Intended Use
The Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis System is designed for use in general prophylaxis and periodontal treatments and other areas of operative dentistry. It can also be used for: - . Stain removal, - Prophylaxis of orthodontic patients, . - Preparing tooth surfaces prior to bonding and sealant procedures, and ● - Implant debridement .
Device Description
The Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis System is an air polishing unit that delivers an air/water/powder mixture at the air polishing insert tip that polishes the tooth enamel without direct contact of the device. The system is used with water-soluble prophy powders such as Cavitron® PROPHY-JET® Sodium Bicarbonate Prophy Powder (K970342) or Cavitron® JET-Fresh® Aluminum Trihydroxide Prophy Powder (K014188) (for patients with low sodium requirements). Updated design features on the Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis System include a Tap-On™ Wireless Foot Pedal, prophy mode auto cycles, an illuminated diagnostic display, automated purge function, Cavitron® JET-Mate™ detachable sterilizable handpiece (K023697), and a swivel handpiece cable with more precise lavage control. Upon installation, the Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis System unit is connected to external air and water lines, as well as an AC power cord.
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical and electrical functions, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

Yes.
The device is used for general prophylaxis and periodontal treatments, which are therapeutic interventions aimed at maintaining oral health and treating gum disease.

No

The device is described as an air polishing unit used for prophylaxis and periodontal treatments, such as stain removal and preparing tooth surfaces, which are therapeutic and maintenance procedures, not diagnostic.

No

The device description clearly outlines a physical air polishing unit with hardware components (air/water/powder delivery, foot pedal, handpiece, power cord) and mentions connections to external air and water lines, indicating it is a hardware device with potentially embedded software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis System is used directly on the patient's teeth and implant fixtures for cleaning, stain removal, and surface preparation. It does not analyze specimens taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes procedures performed in the mouth on the patient.
  • Device Description: The description details how the device delivers an air/water/powder mixture to the tooth surface, which is a physical cleaning action, not a diagnostic test on a specimen.

Therefore, the Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis System is a dental device used for prophylaxis and other operative dentistry procedures, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

  • Stain removal, .
  • Prophylaxis of orthodontic patients, .
  • Preparing tooth surfaces prior to bonding and sealant procedures, and .
  • . Implant debridement

Identification of Risk Analysis Method: 6.

Risk analysis was performed on the Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis System utilizing an FMEA process based on ISO 14971. The results of the risk analysis performed on the Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis System concluded that all device design controls and process controls will be able to mitigate known potential failures and effects. In addition, performance testing and electrical safety testing were performed to mitigate other potential risks.

Description of Safety and Substantial Equivalence: 7.

Technological Characteristics: 7.1

The technological characteristics of the Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis System are very similar to the predicate devices; Cavitron® SPS Ultrasonic Scaler and Prophy Jet (K970342) and Cavitron® RF Ultrasonic Scaler with Sterimate Handpiece (K052334). All devices operate by the use of a foot pedal. The foot pedal in the Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis System and the predicate Cavitron® RF Ultrasonic Scaler with Sterimate Handpiece (K052334) can be connected to the system with a wire or by wireless means. The foot pedals of the Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis System and the predicate Cavitron® SPS Ultrasonic Scaler and Prophy Jet (K970342) have a two position operation. The first position is for rinsing, and second position is for air polishing. The Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis System and the predicate Cavitron® SPS Ultrasonic Scaler and

2

Prophy Jet (K970342) both utilize the same water-soluble air polishing prophy powders and air polishing insert. The Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis System and the predicate Cavitron® RF Ultrasonic Scaler with Sterimate Handpiece (K052334) both have a handpiece which can be removed to autoclave. Both the Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis System and the predicate Cavitron® SPS Ultrasonic Scaler and Prophy Jet (K970342) have a selector pointer on the top of the powder bowl which determines the amount of prophy powder which can be delivered to the patient. Both systems require the same input air and water pressure to function correctly. The Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis System and the predicate Cavitron® RF Ultrasonic Scaler with Sterimate Handpiece (K052334) have lavage control on the handpiece to select a water flow rate for system operation,. All lavage controls deliver the same range of water flow to the patient.

The proposed Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis system has added indications for stain removal, prophylaxis of orthodontic patients, preparing tooth surfaces prior to bonding and sealant procedures, and implant debridement. Although these indications are not included in the cleared indications of the air polishing predicate Cavitron® SPS Ultrasonic Scaler and Prophy Jet (K970342), they are cleared indications for newer air polishing devices. Specifically, the Satelec Air-N-Go dental prophylaxis handpiece (cleared under premarket notification K110379) and the EMS Medical Systems Air-Flow Master Piezon (cleared under premarket notification K110173) include indications for the removal of, "soft deposits and areas of discoloration", the preparation of teeth for, "conventional dental procedures such as the placement of composite fillings", "plaque and stain removal for orthodontic patients", and "cleaning of implant fixtures" and abutments. There are also multiple literature references that make a case for the safety of cleaning implants using an air polishing device.

Non-Clinical Performance Data: 7.2

Performance testing focused on verification of design, stain removal, enamel abrasion, function and safety of the Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis System. Below is a summary of the testing performed:

  • IEC 60601-1-2 Medical Electrical Equipment PART 1-2: General . Requirements for Basic Safety and Essential Performance Collateral Standard: Electromagnetic Compatibility (2007)
  • IEC 60601-1 Medical Electrical Equipment Part 1:General requirements . for basic safety and essential performance (2005)
  • FDA -- Guidelines for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software . Contained in Medical Devices - Software Validation
  • Internal specification and testing for handpiece operation, including lavage . control
  • Internal specification and testing for autocycle operation .
  • Internal specification and testing for indicator lights and user interface . functionality
  • Internal specification and testing for radio frequency distance for foot . pedal
  • Internal specification and third party testing for stain removal and abrasion �

The results of these performance tests support the substantial equivalence of the Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis System ..

7.3 Clinical Performance Data:

No human clinical data has been provided to support substantial equivalence.

Conclusion as to Substantial Equivalence: 7.4

The similarities in design, function, safety and intended use of the Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis System with the legally marketed predicate devices support substantial equivalence. The performance and safety data support the substantial equivalence of the Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis System.
