Intended Use
The Deep Blue® is a dental curing light that is intended for use in dental procedures requiring the photopolymerization of materials.
Device Description
The Deep Blue® consists of a detachable handpiece that contains the LED (light emitting diode) light source, microprocessor control system, a light guide that directs light to the treatment area on the patient, and a connector for connection of the device to a power source. Two versions of the device will be marketed in the U.S., the Doris I and Doris II. The Doris I and Doris II configurations differ in the power source. The Doris I configuration is powered by a connection to a commercially available EMS Electro Medical Systems ultrasonic scaler. The Doris II configuration is powered by an electrical connection to a dental operative unit. The function of the connected ultrasonic scaler or the dental operative unit is limited to providing power to the handpiece.
More Information

No
The description focuses on basic electronic components and power sources, with no mention of AI/ML terms or functionalities.

No
A therapeutic device is one that treats a disease or condition. This device is a dental curing light used for photopolymerization of materials, which is a functional process rather than a therapeutic one.

No

Explanation: The device is a dental curing light, which is used for the photopolymerization of materials, not for diagnosing conditions or diseases.

No

The device description explicitly details hardware components such as a handpiece, LED light source, microprocessor control system, and light guide.

Based on the provided information, the Deep Blue® is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "for use in dental procedures requiring the photopolymerization of materials." This describes a therapeutic or procedural function performed directly on a patient, not a test performed on a sample taken from a patient.
  • Device Description: The description details a device that emits light to cure dental materials within the patient's mouth. It doesn't mention any components or processes related to analyzing biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status
    • Using reagents or assays

The Deep Blue® is a dental device used for a specific treatment procedure (curing dental materials), not for diagnosing a condition.

TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS AND SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE 6.

Both the proposed Deep Blue® and the predicate curing lights are designed for the photopolymerization of dental resins (see table on following page). The operational principles of the proposed and predicate devices are identical. The light source is an LED in a handpiece with a light guide inserted. The operator orients the tip of the light guide relative to the material being photopolymerized and activates the curing light using the foot switch to initiate a treatment session.

Differences between the proposed Deep Blue® and the predicate curing lights are limited to design differences, light output power, and available operational modes, Performance testing has been conducted that confirms that the Deep Blue" is able to cure resin within the specified timeframe without causing thermal damage to the tissue.

The similarities in intended use, technical specifications, and functional performance between the Deep Blue®, Mini LED, and LED Turbo PEN curing lights leads to a conclusion of substantial equivalence between the proposed and predicate devices.

Dear Dr. Nolte:

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.
