Intended Use:

The device has the same intended use as the predicate and reference device but includes a change in indications from prescription to over-the-counter (OTC) use. The change in indications comparing to the predicate device, Accusil (K213244) and reference device, Zhengzhou Huaer Impression (putty) (K201483) is supported by the clinical validation study and human factor/usability engineering performance data summarized below.

Technological Features:

The Technological Features (i.e., design, material, chemical composition, principle of operation, energy source, etc.) of the Remi Impression Material is identical to the predicate device. There is no difference between the subject and predicate device thus displaying the substantial equivalence of the subject device.

Performance Testing

There are no formulation/technological changes to the Remi Impression Material subject device vs. the legally marketed Zhengzhou Huaer Impression Material (putty) (K201483) reference device.

Human Factors Testing:

The Remi OTC Impression Kit Human Factors Engineering/Usability Study validation study was designed to demonstrate that untrained lay adults can safely and effectively use the kit at home relying solely on the provided labeling. The study employed an all-comers, consecutive enrollment design in which participants first self-selected using the kit's Instructions for Use, then were independently confirmed as suitable candidates by a physician investigator. Critical tasks evaluated included self-selection, tray sizing, putty mixing, tray loading and seating, maintaining a bite for five minutes, tray removal, and packaging and return of impressions. No professional training or real-time coaching was provided during impression-taking, consistent with the intended OTC home-use environment.

All 35 enrolled participants correctly self-selected as appropriate candidates (100%), with no instances of incorrect self-inclusion or self-exclusion. A minor labeling clarification was identified when 5 participants (14.3%) initially misinterpreted a question about restorative dental work; this was proactively addressed by updating the contraindication language in the IFU. Critical tasks were successfully completed across the study population, with only one subject deviating from the intended tray-use workflow — a recoverable error that was self-corrected without harm. No adverse events occurred throughout the study, and all residual risks were classified as Acceptable or ALARP per the Use-Related Risk Analysis.

Clinical Study

This clinical study evaluated whether at-home dental impressions taken by laypersons using an over-the-counter impression kit produce nightguards of equivalent fit and quality to those made from clinician-collected impressions. The prospective, single-arm, blinded study enrolled 30 subjects across two clinical sites, two investigators, and one independent dentist reviewer. Each subject provided both a self-taken and a dentist-taken impression, and two nightguards were fabricated from each pair — with both subjects and clinicians blinded to the impression source during all fit evaluations. Qualitative evaluation and Quantitative (over 9 points) dimensional analysis were performed on all impressions, 3D models, and nightguards comparing the impressions taken by the dentist to the study subjects.

The results were strongly positive across all endpoints. Quantitatively, the mean dimensional difference between at-home and in-office impressions was only -0.001 mm, with 95% limits of agreement ranging from -0.255 mm to +0.253 mm — well within the pre-defined clinical

Page 13

tolerance of ±0.30 mm. A Pearson correlation coefficient of 0.99998 confirmed agreement between the two methods. Qualitatively, physicians rated 100% of all nightguards as "A: Excellent Fit," regardless of impression source. Subject ratings were slightly more variable but remained positive, with no nightguard receiving an "F" (unacceptable) rating. No adverse events were reported throughout the study.

The study concluded that OTC impression kits are a clinically acceptable, safe, and effective means for fabricating custom nightguards comparable in quality to those produced from professional impressions — offering a practical alternative for individuals facing cost or access barriers to traditional dental care.
