Intended Use
CompleClear appliances are intended for use as a clear, plastic bracket and archwire system to provide orthodontic movement of natural teeth.
Device Description
CompleClear Plastic Orthodontic Bracket and Wire Appliance is an orthodontic appliance consisting of a polysulfone bracket with two separate components (tooth component and wire component) and an orthodontic wire pre-attached to the wire component of the bracket. The tooth and the wire components are capable of mechanically interlocking to form a detachable and reattachable bracket assembly. The tooth component of the bracket is cemented to the tooth, like regular orthodontic brackets. The wire components are pre-attached at specific positions along the orthodontic wire. The orthodontic wire is customized for each patient by creating various bends and rotations along the wire. This configuration of the customized wire, results in a specific position and orientation of the wire components of the bracket system along the customized wire. This customized orthodontic wire along with the series of pre-attached wire components constitutes the 'aligner'. When the wire components of the 'aligner' are engaged on to the corresponding tooth component cemented on the tooth, the orthodontic wire is activated like a spring. The tooth is gently moved to its desired position due to the elastic recoil of the wire. The two component bracket assembly of the present device allows moment arms for mesiodistal rotation, labio-lingual inclination and mesio-distal angulations (tip) similar to conventional bracket-wire used in orthodontics. The treatment uses a series of aligners, each incorporating a predefined amount to tooth movement toward the final desired end goal. The amount of tooth movement incorporated, the type of tooth movement incorporated and the final desired end goal are all determined and approved by the provider.

No
The description focuses on the mechanical properties and design of the orthodontic appliance and wire system. There is no mention of AI or ML being used in the design, manufacturing, or treatment planning process. The customization of the wire is described as being determined and approved by the provider.

Yes
The device is described as an orthodontic appliance that uses a bracket and archwire system to provide orthodontic movement of natural teeth, which is a therapeutic function to correct dental alignment.

No

This device is an orthodontic appliance designed for tooth movement, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components: a polysulfone bracket, an orthodontic wire, and a tool for removal. Performance studies also focus on mechanical properties and shear bond strength, indicating a hardware-based device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "to provide orthodontic movement of natural teeth." This is a therapeutic purpose, directly affecting the patient's physical structure (teeth).
  • Device Description: The device is a physical appliance (bracket and wire system) used to apply force to teeth for movement. It does not involve testing or analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to diagnose a condition or provide information about a patient's health status.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples, detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information. The device's function is purely mechanical and therapeutic.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, treatment, or alleviation of disease. This device does not fit that description.

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

Physical testing: Mechanical testing showed the force which could be applied by deflection of the wire was within the range of other orthodontic forces. The force required to break the melt and remove the wire from the bracket was significantly higher than the force which could be applied by the wire. The force necessary to snap the aligner away from the cemented brackets was also significantly higher than the orthodontic forces applied to the teeth. This ensures integrity of the aligner during function and also that aligner does not detach until the dentist or patient intends to remove it. A tool is normally used to remove the aligner. Since the wire in the aligner acts more like a spring friction testing was not appropriate.

Shear bond strength testing of the brackets adhered to teeth was carried out on both CompleClear and Ortho Specialties' brackets. There was no statistical difference in them.

Physical testing: Mechanical testing showed the force which could be applied by deflection of the wire was within the range of other orthodontic forces. The force required to break the melt and remove the wire from the bracket was significantly higher than the force which could be applied by the wire. The force necessary to snap the aligner away from the cemented brackets was also significantly higher than the orthodontic forces applied to the teeth. This ensures integrity of the aligner during function and also that aligner does not detach until the dentist or patient intends to remove it. A tool is normally used to remove the aligner. Since the wire in the aligner acts more like a spring friction testing was not appropriate.

Shear bond strength testing of the brackets adhered to teeth was carried out on both CompleClear and Ortho Specialties' brackets. There was no statistical difference in them.

Conclusion: The CompleClear Plastic Orthodontic Bracket and Wire Appliance is substantially equivalent to the Composite Brackets (K140807) and the SimpliClear rectangular orthodontic wire (K110796) in manufacturing, materials, biocompatibility, applications for use and shear bond strength.
