The device description focuses on electrical impedance measurements and signal processing techniques without mentioning AI or ML.
No.
The device is an apex locator, which is used to measure the distance to the apex during root canal procedures and monitor the progress of the dental file. It is a diagnostic/measurement tool that aids in the treatment but does not directly treat the condition itself.
Yes
The device "requires precise determination of position of the dental file in the canal relatively to the root apex" and "is used to measure the distance to the apex during root canal procedures," which are diagnostic functions to guide a medical procedure.
No
The device description explicitly states it consists of a "main body incorporating the LCD display, a lip Clip, a file clip a cable and a touch prob" and is "powered by one 1.5 AAA Alkaline battery," indicating it includes hardware components beyond just software.
Based on the provided information, the RomiAPEX™ A-15 is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside of the body.
- RomiAPEX™ A-15 Function: The RomiAPEX™ A-15 measures the electrical impedance within the patient's tooth canal during a root canal procedure. It directly interacts with the patient's tissues inside the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use is to determine the position of a dental file relative to the root apex during a dental procedure, not to analyze a specimen taken from the body.
- Device Description: The description clearly states it applies a signal between a lip electrode and a file inserted into the root canal, measuring impedance changes in vivo.
Therefore, the RomiAPEX™ A-15 is a medical device used for a diagnostic purpose in vivo (within the living body), not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
RomiAPEX™ A-15 is indicated for patients who need to undergo root canal treatment, which requires precise determination of position of the dental file in the canal relatively to the root apex.

Device Description
- The RomiApex™ A-15 is used to measure the distance to the apex during root canal procedures. A low frequency low volt AC signal is applied between the lip electrode and the endodontic file, which is inserted into the root canal. The impedance of the tissues between the electrodes change as the file advances toward the root apex and the measured signals are used to monitor the progress of the file in the tooth.
- The RomiApex™ A-15 operates on the measurement of a weak electrical current . flowing between two electrodes. One electrode is a metal hook that rests on the patient's lower lip and the other is the endodontic file that is attached to the file clasp and inserted into the canal.
- The measurements in RomiAPEX™ A-15 are performed utilizing AC signals at two frequencies - 500 Hz and 8 kHz. The frequencies are alternated rather then mixed, as it is done in other apex locators, thus canceling the need for signal filtering and eliminating the noise caused by non-ideal filters.
- The device consists of a main body incorporating the LCD display, a lip Clip, a file clip a cable and a touch prob.
- The device is powered by one 1.5 AAA Alkaline battery.

Dear Mr. Margalit:
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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to 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.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please go to
http://www.fda.gov/AboutFDA/CentersOffices/CDRH/CDRHOffices/ucm115809.htm for the Center for Devices and Radiological Health's (CDRH's) Office of Compliance. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to
