The summary describes a physical oral appliance for sleep apnea and snoring, with no mention of software, algorithms, or AI/ML terms.
Yes.
The device is intended to reduce night-time snoring and/or mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), which are conditions related to health and functioning, fitting the definition of a therapeutic device.
No
The device is an oral appliance intended to reduce night-time snoring and/or mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea, not to diagnose these conditions.
No
The device description clearly states it is an "oral appliance design concept" and mentions physical components like "upper and lower trays" and fitting by a dentist, indicating it is a physical medical device, not software-only.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This information is used for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Function: The Oral Device-OA and Oral Device-S are physical appliances worn in the mouth. Their function is to reposition the mandible (lower jaw) to reduce snoring and/or obstructive sleep apnea. They do not analyze any biological samples.
- Intended Use: The intended use is to reduce snoring and/or sleep apnea, not to diagnose or monitor these conditions through the analysis of biological samples.
The provided information clearly describes a physical medical device used for mechanical intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on biological specimens.

Discussion of Differences
The differences between the Oral Device - OA predicate - ApneaRx - K113569 and the Oral Device-S and the predicate SnoreRx - K170825 are:
- For the Oral Device-OA the predicate trays are customized but the principle of a boil and bite . tray with impression material is similar.
- . The mechanism for advancing the trays is a set of screws for the Oral Device while the predicate uses clips on the side to latch and hold the trays in the advanced position.
Substantial Equivalence Conclusion
Based upon the performance testing and comparison to the legally marketed predicate device for indications for use, technology, and performance we believe we have demonstrated that the Oral Device-OA is substantially equivalent to the predicate ApneaRx - K113569 and the Oral Device-S is substantially equivalent to the predicate SnoreRx OTC - K170825.
