No
The device description and intended use focus on mechanical dental handpieces and their function, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.
Yes
The device is intended for the removal of carious material, reducing hard tooth structure, cavity preparation, and polishing teeth, which are therapeutic interventions.
No
The intended use of the devices listed (dental handpieces) is for mechanical procedures such as removing material, preparing cavities, and polishing teeth, not for diagnosing conditions or diseases.
No
The device description clearly states that the devices are physical dental handpieces and instruments, powered by air or electric motors, and are reusable and sterilizable. There is no mention of software as the primary or sole component.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
- Device Function: The description clearly states that these devices are dental handpieces used for mechanical procedures within the mouth (removing carious material, preparing teeth, polishing, etc.). They are tools used directly on the patient's teeth and surrounding structures.
- Lack of Biological Sample Analysis: There is no mention of the device analyzing any biological samples taken from the patient.
Therefore, these dental handpieces fall under the category of general surgical or dental instruments, not in vitro diagnostics.

Dear Ms. Boswell:
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.

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.
