No
The summary describes a mechanical air-powered scaler and does not mention any AI or ML components or functionalities.
Yes
The device is used for dental cleaning and periodontal therapy, which are therapeutic interventions aimed at maintaining or restoring oral health by removing calculus deposits from teeth.
No
The device is described as an air-powered scaler used for removing calculus deposits from teeth during dental cleaning and periodontal therapy, which is a treatment function, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device description explicitly mentions hardware components like a handpiece, scaler tip, tubes, and connections to a dental unit, indicating it is a physical device, not software-only.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to remove calculus deposits from teeth during dental cleaning and periodontal therapy. This is a therapeutic and mechanical action performed directly on the patient's teeth.
- Device Description: The description details a dental handpiece scaler that uses air and water to vibrate a tip for calculus removal. This is a physical process.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of:
- Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.).
- Providing diagnostic information about a disease or condition.
- Using reagents or assays.
IVD devices are used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The Air Solfy performs a physical procedure on the teeth, not an analysis of a biological sample for diagnostic purposes.

Air Solfy covered by this submission is substantially equivalent to other legally marketed device. Specifically, Air Solfy is substantially equivalent to the Siroair L air marketed do from Sirona dental syatem , Inc(K#033812). Air Solfy has similar general seater "from Birona contraciples of operation, and similar technological characteristics as the previously cleared predicate device, Siroair L air scaler.
Although we cannot compare specifications of them minutely as we have not obtained Andrough Tre Sailfor sons of Siroair L, but we are able to figure out the specifications und equivalence as there exists a common international standard on the dental airand equivaliere of ISO 15606. Air Solfy is in compliance with ISO 15606:1999.
The Air Solfy's substantial equivalence to Siroair L is demonstrated at Comparison Summary Table as below.
Although there are minor differences in the characteristics of Air Solfy and its predicate device, these differences do not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness.
