Intended Use

Ensmile Dental Plastic Aligners are indicated for the alignment of teeth during orthodontic treatment of malocclusion.

Device Story

Ensmile is a series of transparent, patient-specific aligners used for orthodontic treatment of malocclusion. Dental professionals create a digital treatment plan; aligners are fabricated via thermoforming of polyurethane plastic. Aligners incorporate attachments to create force points, applying continuous gentle force to teeth to achieve planned movement. Used in clinical settings under professional supervision; patients wear aligners to move teeth incrementally toward a final position. Benefits include improved dental alignment through a series of clear, removable appliances.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Evidence consists of non-clinical performance testing, including biocompatibility (ISO 10993-1: cytotoxicity, sensitization, irritation, acute systemic toxicity, mutagenicity, subacute toxicity) and process flow validation to ensure finished devices match digital software output specifications.

Technological Characteristics

Thermoformed transparent polyurethane plastic aligners. Patient-specific dimensions. Mechanism: continuous gentle force via sequential aligners and attachments. Biocompatibility per ISO 10993-1. Software-driven design process.

Indications for Use

Indicated for the alignment of teeth during orthodontic treatment of malocclusion in patients requiring minor tooth movement.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

The Ensmile is indicated for use in alignment of teeth during orthodontic treatment of malocclusion. #### Technological Characteristics The Ensmile Aligners that are produced have the same technological characteristics as the primary predicate device, in that all the devices are made from commercially available plastic that is thermoformed to create a customized, patient-specific aligners are then used for minor tooth movement by way of continuous gentle force. {4}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/4/Picture/0 description: The image shows the logo for Ensmile Invisible Dental Aligners. The logo features two curved yellow lines above the word "ensmile" in blue. Below "ensmile" is the text "Invisible Dental Aligners" in a smaller blue font. The logo is simple and modern, with a focus on the brand name and product. Ensmile Pvt Ltd 510(k) Summary In both devices, the aligners are created by thermoforming commercially available plastic material. The Ensmile Aligners are thermoformed by Ensmile Pvt Ltd and in the case of the primary predicate device; the aligners are thermoformed by an outside laboratory. The Ensmile Aligner incorporates the use of attachments to create spaces and force points in order to cause minor tooth movement. These force points are located in specific areas and positioned in such a way that they provide a continuous force which slowly dissipates over time on the tooth to be moved for as long as the aligner is worn. #### Performance Data As part of demonstrating safety and effectiveness of Ensmile and in showing substantial equivalence to the primary predicate device that are subject to this 510(k) submission, Ensmile Pvt Ltd completed a number of non-clinical performance tests. Ensmile meets all the requirements for overall design, biocompatibility, and performance results confirming that the design output meets the design inputs and specifications for the device. Ensmile passed all the testing in accordance with internal requirements, national standards, and international standards shown below to support substantial equivalence of the subject device: - Biocompatibility testing per ISO 10993-1 passed cytotoxicity, sensitization, irritation, Acute Systemic Toxicity, Mutagenicity, and Subacute Toxicity for the used thermoforming sheets. - Process Flow validation was performed to ensure that the finished device matches the software output specifications. The output and work model and aligner were tested and compared. Aligners met the specifications of this testing. In all instances, the Ensmile functioned and Biocompatibility Testing, and Process Flow Validation observed was as expected. | Feature | Proposed Device<br>Ensmile | Primary Predicate Device<br>Invisalign System | |----------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | K Number | K222619 | K081960 | | Manufacturer | Ensmile Pvt Ltd | Align Technology, Inc. | | Regulation<br>Number | 21 CFR 872.5470 | 21 CFR 872.5470 | | Device<br>Classification<br>Name | Orthodontic Plastic Bracket | Orthodontic Plastic Bracket | | Product Code | NXC | NXC | | Device Class | Class II | Class II | | Indications for<br>Use | Ensmile is indicated for the alignment<br>of teeth during orthodontic treatment<br>of malocclusion. | The Invisalign System is indicated for<br>the alignment of teeth during<br>orthodontic treatment of malocclusion. | | Feature | Proposed Device | Primary Predicate Device | | K Number | Ensmile<br>K222619 | Invisalign System<br>K081960 | | Device Description | The <b>Ensmile</b> is a sequence of<br>transparent aligners created from a<br>digital orthodontic treatment plan.<br>The <b>Ensmile</b> aligner is fabricated of a<br>transparent thermoformed<br>polyurethane plastic.

Ensmile Pvt Ltd ## 510(k) Summary Ensmile has the same intended uses and similar indications, technological characteristics, Manufacturing Method, Material Used and principles of operation as its primary predicate device. Ensmile is substantial equivalent to the Invisalign System. There are no differences between Ensmile and Invisalign System was defined therefore a performance testing was performed to Ensmile to ensure that patients are receiving the aligners as prescribed by the practitioner to move their teeth as intended (final position). The results of this performance testing are accepted according to acceptance criteria and do not raise any additional concerns. #### Conclusions Ensmile Aligners moves teeth by way of continuous gentle force through a sequence of clear aligners that follow the treatment plan developed by the clinician as does the primary predicate device, Invisalign System. The conclusions drawn from the data included in this submission, demonstrates that the Ensmile Aligner is substantially equivalent to the primary predicate devices cleared under premarket notification K081960 (Primary Predicate Device) in indications for use, design, technological characteristics, mechanism of action, performance, materials and biocompatibility.
