Intended Use
The DioDent Dental Laser System is intended for incision, excision, ablation, vaporization and/or coagulation of oral soft tissue (including marginal and interdental gingiva and epithelial lining of free gingiva). For the incision, excision, ablation, vaporization and hemostasis of oral soft tissue. Examples: Excisional and incisional biopsies Exposure of unerupted teeth Fibroma removal Frenectomy and frenotomy Gingival troughing for crown impressions Gingivectomy Gingivoplasty Gingival incision and excision Hemostasis Implant recovery Incision and drainage of abscess Leukoplakia Operculectomy Oral papillectomies Pulpotomy Pulpotomy as an adjunt to root canal therapy Reduction of gingival hypertrophy Soft tissue crown lengthening Sucular debridement (removal of diseased or inflamed soft tissue in the periodontal pocket to improve clinical indices including gingival index, gingival bleeding index, probe depth, attachment loss and tooth mobility) Treatment of aphthous ulcers Vestibuloplasty Biopsy incision and excision Lesion (tumor) removal

No
The provided 510(k) summary does not mention AI, ML, or any related technologies in the device description, intended use, or performance studies. The device appears to be a standard dental laser system.

Yes
The device is intended for the incision, excision, ablation, vaporization, and/or coagulation of oral soft tissue, which are therapeutic procedures.

No

The device description focuses on surgical procedures (incision, excision, ablation, vaporization, coagulation) and not on diagnosing conditions.

No

The device is described as a "Dental Laser System" and lists predicate devices that are also laser systems, indicating it is a hardware device.

Based on the provided information, the DioDent Dental Laser System is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes procedures performed directly on oral soft tissue within the patient's mouth (incision, excision, ablation, vaporization, coagulation, hemostasis). IVD devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue samples) outside the body to provide information about a person's health.
  • Anatomical Site: The anatomical site is "oral soft tissue," which is part of the living patient.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples, using reagents, or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory tests.

The DioDent Dental Laser System is a surgical device used for treating oral soft tissue.
