No
The summary describes a standard cordless prophylaxis handpiece with basic controls and indicators. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any data processing that would suggest the use of such technologies. The performance studies focus on electrical safety, biocompatibility, and functional specifications, not on algorithmic performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML.

No
The device is used for cleaning and polishing teeth, which is a prophylactic procedure, not a therapeutic one. It's designed for maintenance and prevention, not for treating a disease or condition.

No
Explanation: The device is described as a prophylaxis handpiece for cleaning and polishing teeth, which is a treatment procedure, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "cordless prophylaxis system consisting of an electric motor driven handpiece and an AC powered battery charger (stand)." This indicates the device includes significant hardware components beyond just software. While software is mentioned as being verified and validated, it is part of a larger hardware system.

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 procedures on teeth." This is a mechanical procedure performed directly on the patient's teeth.
  • Device Description: The device is a "cordless prophylaxis handpiece" that uses disposable angles to perform the cleaning and polishing. This describes a tool used for a physical procedure.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not interact with or analyze any such specimens.

The device is a dental handpiece used for a direct dental procedure, not for in vitro diagnostic testing.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

The iProphy mobile was developed and is produced under consideration of all applicable technical standards, and internal specifications. Tests were performed which demonstrated that the device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device. Tests included verification/validation testing to internal functional specifications, including software. Documentation was provided demonstrating compliance of the iProphy mobile with ISO 10993-1: "Biological evaluation of medical devices -- Part 1: Evaluation and testing" and FDA Guidance "Use on International Standard ISO 10993, "Biological evaluation of medical devices -- Part 1: Evaluation and testing" Documentation was provided demonstrating compliance of the iProphy mobile to all FDA requirements stated in Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions Software Contained in Medical Devices, including results of for for verification/validation plus traceability of verification/validation tests to software requirements and software risk hazards. Testing confirmed that the iProphy mobile complies with relevant voluntary safety standards for Electrical safety and Electromagnetic Compatibility testing, specifically 1EC standards 60601-1 and 60601-1-2. Documentation was provided to demonstrate that the iProphy mobile is compliant to ISO 11498: "Dental handpieces: Dental low-voltage electrical motors". Together, these verification/validation activities successfully demonstrated that the iProphy mobile correctly performs as designed, has been validated for its intended use, and raises no new questions regarding either safety or effectiveness when compared to the predicate device. Therefore, the verification/validation testing conducted supports a determination of substantial equivalence for the iProphy mobile device.

| Device Description: | The iProphy mobile is a cordless prophylaxis system consisting of an electric motor
driven handpiece and an AC powered battery charger (stand). The handpiece
utilizes commercially available disposable, single use Disposable Prophy angles
(DPA). The handpiece features on-board user controls for power, on/off, and speed

(Indications for Use): | The Nakanishi iProphy mobile is a cordless prophylaxis handpiece for use with
disposable prophylaxis angles in hygiene operatory to perform cleaning and
polishing procedures on teeth. | | | |
| Summary of
Technological
Characteristics: | Using commercially available disposable Prophy angles (DPA), the Nakanishi
iProphy mobile can be used to clean and polish teeth. The iProphy mobile software
driven user controls are located on the cordless handpiece allowing the user to
power the device on and off, activate rotation of the device, set the rotation speed,
observe the speed setting, observe the battery charging status, and observe the
battery status. In addition, the iProphy mobile features and auto power-off function
after approximately 10 minutes of non-operation, and a last memory function that
recalls the most recent settings from when the device was last powered off.

Minor differences exist between the Nakanishi iProphy mobile and the predicate.
The predicate requires the use of a foot pedal while the iProphy mobile does not;
the predicate requires a higher water exposure rating than the iProphy mobile; the
predicate utilizes a re-sterilizable sheath while the iProphy mobile utilizes
disposable handpiece shields like many other dental devices; and the iProphy
mobile can utilize any commercially available compatible DPA, while the predicate
identifies specific compatible DPAs. These minor differences do not impact
substantial equivalence of the Nakanishi iProphy mobile. | | | |
