Device Description
The T-8000 TherOzone Unit is a device intended to clean dental unit water lines. The device consists of an ozone generator and dispensing bottles.
More Information

No
The summary describes a device that uses an ozone generator for cleaning and does not mention any AI or ML components or functionalities.

No
The device is described as being "intended for the reduction of microorganisms in dental unit water lines." This indicates a cleaning or maintenance function for equipment, not a direct therapeutic effect on a patient.

No
The device is described as being intended to clean dental unit water lines by reducing microorganisms, which is a maintenance or sterilization function, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description explicitly states it consists of an ozone generator and dispensing bottles, which are hardware components. The performance studies also include hardware-related testing like Environmental Evaluation, Functional Verification, Pressure Verification, and Material Compatibility Analysis.

Based on the provided information, the T-8000 TherOzone Unit is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "for the reduction of microorganisms in dental unit water lines." This describes a process applied to equipment (water lines), not a test performed on a biological sample from a patient to diagnose a condition.
  • Device Description: The device description mentions an "ozone generator and dispensing bottles" used to "clean dental unit water lines." This aligns with a cleaning or disinfection process for equipment, not a diagnostic test.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring substances in biological samples
    • Providing information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of a disease or condition in a patient.

The device is clearly intended for maintaining the cleanliness of dental equipment, which falls outside the scope of In Vitro Diagnostics.

Dear Ms. Pine:

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.

Performance Data:

All necessary verification and validation testing has been performed for the T-8000 TherOzone Unit to assure substantial equivalence to the predicate devices and demonstrate the device performs as intended. All testing was performed on test units representative of finished devices. Performance Testing included:

  • Microbial challenge
  • Software Validation ●
  • Environmental Evaluation ●
  • Functional Verification
  • Material Compatibility Analysis
  • Usability Evaluation
  • Pressure Verification ●
  • Environmental Condition Verification

The performance testing conducted demonstrates that the T-8000 TherOzone Unit is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.

Basis for Determination of Substantial Equivalence:

Based on the intended use, indications for use, technological characteristics, performance data and nonclinical tests performed, the subject T-8000 TherOzone Unit is substantially equivalent and is as safe and as effective as the legally marketed predicate devices, UltraKleen(K991946) and Odyssey Dental Water Unit (K964796).
