## Understanding the Certified Pre-Owned iTero® Program Available Through Renew Digital

If you've researched purchasing an iTero scanner, you've probably encountered more than just the price of the scanner itself.

There may also be ongoing costs to consider.

That's why one of the most common questions we receive about the Certified Pre-Owned iTero Element 5D from Renew Digital is:

***“How can your iTero have no monthly fees?”***

It's a fair question—and the answer starts with understanding where our scanners come from.

Renew Digital isn't simply buying used iTero scanners on the secondary market and reselling them. **We've been an authorized dealer for the iTero Certified Pre-Owned program for more than five years**, giving dental practices another way to access iTero technology without purchasing a brand-new scanner.

Here's how the program works and why the economics can look so different.

## First, What Is a Certified Pre-Owned iTero Element 5D?

There's an important distinction between a **used scanner** and an **iTero Certified Pre-Owned scanner**.

The CPO iTero Element 5D scanners available through Renew Digital are part of an authorized Certified Pre-Owned program.

That distinction matters.

When you're considering a scanner that's going to become part of your everyday clinical workflow, you want to know where it came from, how it was sourced, and who is standing behind the purchase.

Align Technologies, the company behind the iTero brand, approached Renew Digital over five years ago to partner and help grow their CPO program.

As an established authority in the dental CPO space, partnering with Renew Digital was a way to help practices across the country purchase iTero scanners through this alternative ownership path.

## So, How Are There No Monthly Fees?

When you purchase a Certified Pre-Owned iTero Element 5D through Renew Digital, your first year includes both **warranty coverage, myiTero software subscription and Invisalign® access.**

That means you're not simply purchasing a used scanner and being left to figure out the software and support on your own. You begin with an active software subscription and warranty coverage as part of your CPO package.

During that first year, you'll also have access to important iTero capabilities including **Invisalign case submission and the Invisalign Outcome Simulator**, helping you incorporate the scanner into both your everyday digital workflow and Invisalign consultations.

So where does the “no monthly fees” part come in?

**After the first year, there is no requirement to continue paying subscription fees simply to maintain access to your scanner.**

If you choose not to renew the software subscription after the included first year, you can continue using your iTero Element 5D and retain the ability to submit cases to Invisalign.

That distinction is important.

Some practices may choose to continue with additional subscription or support options based on the features and coverage they want. But you're not purchasing a scanner that becomes unusable simply because you decide not to continue paying a recurring software fee.

## Why the iTero Element 5D Is Still So Popular

The iTero Element 5D remains an attractive scanner because it combines digital impressions with a workflow that many dental and orthodontic practices already know.

For general dentists, it can support digital workflows for restorative dentistry and patient communication.

For Invisalign providers, the value is even more obvious.

The scanner fits directly into the Invisalign ecosystem, allowing practices to capture digital impressions and submit Invisalign cases without returning to conventional impression workflows.

The Invisalign Outcome Simulator can also be a valuable consultation tool, helping patients visualize a potential orthodontic outcome and making the conversation around treatment more engaging and understandable.

For practices that want iTero and Invisalign integration without making the investment required for the newest scanner generation, a CPO Element 5D can offer a particularly attractive middle ground.

## No Required Monthly Fee Changes the Ownership Equation

When comparing intraoral scanners, it's easy to focus exclusively on purchase price.

But the number that really matters is the **total cost of ownership**.

Imagine owning a scanner for five years. Even a seemingly manageable monthly subscription can become a significant expense when multiplied across 60 months.

That's why practices should ask several questions before buying any scanner:

- What is included in the initial purchase?
- How long is the warranty?
- Is software included?
- Are there mandatory subscriptions?
- What happens if I stop paying for the subscription?
- Can I still use the scanner?
- Are there fees associated with the workflows I use most?
- What will this scanner realistically cost me over five years?

The CPO iTero Element 5D can be particularly compelling when you look at it through that lens.

You're reducing the initial acquisition cost by purchasing Certified Pre-Owned, receiving the first year of warranty and software subscription, and avoiding a requirement to continue paying recurring fees simply to keep using the scanner after that first year.

## What Happens After the First Year?

At the end of your included first year, you have a decision to make.

Depending on your practice and the features or coverage you want, you may decide that continuing with available subscription or support options makes sense.

Or you may decide that you simply want to continue using the scanner without an ongoing software subscription.

**You aren't required to pay a monthly fee just to maintain access to the scanner and continue submitting Invisalign cases.**

For practices trying to control overhead, that flexibility can make a major difference.

Rather than treating a scanner as another permanent monthly bill, you can evaluate the available options based on what actually provides value to your practice.

## Why Buy Your CPO iTero From Renew Digital?

Renew Digital has specialized in Certified Pre-Owned dental technology for years, and we've been an authorized dealer for the iTero CPO program for more than five years.

That experience matters because purchasing an intraoral scanner involves more than finding a low price online.

You need to understand:

**What exactly am I buying? What software is included? What warranty do I receive? Can I submit Invisalign cases? What happens after my first year? Who do I call if I have questions?**

Our goal is to make those answers clear before you buy.

It's the same philosophy we've applied to Certified Pre-Owned dental imaging equipment: give practices access to proven technology at a better value while providing the support and expertise needed to make the investment confidently.

## Is a CPO iTero Element 5D Right for Your Practice?

The newest scanner isn't automatically the right scanner for every dental practice.

If your priorities include entering the iTero ecosystem, submitting Invisalign cases, eliminating conventional impressions from more of your workflows, and controlling your long-term technology costs, the CPO iTero Element 5D deserves serious consideration.

You get a proven iTero platform at a Certified Pre-Owned price, with the first year of warranty and software subscription included.

And when that first year ends?

**You aren't required to keep paying monthly subscription fees just to continue using your scanner and submitting Invisalign cases.**

That's the part of the CPO iTero story that can make the long-term economics so compelling.
