No
The summary provides no indication of AI/ML technology; it describes a mechanical device for enamel reduction.

No
The device is intended for interproximal enamel reduction using reciprocal movement, which is a dental procedure. There is no information provided to suggest it is for treating or preventing a disease, which is the definition of a therapeutic device.

No
The device is described as a method for enamel reduction, which is a treatment or modification of the teeth, not a diagnostic assessment.

No

The 510(k) summary describes a device intended for "achieving interproximal enamel reduction of teeth using a reciprocal movement." This strongly suggests a physical device that performs a mechanical action on teeth, not a software-only device. The lack of any mention of software, image processing, or AI further supports this conclusion.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "achieving interproximal enamel reduction of teeth using a reciprocal movement." This describes a physical procedure performed directly on the patient's teeth.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVDs are devices used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The description of the OrthoSlenderizer does not involve the analysis of any such specimens.
  • Anatomical Site: The anatomical site is "teeth," which are part of the living body, not a specimen being tested in vitro.

The OrthoSlenderizer appears to be a dental instrument used for a physical procedure, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample outside the body.

Dear Dr. Rocke:

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 Eederal Register.
