No.
The device polymerizes dental materials and, to a lesser extent, aids in bleaching by applying light to a tooth. It is classified as an Ultraviolet Activator for Polymerization, indicating it is not a therapeutic device.
No
The device is described as being for "polymerize dental materials," "bleaching procedures," and "photo-polymerization of light-cured dental materials." These are treatment-oriented functions, not diagnostic ones.
No
The device description clearly outlines hardware components such as an LED, fiber optic gooseneck, touch controls, and an AC/DC adapter, 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.
- Device Function: The Flexi-Lume LED System is a device that applies light directly to the patient's oral structures and teeth. Its primary functions are to polymerize dental materials and assist in bleaching procedures.
- Lack of Sample Analysis: The device does not analyze any biological samples taken from the patient. It interacts directly with the patient's body.
- Classification: The device is classified as an "Ultraviolet Activator for Polymerization (21 CFR 872.6070)," which is a classification for dental devices used for light-curing materials, not for in vitro diagnostic testing.
Therefore, the Flexi-Lume LED System is a dental device used for treatment and procedures performed directly on the patient, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Device Description
The Flexi-Lume LED System is classified as an Ultraviolet Activator for Polymerization (21 CFR 872.6070) because it is a device intended for the photo-polymerization of light-cured dental materials. The Flexi-Lume contains a multifunction LED that directs light via a fiber optic gooseneck to the patient's mouth. The LED light has several modes: Daylight white (color temperature 5500K), Fluorescent white (color temperature 3500K), Transdental Illumination, Bleaching Light, Non-Curing light (all visible wavelengths excluding blue wavelengths), and Curing Light. The Curing Light mode produces visible blue light in the 430-490nm waveband of the light spectrum with a power density of 1,500mW/cm2. This power density is sufficient for the product intended uses, generally the photo-polymerization of visible light cured dental materials, restorative composite materials, orthodontic brackets and orthodontic bonding and sealing materials.
The different lighting modes can be selected with touch controls on the housing. The touch controls also include a dimmer which allows the selection of light intensity in all modes except Curing and Bleaching, which have pre-set intensity levels.
The Flexi-Lume runs on 12VDC, powered by a certified AC/DC adapter that can be hidden inside the dental chair.

Dear Mr. Waller:
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.
