Vivid Aligner is indicated for use in the alignment teeth through orthodontic treatment of misalignment and malocclusion.
Device Description
Orthodent Laboratory, Inc. Vivid Aligner are intraoral thermoformed plastic aligner that are worn 20 to 22 hours per day and are designed to be used in a sequence, each aligner providing a gentle continuous force, to allow for the movement of teeth to the final desired position. The aligner are to be removed for eating and for cleaning. Orthodent Laboratory, Inc. Vivid Aligner are fabricated using a three-step process. The first step is to obtain the dimensions and details of the patient's baseline dentition. This is generally done using an oral scan data or a physical impression. This scanned data (digital CAD/CAM models or patient models) are imported into specialized dental software for treatment planning. The second step is the printing of 3D models of the treatment plan for use in step 3 (thermoforming). In the second step, Orthodent Laboratory utilizes a software application to plan the treatment by creating a series of sequential models that gradually position the teeth into their final desired position. The treatment plan is sent to the doctor for approval. Upon approval, a 3D printer is used to create the molds needed for each treatment step to provide the surface around which the aligner is thermoformed. The final step is the thermoforming of a plastic sheet material to each of the sequential treatment steps. This process is done using a standard thermoforming equipment and the appropriate material as outlined in this submission.
More Information

Not Found

No
The description details a software application used for treatment planning and creating sequential models, but it does not mention or imply the use of AI or ML algorithms for this process. The process appears to be based on pre-defined steps and doctor approval, not adaptive learning or pattern recognition.

Yes.
The device is used for orthodontic treatment, which involves the physical manipulation of teeth to correct misalignment and malocclusion, fitting the definition of a therapeutic intervention.

No

The device is described as an orthodontic treatment device (aligner) used for teeth alignment, not for diagnosing conditions. The 'treatment planning' mentioned refers to planning the teeth movement, not diagnosing a disease.

No

The device description clearly outlines the fabrication of physical, intraoral thermoformed plastic aligners, which are hardware components. While software is used in the treatment planning and creation of 3D models, the final medical device is a physical object.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body. The Vivid Aligner is an intraoral device that is placed directly in the patient's mouth to physically move teeth. It does not analyze any biological samples.
  • The intended use is for the alignment of teeth through orthodontic treatment. This is a therapeutic purpose, not a diagnostic one.
  • The device description focuses on the physical fabrication and function of the aligner. It describes how it's made and how it applies force to teeth. There is no mention of analyzing any biological markers or providing diagnostic information.

The process described involves obtaining patient data (scans or impressions), using software for treatment planning, and then fabricating a physical device based on that plan. This is consistent with the manufacturing of a custom medical device for therapeutic use, not an IVD.

Statement of
Indications for
Use:Vivid Aligner is indicated for use in the alignment of permanent teeth
through orthodontic treatment of misalignment and malocclusion.
Device Description
and Summary of
Technological
Characteristics:Orthodent Laboratory, Inc. Vivid Aligner are intraoral thermoformed
plastic aligner that are worn 20 to 22 hours per day and are designed
to be used in a sequence, each aligner providing a gentle continuous
force, to allow for the movement of teeth to the final desired position.
The aligner are to be removed for eating and for cleaning. Orthodent
Laboratory, Inc. Vivid Aligner are fabricated using a three-step
process. The first step is to obtain the dimensions and details of the
patient's baseline dentition. This is generally done using an oral scan
data or a physical impression. This scanned data (digital CAD/CAM
models or patient models) are imported into specialized dental
software for treatment planning. The second step is the printing of 3D
models of the treatment plan for use in step 3 (thermoforming). In the
second step, Orthodent Laboratory utilizes a software application to
plan the treatment by creating a series of sequential models that
gradually position the teeth into their final desired position. The
treatment plan is sent to the doctor for approval. Upon approval, a 3D
printer is used to create the molds needed for each treatment step to
provide the surface around which the aligner is thermoformed. The
final step is the thermoforming of a plastic sheet material to each of the
sequential treatment steps. This process is done using a standard
thermoforming equipment and the appropriate material as outlined in
this submission.
Mechanism of Action:In the same manner as the predicate device, each aligner exerts
gentle force to achieve progressive realignment of the teeth until
the final correction has been attained. This is based on the
treatment plan and proceeds over time.
Device Testing:Biocompatibility
Contact of the device to the patient's oral tissue requires the
Aligner material to be biocompatible. The thermoplastic
polyurethane has been tested according to Good Laboratory
Practices for its biocompatibility according to ISO 10993, as
follows:
Part 3 (Bacterial Mutagenicity – Ames Assay)
Part 5 (Cytotoxicity Elution - MEM),
Part 10 (Intracutaneous/Intradermal) Reactivity),
Part 10 (Oral Mucosa Irritation),
Part 10 (Maximization for Delayed-Type Hypersensitivity),
Part 11 (Subacute Systemic Toxicity)
Animal Human TestingNo animal or human testing were required for this product
because it is composed of the same materials and has a similar
design and method of manufacture/fabrication in comparison to
the predicate device.

The intended use of the Orthodent Laboratory, Inc. Vivid Aligner is the same to that of the primary predicate device as they are both intended for correcting dental malocclusion in patients with permanent dentition.

It has a similar technological principle, and the device characteristics are similar to the predicate device. The mode of operation and the material used to fabricate the aligner trays is the same as the predicate device. There are minor differences comparing Orthodent Laboratory, Inc. Vivid Aligner to the predicate Smylio Invisible Clear Aligner which do affect substantial equivalence or safety and effectiveness.

Substantial Equivalence Conclusion

Thus, based on the above it can be concluded that Orthodent Laboratory, Inc. Vivid Aligner is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
