Medit — i900, i700 & i600 Intraoral Scanners

Medit is a South Korean digital-dentistry company best known for its open-ecosystem intraoral scanners and the free Medit Link software platform. This page is a neutral manufacturer profile — the company and ownership, the current i900 / i700 / i600 lineup, the open file workflow, regulatory status, and the competitive claims Medit themselves publish. Facts are drawn from Medit's own documentation and independent review coverage; see citations after each section.

About Medit

Medit built its reputation in dentistry on an open approach: scans export in standard mesh formats and the Medit Link platform is offered without a mandatory per-scan subscription, which is a large part of why Medit gained significant market share among cost-conscious practices. Earlier investors included Unison Capital and Premier Partners; the private-equity firm MBK Partners acquired a controlling stake in December 2022. In 2025 Medit also expanded into orthodontics and refreshed its scanner lineup.

Current Intraoral Scanner Lineup

⚠️ Positioning below is summarized from Medit's materials and independent reviews. Confirm current specs, model availability, and regional regulatory clearance with Medit before purchase or clinical use.

The i500 (2018) was Medit's original scanner and may still be in service in some practices. All current models feed into the same Medit Link ecosystem.

What Medit Claims as Advantages

The following are positions Medit publishes on its own materials. We list them as Medit frames them — 3DL has not independently benchmarked these claims, and clinicians should evaluate against their own needs.

• Open ecosystem. Medit positions its scanners as open — scans export in standard mesh formats for use with any compatible lab or design software, rather than a locked, proprietary pipeline.
• No mandatory subscription. Medit markets the Medit Link platform and core apps as available without a required per-scan or monthly scanning subscription — a frequent reason practices cite for choosing Medit.
• Medit Link + app store. A cloud platform for case management, collaboration, and add-on dental apps that integrate with labs and other services.
• i900 speed and ergonomics. Medit positions the i900 as its fastest scanner, with a slim, lightweight body, a large tip, and a wide field of view.
• Full range by budget. A lineup spanning entry (i600) to flagship (i900), including a wireless option (i700 Wireless).

Regulatory & Availability

Intraoral scanners are regulated in the U.S. by the FDA as Class II medical devices. Medit scanners are widely sold in the United States, which requires a valid FDA 510(k) clearance for each marketed model. 3DL has not asserted a specific 510(k) number here; clinicians can verify the current U.S. clearance for a given Medit model directly in the FDA's public 510(k) database, and confirm regional availability with Medit or an authorized reseller.

Software & Files (Medit Link)

Medit scanners run on Medit Link, Medit's cloud platform for capturing, managing, and sharing cases, plus an app store of add-on tools. Medit's open-file approach means scans can be exported and sent to 3DL without a proprietary lock-in. As with any cloud-connected scanner, practices with strict data-residency or HIPAA Business Associate Agreement requirements should confirm Medit's data-handling and BAA terms before storing identifiable patient data.

Working With 3DL on a Medit Workflow

3DL accepts Medit scans through standard digital routes:

• Medit Link export — export the case and upload it through the doctor portal at 3dlmi.com.
• Open mesh files — because Medit exports standard formats, your scans drop straight into 3DL's CAD workflow.
• Implant cases — pair your Medit scan with 3DL component identification for custom abutments and full-arch design.
