Intended Use

Prescription Indications for Use:
. Protection against teeth grinding, bruxism & jaw clenching.
Short-term pain relief from muscle spasm due to occlusal interference. .
For the prevention of chronic tension and TMJ caused by chronic jaw clenching of . the mandibular and maxillary teeth by the temporalis muscle.

OTC Indications for Use:
The SleepRight® adjustable night guard is indicated for the protection against bruxism or night time teeth grinding. It is intended to reduce damage to the teeth and to prevent the noise associated with bruxing or grinding.

Device Description

An adjustable protector that provides a barrier between the upper and lower posterior teeth. The flexible connecting strap provides 4 adjustments for articulating bite pads.

AI/ML Overview

This document is a 510(k) premarket notification for a medical device called "SleepRight® -Select, SleepRight®-Low Profile and SleepRight®-Advance, SleepRight® - Low Profile Rx and SleepRight® - Advance Rx". It is a mouthguard/nightguard intended for protection against teeth grinding (bruxism) and jaw clenching, and for short-term pain relief from muscle spasms.

The document does not describe a study that establishes acceptance criteria and then proves the device meets those criteria. Instead, it describes a substantial equivalence determination, comparing the device to legally marketed predicate devices.

Therefore, the following information cannot be extracted from the provided text:

  • A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
  • Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance
  • Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and their qualifications
  • Adjudication method for the test set
  • If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, or the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs. without AI assistance. (This is irrelevant, as the device is not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool).
  • If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done (This is irrelevant, as the device is not an algorithm).
  • The type of ground truth used
  • The sample size for the training set
  • How the ground truth for the training set was established

Key Information from the Document:

The document focuses on establishing substantial equivalence to existing predicate devices based on:

  • Identical Indications for Use (OTC):
    • Subject Device (SleepRight®): Protection against bruxism or nighttime teeth grinding. Intended to reduce damage to the teeth and to prevent the noise associated with bruxing or grinding.
    • Predicate Device (Doctor's NightGuard): Protection against bruxism or nighttime teeth grinding. Intended to reduce damage to the teeth and to prevent the noise associated with bruxing or grinding.
  • Similar Indications for Use (Rx):
    • Subject Device (SleepRight® Rx): Protection against teeth grinding, bruxism & jaw clenching; Short-term pain relief from muscle spasm due to occlusal interference; Prevention of chronic tension and TMJ caused by chronic jaw clenching.
    • Predicate Device (EZ Splint): Protection against teeth grinding, bruxism & jaw clenching; Short-term pain relief from muscle spasm due to occlusal interference; Prevention of chronic tension and TMJ caused by chronic jaw clenching.
  • Physical Characteristics: Materials (Elvax® strap, Polyurethane/Pellethane bite pads for Advance; Polypropylene/Kraton® bite pads for Select/Low Profile) are compared to predicates.
  • Method of Manufacture: Both are "Injection Molded" (same as predicates).
  • Design: Shared similarities with the EZ Splint (partial coverage, preformed oral appliance with adjustable bite pads, no boiling required), distinguishing it from the Doctor's NightGuard (full coverage, boil and bite technology).
  • Reusability: "Yes, single consumer" (same as predicates).

The FDA determined that the device is substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicate devices, which allows it to be marketed. This determination is not based on performance data against acceptance criteria in the way a clinical trial for a novel drug or a new AI diagnostic algorithm would be. Instead, it relies on the similarities in indications, technological characteristics, and safety profiles to already cleared devices.

Dear Ms. Hasek:

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 (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. 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.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such 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.

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); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at (240) 276-0115. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Mibranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97).
