Midmark Dental Delivery Systems are intended to provide dental professionals with low voltage electric, air, and water to operate dental handpieces, syringes, and accessories during dental examinations and procedures.
Midmark Assistant's Delivery Systems are intended to provide dental professionals with air, water, and suction to operate dental handpieces, syringes, and accessories during dental examinations and procedures.
The Midmark Dental Delivery System encompasses two types of dental units: Dental Delivery Systems and Assistant's Delivery Systems.
The Dental Delivery System is a workstation for the dental clinical space that provides air, water and electrical power for the operation of dental instruments. The system has two models with three mounting options that can provide instrument positioning for right-handed and left-handed clinicians practicing to the patient's side or for clinicians practicing at the 12 o'clock position. The DS-1100-001 model mounts to the base of the Midmark Dental Chair. This model has a combination of swing arms and a flex arm providing both horizontal and vertical positioning of the delivery unit. The DS-1200-001 model mounts to a cabinet or column base and also includes an Assistant's Delivery System. The cabinet mount has a combination of swing arms providing horizontal positioning of the delivery unit to either side of a clinician practicing behind the patient at the 12 o'clock position. The adjustable column mount option that connects to a cabinet adds vertical positioning adjustment to the DS-1200-001.
The Dental Delivery System contains an air and water control manifold designed to route coolant air, drive air, and water to the active dental handpiece. This manifold consists of a pneumatically actuated diaphragm mechanism and an integrated air and water distribution block. When handpieces are docked in their respective instrument holders, air pressure in the handpiece line applies force to the diaphragm within the manifold, closing the associated air ports and preventing air and water flow. When a handpiece is undocked from its holder, a valve within the holder releases the air pressure against the diaphragm. When the foot control is activated, drive and coolant air pressures overcome the diaphragm, opening the previously closed air port. The foot control activation simultaneously sends a pneumatic signal to open the corresponding water valve within the manifold assembly. As a result, the drive air, coolant air, and coolant water are able to flow through the distribution pathways to the undocked handpiece. Returning the handpiece to its holder triggers the holder's valve mechanism to re-pressurize the diaphragm, re-closing the air and water distribution pathways.
The Assistant's Delivery System is a workstation for the dental clinical space that provides air, water, and vacuum for the operation of dental instruments. The ADS-1100-001 model mounts to the head end of the Midmark Dental Chair. A junction box located at the foot end of the chair base provides a contained space for the connection of the Assistant's Delivery System to air, water, and vacuum sources. The ADS-1200-001 mounts to a Midmark cabinet base. The DS-1200-001 Assistant's Delivery System mounts on a movable arm which is common to the Dental Delivery System. The Assistant's Delivery System mounts to the lower side of its supporting arm and the Dental Delivery System mounts to the upper side of the arm allowing both to pivot independently for positioning of the instruments to the clinician. The cabinetry base has a space for the connection of the Assistant's Delivery System to air, water, and vacuum sources.

Regulation Name: Dental Operative Unit And Accessories
Regulatory Class: Class I, reserved
Product Code: EIA
Dated: October 2, 2025
Received: October 3, 2025
Dear Rachel Schwieterman:
We have reviewed your section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database available at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Additional information about changes that may require a new premarket notification are provided in the FDA guidance documents entitled "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99812/download) and "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Software Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99785/download).
Your device is also subject to, among other requirements, the Quality System (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820), which includes, but is not limited to, 21 CFR 820.30, Design controls; 21 CFR 820.90, Nonconforming product; and 21 CFR 820.100, Corrective and preventive action. Please note that regardless of whether a change requires premarket review, the QS regulation requires device manufacturers to review and approve changes to device design and production (21 CFR 820.30 and 21 CFR 820.70) and document changes and approvals in the device master record (21 CFR 820.181).
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR Part 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reporting-combination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR Parts 1000-1050.
All medical devices, including Class I and unclassified devices and combination product device constituent parts are required to be in compliance with the final Unique Device Identification System rule ("UDI Rule"). The UDI Rule requires, among other things, that a device bear a unique device identifier (UDI) on its label and package (21 CFR 801.20(a)) unless an exception or alternative applies (21 CFR 801.20(b)) and that the dates on the device label be formatted in accordance with 21 CFR 801.18. The UDI Rule (21 CFR 830.300(a) and 830.320(b)) also requires that certain information be submitted to the Global Unique Device Identification Database (GUDID) (21 CFR Part 830 Subpart E). For additional information on these requirements, please see the UDI System webpage at https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/device-advice-comprehensive-regulatory-assistance/unique-device-identification-system-udi-system.
Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR 807.97).
