I ordered a VHF N4+ from CadRay. About two weeks after the order was placed, they called me up and said, “VHF just got an exclusive with “The Big Boys” so they are cutting ties with all the little independent distributors. They just called us, and we just found out. What this means is that we won’t be able to provide you service after purchasing the VHF mill that you just bought.”
Now, they could have just left it at that. They could have said, “Sorry, it’s out of our hands.” They could have said, “We appreciate your business, but it’s not our fault.” They could have said, “That’s the way the cookie crumbles.”
But they didn’t.
Frank Weinstein calls me up and tells me that they want to make this right, so they are going to hook me up with a brand new Imes Coritec One+ for the same price as the VHF. The Coritec One+ is like the Mercedes of mills for in-office. This is the new model that just barely came out. It is a 5 axis mill. It does wet and dry milling. It does blocks and pucks. It mills all materials know to man, including Vibranium. It can also fly the space shuttle, and make all your wishes and dreams come true. It’s that good. It came with the laptop, Exocad, all the tools, and all the bells and whistles. It came fully loaded. It came white glove delivered to my office. It came with in office training. It came with the extra bur package. It came with everything and the kitchen sink.
So, I paid 36k for a mill, and because of something that was not Cad-Rays fault, they ended up giving me a 60k mill for the same price.
In the words of the great Tony Stark: “That’s how Dad did it. That’s how Cad-Ray does it. And it’s worked out pretty well so far.”
Thank you Frank Weinstein and Armen Mirzayan for having outstanding customer service and going the extra mile every time.read less - 4/02/2021

I needed to replace my Omnicam because the computer hardware was old and not able to keep up with the software upgrades. The computer upgrade costs from Sirona were cost-prohibitive (another reason why the Medit is so good) and I wasn't about to make the same mistake twice and replace it with another system from Sirona. I was a bit unsure about making a big switch but after speaking with Nick Statly at Cad-Ray, he eliminated all of my reservations and I ordered it. I've used it for the past week and love it. Setting it up and getting it running was simple. I would not describe this as a do it yourself process, it's much easier. If you can make a cup of coffee you can set the scanner up and start making excellent scans. All one needs to do is watch the very well laid out and easy to follow videos and save a lot of money. The image quality and ease of use hands down beats the Omnicam. Also during the current pandemic, I really feel better about being able to cold sterlize the tips vs the omnicam's just "wiping down."

The clash of the titans are in full effect. We are not smart enough to understand all the dynamics of patented software and hardware. While we let the manufacturers sort it out, we wanted to demonstrate how the new mandibular jaw movements are captured in Meditlink
Many scanners limit the number of scans you can take on a patient. This becomes cumbersome when you want to image pre-existing conditions, tissue scans for implantology, and other advanced needs
With version 3.0 in Meditlink software, launched in October of 2022, you can import or scan multiple models in the same patient chart
In this presentation we detail the implant suprastructure identification system where an existing abutment is removed and scanned extra-orally to capture the margins readily after the abutment is anodized
In April of 2022, Medit launched its wireless version of the i700 intra-oral scanner. We’ve been testing it ever since and are impressed with the range that it has. You want to be within 10 meters but more importantly you want to have clear line of site from the scanner to the hub. Much like anything else that is wireless, the further you are from the receiver the more difficult it is to maintain connection. In this video we demonstrate the distance at which you can maintain good connectivity.
After connectivity we tested its ergonomics. Some users get frustrated with tangled cords that are teathered to the laptop computer. This is a great solution and there is not much weight added to the device making it very easy to handle
In this video we show the layout of the battery pack, the scanner, and the dimensions of the battery pack. It is very easy to remove them and swap them with fully charged nodes.
In this video we had the chance to scan a full set of upper and lower temporaries. You can see all the great features of the scanner in action where we capture the maxilla and mandible in little time.
the patient was sedated and intubated for the case so we could not keep track of the bite. Instead, we imaged all 30 prepared teeth and used medit compare / design to digitally mount them to the wax ups. In the link provided you can download the models and relate them to each other […]
To access this page and view the premium content and support, you must either be a customer of CAD-Ray or purchase CAD-Ray Membership.
Medit Compare, now called Medit Design, now has a boolean cut feature that lets you extract a temporary shell model from wax up or mock up model and prep model for easy and quick designs without painful margin marking on multiple units
Medit’s software allows you to remove and pre-existing abutment and scan it outside the mouth. This allows you to find your margins without ever having to displace the tissue or reach hemostasis. Important matters to keep in mind with workflow
You must fill out the Rx form correctly and identify the abutment location
You must take the abutment scan at first in the right catalog box (upper jaw or lower jaw)
You must take the tibase / abutment outside the mouth and scan it under Abutment Registration Feature
In this video, we show how you to capture the healing abutment, the tissue profile after the abutment is removed, and then we image the scanbody while utilizing the AI feature of the Medit i700 to pick up all the data from the scanbody by matching the STL to the physical one during the scan
With second molars, you should always be on the look out for not just the jaw settling, if you remove the first point of contact, but also with the temporary step forcing the tooth to tip towards the distal, if there is no third molar to stop its tilting.
