Medit i500 Intraoral Scanner

Description

The Medit i500 Intraoral Scanner is Medit’s earlier-generation chairside digital impression scanner. It captures 3D models of teeth, gums, and bite registration without putty trays, and uses 3D-in-motion video technology with full-colour streaming for video-based scans during routine restorative, implant, and orthodontic case capture in general practice.

The i500 handpiece weighs 280 g, with a compact tip and a comfortable grip designed for chairside maneuverability across long appointments. A single button on the device starts and stops scanning and advances through scan stages, which keeps the chairside workflow simple and reduces software navigation between cases. The compact scanning tip improves access in tight posterior regions and supports patient comfort during longer full-arch scans.

The scanner produces high-resolution 3D full-colour output that makes it easier to read margin lines, undercuts, and the distinction between tooth structure and surrounding soft tissue during case review. The i500 is also usable as a model scanner for dental laboratory workflows, where the same hardware captures stone or plaster models for digital case planning. Sleeves are not included in the standard packaging and are sourced separately based on clinic infection-control protocols.

On Dentalkart, the Medit i500 intraoral scanner is available through the Request Price workflow with competitive India pricing, COD on eligible orders, and pan-India delivery on 100% genuine, warranty-backed equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions

How heavy is the Medit i500 scanner handpiece?

The Medit i500 scanner handpiece weighs 280 g. The body is sized for a comfortable grip and the compact tip improves access in tight posterior regions, which together support single-hand scanning across long appointments without operator fatigue across multi-quadrant or full-arch cases.

Can the Medit i500 be used in a dental laboratory?

Yes, the Medit i500 can be used in a dental laboratory to scan dental models. The same hardware that captures intraoral scans for chairside cases also captures stone or plaster models for digital lab workflows, which makes the i500 a flexible second-life option once a clinic upgrades its primary chairside scanner.

Do sleeves come with the Medit i500?

No, sleeves are not included with the Medit i500 in standard packaging. Sleeves are sourced separately based on the clinic’s infection-control protocol, scanner-tip wrapping policy, and the dental-supply vendor in use. Most clinics combine sleeves with autoclavable scan-tip cycles between patients.

What is the difference between the Medit i500, i600, and i700?

The Medit i500 is the earlier video-based scanner with a single-button workflow at 280 g. The Medit i600 adds 35 FPS capture, 10.9 micron precision, 180-degree reversible tips, and Medit Link cloud workflow. The Medit i700 adds a built-in UV-C LED self-disinfection module, ortho auto tooth segmentation, a remote-control button, and vibration cues for scan continuity.

What scanning technology does the Medit i500 use?

The Medit i500 uses 3D-in-motion video technology for video-based scanning, with full-colour streaming during capture. The output is high-resolution, which supports reading margin lines, undercuts, and soft-tissue boundaries for crown, bridge, implant, and orthodontic case workflows in general practice and dental laboratory use.

Scanning:

• Select the scanning mode based on your patient’s needs (e.g., full-arch, quadrant, or specific tooth).
• Hold the scanner tip and gently insert it into the patient’s mouth.
• Begin scanning by moving the scanner tip in a slow, continuous motion. Maintain steady hand movements for complete coverage.

Monitoring and Visualization:

• Observe the scanning process on your computer screen to ensure complete coverage of the area of interest.

Review and re-scan (if needed):

• If any part of the scan appears incomplete or unclear, consider re-scanning that specific area until you obtain satisfactory images.

Data Processing:

• Allow the software to process the acquired scan data, creating a 3D model.

Analysis and Diagnosis:

• Examine the 3D model on your computer screen to assess the patient’s dental condition and make a diagnosis.

Save or Share:

• Save the scan data for future reference or sharing with other dental professionals if needed.

Clean and sterilize the scanner tip:
