Axsys Dental Solutions adds intraoral scanner to product portfolio

Further expanding its portfolio of products, Axsys Dental Solutions, a leading supplier of digital dental manufacturing solutions, has entered into an agreement with Medit to distribute their new i500 intraoral scanner.

Costing $18,000 with no license fees, the i500 uses a high-speed dual camera system for fast, precise photogrammetry, and it's powderless and lightweight with a fine tip for ease of use and patient comfort. It uses an open CAD/CAM system, meaning operators can export STL files out of the MeditLINK management software and instantly share them with the dental lab. They can also transfer files and track progress throughout the digital workflow.

Thanks to its intelligent scan detecting algorithm, the i500 is also designed to easily pick up where it left off if the scanning process is interrupted, making for a smoother scanning experience. The i500 is engineered to take rapid, video-based scans, and its smart technology means its colored scans can distinguish between soft tissue, plaque and tooth enamel with razor-sharp precision across the full arch.

“We diligently researched intraoral scanners and found the Medit i500 meets all of our stringent requirements for speed, flexibility, accuracy and reliability at a price that is affordable and accessible to all,” states Steve Braykovich, president of Axsys Incorporated. “Its impressive speed and powderless system shortens turnaround time for remarkable increases in productivity - and it clearly stands out as the most the most accurate cross arch IOS that we have investigated.