In this case, a doctor was trying to seat a second molar crown he had just prepped a few weeks prior. There was an open contact and he could not ascertain the reason for this. He did take a second impression digitally so we had the chance to merge the two models and look for discreptancies between the preps. This video shows how the comparison of those two steps in Medit Compare
Medit Orthodontic Simulation application allows you to segment out individual teeth from patient scans into an stl format that you can use as a template for smile design wax-ups. You have to watch the vide for it to make sense
We’ve digitized the Vita 3D shade guide to help with color identification. The same Medit scanner was used to scan the tabs and then this digital file was created. the assumption is that the same camera and light will hit natural dentition and the net effect will be the same. Use at your own risk.
Still not a single article published that says Medit ios is a good scanner ! its just been user driven for 3 years now.
it’s a good thing, because the world just changed. it is irresponsible to extrapolate research done outside the mouth on stone models or impressions into clinical significance with intra-oral scanning. There are parameters that are impossible to quantify like focal distance throughout the scan (unlike desktop scanners with known focal distances), the codes use to do the algorithms, the scan patterns, and also how light is treated by enamel, dentin, and restored materials.
i can’t believe people still use terms like trueness and accuracy when they really don’t even exist when you scan intra-orally. Like analog impressions, it is impossible to judge digital impression accuracy LIVE while it is happening.
Enter Medit! There are a few distinct ways to demonstrate an accurate scan live while it is happening. One way is to import a geometric shape that doesn’t alter its form while models are being rendered. That’s what’s demonstrated here. To my knowledge no one has ever studied this approach because no other camera lets you do this. i did see some publications where the authors attached objects like radiographic markers and after it was processed, they could measure that object and see if it distorted or not, but nothing at this level.
The following information is from the The American Board of Orthodontics. We preview how the Medit Ortho Simulation and Model Builder can satisfy their criteria
Medit has many free applications, including Smile Analysis, Orthodontic Simulation, and now, Medit Model Builder
Adding bases has been a feature for a while but as usual, Medit was quick to respond to its users’ request by expanding the base to including holes for drainage in printing and by allowing us to add support pins to the models. Many people who have printers, whether labs or clinicians, easily lose the proper vertical relationship when they print the models. By adding these pins, it allows you to index the models properly for any finishing work someone may need to do.
Advanced users are unlikely to use this feature for a single unit, but it comes in handy for oral appliances, particularly when they have advanced the jaw to open the airway. Oh, and this app is free and you can use it with models created by any scanner
Here is why the Medit i700 is the best intra-oral scanner on the market if you do any kind of implant restorations. There are so many options and tools that are leap years ahead of other scanners and their software. Medit can automatically identify the scanbody for you so you don’t have to do cartwheels and gymnastics to pick up all of the scanbody. This is in part 1 of the video.
For advanced users, we are sick of dealing with scanbodies and checking to make sure they are seated all the way and not binding on the tissue or bone, so we developed this technique of just scanning the fixture itself. It is not ideal just yet, but it will be the future, as the inside of the fixture is too shiny. i just used some old cerec spray to mask the topography for this demonstration.
oh, and really, no one else can show you how to milk that medit like cad-ray.com can. we use it well beyond what it was intended for and frankly you are wasting your time and money with most others. contact Frank DeLuca, Frank Weinstein, Laura Geney, Nick Statly, Damien Bonner, Jonathan Acker in the US or Milos Gedosev, Mariangela Di Nato, Roddy MacLeod in Europe for more information
This case shows how to relate models to each and maintain their relationships. It features the power of the Medit Compare app that lets you duplicate models, trim them, modify them to your liking. There are some very useful features in this app that can come in very handy
an important matter to remember is the “direction of travel” which is taking models from the Target folder and moving it to relate it to the Reference folder.
All models placed in each folder will maintain their relationships to each other when traveling to connect with the other models. Inverting models will also come in handy for advanced users. You can see the full video and download the case and design along here
This implant was initially placed at the crest of the ridge in 2012. its placement did not allow proper emergence profile and subsequently lost bone around the head of the implant by 2015. The lack of blood flow to the crest of the bone at the cortical plate certainly could have contributed to its demise. By 2015, the bacteria trap forced a new restoration to be placed which also ultimately lead to chronic inflammation due to improper contours. The implant itself was well integrated and the decision was made to remove the top 3-5 mm of the implant and treat it as a cast post and core.
You can see how the Medit i700 was used to mix intra-oral scans with a PVS impression to capture the fixture. Advanced users can utilize the stl of the implant itself to fabricate a post and core digitally.
The post and core and the emax restoration were returned for delivery.
