Device Description
Photon/Photon Plus Diode Laser is a surgical device at the cutting edge of technology, designed for a wide variety of oral soft tissue and tooth whitening procedures with the wavelength of 980nm and the power range of 100mW to 10W. Photon Series Diode Laser utilizes a solid state diode a laser energy source. The energy is delivered to the operating area by means of a delivery system consisting of a flexible fiber connecting the laser source and the handpiece. The device is activated by means of a footswitch.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a diode laser device for oral soft tissue procedures and tooth whitening. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any data-driven decision-making components in the device description, intended use, or performance studies. The device operates based on laser energy delivery via a fiber and handpiece, activated by a footswitch.

Yes

The device performs various therapeutic procedures on oral soft tissue, such as excision, vaporization, ablation, and coagulation, as well as laser periodontal procedures and tooth whitening.

No
The device is described as a "surgical device" used for "excision, vaporization, ablation and coagulation of oral soft tissue procedures" and "tooth whitening." These are treatment procedures, not diagnostic ones. While "Excisional and incisional biopsies" are listed, these are procedures for taking samples for diagnosis, not the diagnostic act itself performed by the device.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "surgical device" utilizing a "solid state diode a laser energy source" delivered via a "flexible fiber connecting the laser source and the handpiece," activated by a "footswitch." These are all hardware components, indicating it is not a software-only device.

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. They are used to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The Photon/Photon Plus Diode Laser is a surgical device used for excision, vaporization, ablation, and coagulation of oral soft tissue. It directly interacts with the patient's tissue during procedures.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes surgical procedures performed directly on the patient's oral tissue, not tests performed on samples outside the body.
  • Device Description: The description details a laser system that delivers energy to the operating area via a fiber and handpiece, consistent with a surgical tool.

Therefore, the Photon/Photon Plus Diode Laser is a surgical device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Comparison of Picasso/Picasso Lite and Zolar Photon (Technical Specifications)

The Photon Plus / Photon Dental Diode Lasers are of a comparable type and substantially equivalent to the currently marketed Picasso / Picasso Lite (K102359) and stLase Dental Lasers (K111689). Although the subject devices are somewhat smaller and lighter than Picasso devices, the overall construction, materials and performance as well as key features are equivalent. The subject devices have the same intended uses as the predicate devices and the Photon Plus subject device includes features which are well established on the stLase Dental Laser systems.

Discussion of Non-Clinical Tests Performed for Determination of Substantial Equivalence 8. are as follows:

The subject devices have been tested for thermal, electrical and mechanical safety, and conform to applicable medical device safety standards, IEC 60825-1 and IEC 60601-2-22.

Testing was conducted to validate and verify that the Photon/Photon Plus devices met all design specifications and were substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.

Dear Ms. Goldstein-Falk:

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
