from the start, resulting in improved treatment and a more comfortable patient experience.

Digital impressions give you the ability to see your teeth instantly in 3D, improving communication during the consultation and treatment process.

How do Medit Scanner work?

The Medit Scanner digitally captures the structure of the teeth and gums using the latest optical technology. The scanner is a compact, hand-held wand. Once we begin the scanning process, it can be stopped and started as many times as necessary.

Your mouth is scanned with a radiation-free laser and, in as little as two to three minutes, the laser renders a digitally perfect, 3D impression of your teeth and soft tissue structures.

Through digital software, you’ll be able to follow the progress of the scans, including a 3D model of your teeth on our computer screen. The Medit Scanner can be used for any restorative treatment, as well as orthodontic treatments such as clear aligners.
