No
The description focuses on the mechanical function of the device as a mandibular repositioner and does not mention any computational or data-driven features.
Yes
The device is intended to reduce or alleviate night time Snoring and mild to moderate Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), which are medical conditions, and it functions as a mandibular repositioner to improve air exchange during sleep.
No
Explanation: The device is described as an intra-oral device intended to reduce or alleviate snoring and mild to moderate Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) by acting as a mandibular repositioner. Its function is therapeutic (treatment), not diagnostic (identifying or characterizing a disease or condition).
No
The device description clearly states it is an "intra-oral device" consisting of "two custom fitted trays" and an "adjustment mechanism," indicating it is a physical hardware device.
No, 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 SomnoMed MAS Flex "S" is an intra-oral device that physically repositions the jaw to treat snoring and sleep apnea. It does not perform any tests on biological samples.
- Intended Use: The intended use is to reduce or alleviate snoring and sleep apnea, not to diagnose a condition based on laboratory testing.
Therefore, based on the provided information, the SomnoMed MAS Flex "S" is a therapeutic medical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Device Description
The Somnomed MAS Flex "S" is an intra-oral device used for treating Snoring and mild to moderate Obstructive Sleep Apnea. It consists of two custom fitted trays which fit over the upper and lower teeth and engage by means of adjustable lugs. The device functions as a mandibular repositioner, which acts to increase the patient's pharyngeal space during sleep and improves their ability to exchange air during sleep. The device is custom made for each patient and has the adjustment mechanism enabling the amount of mandibular advancement to be set by the dentist or physician at the time of fitting the device.

§ 872.5570 Intraoral devices for snoring and intraoral devices for snoring and obstructive sleep apnea.
(a)
Identification. Intraoral devices for snoring and intraoral devices for snoring and obstructive sleep apnea are devices that are worn during sleep to reduce the incidence of snoring and to treat obstructive sleep apnea. The devices are designed to increase the patency of the airway and to decrease air turbulence and airway obstruction. The classification includes palatal lifting devices, tongue retaining devices, and mandibular repositioning devices.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special control for these devices is the FDA guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Intraoral Devices for Snoring and/or Obstructive Sleep Apnea; Guidance for Industry and FDA.”

Comparison to Predicate Device:

2 of 3
This submission is for a modification to the originally cleared SomnoMed MAS device.
The SomnoMed MAS Flex "S" is substantially equivalent to the SomnoMed MAS with the only exception of a soft lining material (SMH Flex "S") that can be used instead of the stainless steel ball clasps for retention. The difference between the two types of retention are that the soft lining material (SMH Flex "S") is technologically advanced to grip around the tooth creating a good retention which is designed for patient comfort, this negates the need for metal retention such as ball clasps.

The difference between the intended device SomnoMed Flex "S" and the predicate devices are the materials. All of the predicates act as mandibular repositioners for the treatment of Snoring and mild to moderate Obstructive Sleep Apnea. This difference does not have significant effect on the safety or effectiveness of the SomnoMed MAS Flex "S". It is the prescribing physician's choice what material is used for the patients comfort and what is most suitable for the individual patient's dentition.

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.
