Device Description
V-varnish™ Premium is cavity varnish containing 5% sodium fluoride(F ion: 22,600ppm). It is applied to teeth for the purpose of treatment dentinal hypersensitivity. V-varnish™ Premium consists of rosin which adheres to the surface of the teeth, seals exposed dentin tubules. V-varnish™ Premium has four flavors such as bubblegum, strawberry, melon and mint and two colors(clear and white). It is packed in single dose package allows easy mixing and application.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the chemical and physical properties of a fluoride varnish, with no mention of AI or ML.

Yes.
The "Intended Use" explicitly states that the device is "For treatment of dentinal hypersensitivity," which indicates a therapeutic purpose.

No

Explanation: The "Intended Use" states that the device is for "treatment of dentinal hypersensitivity," and the "Device Description" explains that it "seals exposed dentin tubules." There is no indication that the device performs any diagnostic function; its purpose is solely therapeutic.

No

The device description clearly states it is a cavity varnish containing physical components (sodium fluoride, rosin) and is applied to teeth, indicating it is a physical product, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "For treatment of dentinal hypersensitivity secondary to exposed dentin and root surfaces." This describes a therapeutic treatment applied directly to the patient's teeth.
  • Device Description: The description details a cavity varnish applied to teeth to seal exposed dentin tubules. This is a topical application for a therapeutic effect.
  • 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 involve the examination of such specimens.

The device is a medical device, specifically a dental varnish, but it falls under the category of therapeutic devices rather than in vitro diagnostics.

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

Non-Clinical Performance Testing:

  • Study Type: In vitro testing, stability testing, biocompatibility evaluation.
  • Sample Size: Not specified.
  • Key Results:
    • In vitro testing compared V-varnish™ Premium and the predicate device (Enamel Pro® Varnish) for consistency, pH, fluoride content, and dentinal tubule occlusion.
      • Consistency: Subject Device = 27.14 ± 0.62 mm; Predicate Device = 33.25 ± 0.64 mm
      • pH: Subject Device = 6.65; Predicate Device = 6.69
      • Fluoride content: Subject Device = 2.15 ± 0.03 %; Predicate Device = 1.97 ± 0.05 %
      • Dentinal tubule occlusion: Subject Device = 85%; Predicate Device = 77%
      • The report concludes that "According to bench test result, the physical & performance properties of the subjective device and predicate device are substantial equivalent."
    • Stability testing confirmed a shelf life of 24 months at room temperature by evaluating physical properties.
    • Biocompatibility evaluation was conducted in accordance with FDA Blue Book Memorandum #G95-1 and ISO 10993-1, including tests for cytotoxicity (MTT), genotoxicity, oral mucous irritation, sensitization (LLNA), and acute systemic toxicity. Both devices are considered biocompatible.

Key Metrics (Sensitivity, Specificity, PPV, NPV, etc.)

  • Consistency: 27.14 ± 0.62 mm
  • pH: 6.65
  • Fluoride content: 2.15 ± 0.03 %

VII. NON-CLINICAL PERFORMANCE TESTING

In vitro testing was conducted with V-varnish™ Premium and the predicate device, Enamel Pro® Varnish. Properties evaluated include consistency, pH, fluoride content and dentinal tubule occlusion.

Stability testing was conducted by evaluating the physical properties of the device to confirm a shelf life at room temperature of 24 months.

The biocompatibility evaluation for the V-varnish™ Premium was conducted in accordance with the FDA Blue Book Memorandum #G95-1 "Use of International Standard ISO-10993, 'Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices Part 1:Evaluation and Testing" May 1, 1995, and International Standard ISO 10993-1 "Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices – Part 1 : Evaluation and Testing Within a Risk Management Process" as recognized by FDA. The tests carried out for the devices and standards applied for each test are:

  • · Cytotoxicity(MTT), ISO 10993-5[2009]
  • · Genotoxicity, ISO 10993-3[2003]
  • . Oral mucous Irritation, ISO 10993-10[2010]
  • . Sensitization(LLNA), ISO 10993-10[2010]
  • . Acute systemic toxicity, ISO 10993-11[2006]

V-varnish™ Premium is considered to be in contact with dentin, enamel and oral mucosa for duration of less than 24 hours, while being the external communicating device.

VIII. SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE DISCUSSION

The subject device is similar to indication for use, design, recommended contact time, chemical composition, physical & performance properties and etc. Also, the physical and performance properties of subjective device are not significant different between the subject device and the predicate device.

The subject device is composed of tricalcium phosphate while predicate device is composed of dibasic sodium phosphate and calcium sulfate dihydrate. All of these raw materials cause blockage of dentinal tubule to achieve the intended function of device. Also tricalcium phosphate of subject device is actually a resultant chemical compound from raw materials of predicate device; dibasic sodium phosphate and calcium sulfate dihydrate in oral condition.

9

Both subject device and predicate device produced with same amount of sodium fluoride contents.

The flavor and storage condition are different between subject device and predicate device which do not raise question or concerns.

IX. CONCLUSIONS

Based on a comparison of technology and Indications for use, together with in vitro performance testing, the subject device of V-varnish™ Premium is substantially equivalent to the predicate of Enamel Pro Varnish.
