The 510(k) summary describes a prophylaxis paste and its clinical performance, with no mention of AI or ML technology.
Yes
The intended use states that it is for the immediate and lasting relief of tooth sensitivity, which is a therapeutic purpose.
No
Explanation: The "Intended Use" section states that the device is for "cleaning and polishing procedures" and for "relief of tooth sensitivity," not for diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device description clearly indicates it is a prophylaxis paste, which is a physical substance, 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 cleaning and polishing teeth, and for the relief of tooth sensitivity. These are procedures performed directly on the patient's teeth, not on samples taken from the body for diagnostic purposes.
- Device Description: The device is a prophylaxis paste applied to the teeth. It does not involve analyzing biological samples.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any analysis of biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or any diagnostic purpose. IVDs are used to diagnose diseases or conditions based on the analysis of such samples.
Therefore, NUPRO® Sensodyne® Prophylaxis Paste with NovaMin® is a dental device used for treatment and prophylaxis, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Device Description
NUPRO® Sensodyne® is a premium prophylaxis paste containing NovaMin®, a calcium sodium phosphosilicate. The dye-free formulations are available in fluoride and non-fluoride formulations, with two different grits to gently remove dental plaque and stains. The Polish Grit is ideal for prophy procedures requiring minimal tooth abrasion. The Stain Removal Grit is suitable for most cleaning procedures where a high level of polish is desired for stain removal.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
A single site, double-blind, randomized, three arm parallel group study to determine the efficacy of NUPRO® Sensodyne® Prophy Paste with NovaMin® in reducing tooth hypersensitivity immediately after a single application following dental scaling and root planing, as well as longer lasting relief after the dental procedure was performed on human subjects. 151 participants were evaluated that were 18 years of age or older. The participants had at least two teeth that satisfied the qualifying response to stimuli for both parameters assessed (tactile and air blast). Evaluations occurred at baseline (treatment visit) and at a 28-day recall.
During the entire trial period, there were no cases of relevant pathological conditions observed by the examiner associated with test product usage. No serious or non-serious adverse events occurred during the course of the study.
The results of the study concluded that NUPRO® Sensodyne® Prophy Paste with NovaMin® showed statistically significant reductions in hypersensitivity immediately after dental scaling and root planing and for 4 weeks (28 days) after just one application. The results of the clinical study therefore support the expansion of the indications for use of the subject NUPRO® Sensodyne® Prophy Paste with NovaMin®.

5.0 Indications for Use
NUPRO® Sensodyne® Prophylaxis Paste with NovaMin® is intended for cleaning and polishing procedures, including prior to and after scaling and root planing as part of a professionally administered dental prophylaxis treatment. Secondarily. NUPRO® Sensodyne® Prophylaxis Paste with NovaMin® can be used for the immediate relief of tooth sensitivity and for lasting sensitivity relief for up to 4 weeks (28 days) after just one application.
6.0 Identification of Risk Analysis Method .
Risk analysis was performed on NUPRO® Sensodyne® Prophylaxis Paste with NovaMin® utilizing a process based on ISO 14971:2009. The risk analysis performed on NUPRO® Sensodyne® Prophylaxis Paste with NovaMin® concluded that the device has acceptable low risks, and any risks that are applicable to the device are mitigated by design and process controls that have already been implemented.
7.0 Description of Safety and Substantial Equivalence
7.1 Technological Characteristics
The technological characteristics of the NUPRO® Sensodyne® Prophylaxis Paste with NovaMin® are very similar to the Butler Gum® Prophylaxis Paste with NovaMin®. Both pastes include pumice to clean and polish teeth and NovaMin® for sensitivity relief. The formulation differs slightly as the vehicles for active ingredients (pumice and NovaMin®) are composed of slightly different materials, but both vehicles perform the same function and are considered safe and effective.
7.2 Non-Clinical Performance Data
Non-clinical performance data includes testing to determine the cleaning ability of the NUPRO® Sensodyne® Prophylaxis Paste with NovaMin® to remove stain and stability testing. Biocompatibility has been substantiated by human clinical studies. The data analyzed in the various tests substantiate that NUPRO® Sensodyne® Prophylaxis Paste with NovaMin® is as safe and effective as the Butler Gum® Prophylaxis Paste with NovaMin®.
7.3 Clinical Performance Data
A single site, double-blind, randomized, three arm parallel group study to determine the efficacy of NUPRO® Sensodyne® Prophy Paste with NovaMin® in reducing tooth hypersensitivity immediately after a single application following dental scaling and root planing, as well as longer lasting relief after the dental procedure was performed on human subjects. 151 participants were evaluated that were 18 years of age or older. The participants had at least two teeth that satisfied the qualifying response to stimuli for both parameters assessed (tactile and air blast). Evaluations occurred at baseline (treatment visit) and at a 28-day recall.
During the entire trial period, there were no cases of relevant pathological conditions observed by the examiner associated with test product usage. No serious or non-serious adverse events occurred during the course of the study.

The results of the study concluded that NUPRO® Sensodyne® Prophy Paste with NovaMin® showed statistically significant reductions in hypersensitivity immediately after dental scaling and root planing and for 4 weeks (28 days) after just one application. The results of the clinical study therefore support the expansion of the indications for use of the subject NUPRO® Sensodyne® Prophy Paste with NovaMin®. Since there were no adverse events observed NUPRO® Sensodyne® Prophy Paste with NovaMin® is deemed substantially equivalent to the predicate Butler Gum® Prophylaxis Paste with NovaMin®.
7.4 Conclusion as to Substantial Equivalence
The NUPRO® Sensodyne® Prophylaxis Paste with NovaMin® has been tested through in vitro testing for its ability to clean and remove stain from teeth, for abrasiveness, and stability. In addition, clinical evidence is presented which supports the sensitivity reduction effectiveness and safety of the subject device thereby supporting the additional indications for use. The modified NUPRO® Sensodyne® Prophylaxis Paste with NovaMin® is therefore substantially equivalent to the predicate Butler Gum® Prophylaxis Paste with NovaMin®.
