No
The device description focuses on piezoelectric ultrasound technology and user-controlled settings, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities. The "last settings are memorized" feature is a simple memory function, not indicative of AI/ML.
Yes
The device is described as an ultrasonic scaler with applications in periodontics, endodontics, scaling, and prosthesis, all of which are dental treatments aimed at maintaining or restoring oral health.
No
The device is an ultrasonic scaler used for dental treatments (periodontics, endodontics, scaling, prosthesis) and does not involve diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device description clearly states it is an "ultrasonic scaler" that uses "piezoelectric ultrasound technology to generate mechanical microvibrations". It also mentions handpiece cord connectors, a keyboard, a multi-function footswitch, and a screen, all of which are hardware components.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
- Device Function: The Piezotome™ is an ultrasonic scaler used by dental practitioners for mechanical procedures within the mouth (scaling, root planing, canal preparation, etc.). It operates directly on the patient's teeth and surrounding tissues.
- Lack of Sample Analysis: The description does not mention the device analyzing any samples taken from the body. Its function is entirely mechanical and procedural.
Therefore, the Piezotome™ falls under the category of a dental device used for treatment and procedures, not for in vitro diagnostic testing.

Device Description
The Piezotome™ is an ultrasonic scaler for use by dental practitioners.
The Piezotome™ device uses piezoelectric ultrasound technology to generate mechanical microvibrations for ultrasonic scaling, with minimal trauma to soft tissue.
In Newtron® function, it can be used for mechanical ultrasound treatment in prophylaxis, periodontics, endodontics or prosthesis.
This device is fitted with two handpiece cord connectors. Depending on the application, the practitioner may connect two handpieces at the same time.
The Piezotome™ function offers four utilization modes at pre-set ultrasound power settings. In Newtron® function, the power of the ultrasound can be finely adjusted by the user.
Range | Ultrasound power | Procedure |
---|---|---|
Green | Low | Periodontics mainly |
Yellow | Medium | Endodontics mainly |
Blue | High | Prophylaxis mainly |
Orange | Very high | Prosthesis or Specific treatment modalities |
The user regulates the flow rate of the irrigation fluid.
The practitioner controls the device using a keyboard and a multi-function footswitch.
The irrigation fluid flow rate and the ultrasound power are monitored on a screen. For enhanced efficacy, the last settings are memorized by the machine.

Suprasson® P5 Newtron | Satelec | K050895 | April 20, 2005 |
The Satelec Piezotome™ is substantially equivalent to the predicate device by Satelec, the Suprasson® P5 Newtron (K050895) previously cleared by the FDA and currently marketed.
D. Device Description
The Piezotome™ is an ultrasonic scaler for use by dental practitioners.
The Piezotome™ device uses piezoelectric ultrasound technology to generate mechanical microvibrations for ultrasonic scaling, with minimal trauma to soft tissue.
In Newtron® function, it can be used for mechanical ultrasound treatment in prophylaxis, periodontics, endodontics or prosthesis.

E. Substantial Equivalence
The Piezotome™ and the predicate device, Suprasson® P5 Newtron (K050895) are both ultrasonic scalers for use in conventional dentistry by trained dental practitioners. Differences that exist between the devices relating to technical specifications, performances and intended use are minor and do not affect the safety and effectiveness of the Piezotome™.
