Device Description
The Pmax Newtron XS is an ultrasonic scaler for use by qualified dental practitioners in the four conventional dental applications of prophylaxis, periodontics, endodontics, and prosthesis. The Pmax Newtron XS device uses piezoelectric ultrasound technology to generate mechanical microvibrations for ultrasonic scaling, with minimal trauma to soft tissue. The Pmax Newtron XS™ function offers four utilization modes at pre-set ultrasound power settings. The power of the ultrasound can be finely adjusted by the user. Range: Green, Ultrasound power: Low, Procedure: Periodontics mainly Range: Yellow, Ultrasound power: Medium, Procedure: Endodontics mainly Range: Blue, Ultrasound power: High, Procedure: Prophylaxis mainly Range: Orange, Ultrasound power: Very high, Procedure: Prosthesis or Specific treatment modalities Liquid irrigation is provided by two 300 mL self-contained solution tanks and the Newtron LED handpiece provides light and air functions. The light is provided by a light ring consisting of high-performance light-emitting diodes (LED) in the handpiece and air is delivered to the handpiece for air irrigation through connection of the control unit to the user's dental surgery's medical quality filtered air distribution system.
More Information

No
The description focuses on ultrasonic scaling technology with pre-set power modes and user adjustments, with no mention of AI or ML.

Yes
It is intended for dental applications like periodontics, endodontics, scaling, and prosthesis, which are therapeutic procedures.

No

The device description indicates that the Pmax Newtron XS is an ultrasonic scaler used for dental applications like periodontics, endodontics, scaling, and prosthesis. These are treatment-oriented procedures, not diagnostic ones.

No

The device description clearly outlines hardware components such as an ultrasonic scaler, piezoelectric ultrasound technology, solution tanks, an LED handpiece, and connections for air distribution, indicating it is a physical medical device with integrated technology, not software-only.

Based on the provided information, the Pmax Newtron XS is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices intended for use in the collection, preparation, and examination of specimens taken from the human body (such as blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of disease.
  • Pmax Newtron XS Function: The Pmax Newtron XS is an ultrasonic scaler used by dental practitioners for procedures performed directly on the patient's teeth and gums (periodontics, endodontics, scaling, prosthesis). It uses mechanical vibrations and irrigation, not the analysis of biological specimens.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes dental applications performed within the patient's mouth, not laboratory testing of samples.

Therefore, the Pmax Newtron XS falls under the category of a dental device used for treatment and procedures performed directly on the patient, not an IVD.

Dear Mr. Salesky:

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.
