More Information

No
The summary describes a physical dental device and does not mention any software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities.

No
The device is intended for protection against bruxism, reducing damage to teeth, and preventing noise. While it addresses a health issue, it does not involve treating or curing a disease, alleviating symptoms, or restoring function in a way typically associated with therapeutic devices in a broader medical context. It acts more as a protective barrier or preventative measure.

No

The device is indicated for protection against bruxism and to reduce damage to teeth, not for diagnosing bruxism or any other medical condition. It's a protective device, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "posterior-only occlusive nightguard, consisting of two molar bite plates connected by a buccal retention band," which are physical components, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for protection against bruxism and reducing damage to teeth. This is a physical intervention applied directly to the patient's mouth.
  • Device Description: The device is a physical nightguard.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or providing diagnostic information based on such analysis. IVDs are used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.

This device falls under the category of a medical device, specifically a dental device, but not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Device Description

Grind No More 2 and Grind No More 3 are a posterior-only occlusive nightguards, consisting of two molar bite plates connected by a buccal retention band. Similarly, the predicate devices consist of two molar bite areas connected by a retaining band; therefore, the Grind No More 2 and Grind No More 3 devices are technologically similar to the predicate devices. As with the predicate Grind No More 1, the molar bitc plates are grooved with vertical positioners to engage the natural anatomy of the teeth for enhanced retention.

Similarly, the predicate devices consist of two molar bite areas connected by a retaining band; therefore, the Grind No More 2 and Grind No More 3 devices are technologically similar to the predicate devices. As with the predicate Grind No More 1, the molar bitc plates are grooved with vertical positioners to engage the natural anatomy of the teeth for enhanced retention.

Substantial Equivalence

Grind No More 2 and Grind No More 3 are as safe and effective as the predicate devices. Grind No More 2 and Grind No More 3 have the same intended uses and similar indications, technological characteristics, and principles of operation as the predicate devices. The minor technological differences between Grind No More 2, Grind No More 3, and the predicate devices raise no new questions of safety or effectiveness. Thus, Grind No More 2 and Grind No More 3 are substantially equivalent.
