Intended Use
V-Mix is used for debridement, removing the smear layer, and cleansing the root canal system.
Device Description
V-Mix is a two-part, dual-action root canal cleanser. V-Mix A is an aqueous solution that contains carboxylic acid chelating agents and surfactants. V-Mix B is an aqueous solution that contains sodium hypochlorite. Once the two solutions are mixed, the mixed solution cleanses and debrides the root canal system by removing the organic and inorganic debris during and after endodontic instrumentation.

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

No
The device is a root canal cleanser used for debridement and cleansing, not for treating a disease or disorder.

No

The V-Mix device is described as a "root canal cleanser" used for debridement, removing the smear layer, and cleansing the root canal system. Its function is to physically clean and prepare the root canal, not to identify or diagnose a disease or condition. While testing includes various performance and safety studies, none of them relate to diagnostic accuracy.

No

The device description clearly states that V-Mix is a two-part, dual-action root canal cleanser consisting of two aqueous solutions (V-Mix A and V-Mix B). This indicates a chemical product, not a software-only device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "debridement, removing the smear layer, and cleansing the root canal system." This is a therapeutic or procedural use within the body (specifically, the root canal system), not for examining specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.
  • Device Description: The description details a chemical solution used to clean the root canal. It doesn't describe a device that analyzes biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Indicators: There is no mention of analyzing samples, providing diagnostic information, or any of the typical characteristics of an IVD.

Therefore, V-Mix is a medical device used in a dental procedure, but it does not fit the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Dear Katherine Barry:

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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reporting

  • V-Mix has similar indications for use as the predicate devices. ●
  • V-Mix is classified under product code KJJ and shares the identical common name "Cleanser, Root ● Canal" as the predicate devices.
  • Identical to the predicate devices, V-Mix is a non-sterile device.
  • V-Mix and all the predicate devices contain surfactants. ●
  • V-Mix and the primary predicate device, Chlor-XTRA™ (K082470), contain sodium hypochlorite . as the active ingredient.

  • . V-Mix and the predicate device, Vista Rinse Plus (K193409), both contain a carboxylic acid chelating agent.
  • V-Mix and the predicate device, Biopure MTAD Root Canal Cleanser (K053167), are both two-● part products, that when mixed, cleanse the root canal and remove smear layer in the instrumented root canal.
  • V-Mix and Chlor-XTRA have identical physical properties, a clear, pale yellow, aqueous solution ● with a chlorine-like odor.
  • V-Mix is identical to the predicate devices as all products are aqueous, endodontic irrigants. ●
  • V-Mix is used in the same target population and anatomical site as the predicate devices (i.e. oral ● cavity).
  • Identical to the predicate devices, V-Mix is for prescription use only by healthcare professionals. ●
  • V-Mix is administered identically to the predicate devices. All irrigants are delivered via a syringe ● and endodontic irrigating needle tip.
  • Identical to Chlor-XTRA, V-Mix is similar in biocompatibility for its intended use, as evident by ● the biocompatibility testing.

V-Mix shares similar intended uses, technical characteristics, and method of application to the predicate devices Chlor-XTRA™, Biopure MTAD Root Canal Cleanser, and Vista Rinse Plus.

Differences between the subject device (V-Mix) and predicate devices (Chlor-XTRA™, Biopure MTAD Root Canal Cleanser, and Vista Rinse Plus)

  • Minor differences in indications for use between the subject device and the predicate devices ● (Chlor-XTRA™, Biopure MTAD Root Canal Cleanser, and Vista Rinse Plus). Based on V-Mix's dual action, V-Mix's indications for use are aligned with all the predicate devices.
  • V-Mix and the predicate devices Biopure MTAD Root Canal Cleanser and Vista Rinse Plus all . contain a chelating agent as an active ingredient. However, V-Mix contains PBTC and citric acid whereas the predicate devices, Biopure MTAD Root Canal Cleanser and Vista Rinse Plus, contain citric acid and EDTA, respectively.
    • Nevertheless, this difference does not raise any safety or efficacy concerns as PBTC, citric o acid, and EDTA are all carboxylic acid chelating agents with a high affinity for calcium and all effectively remove the inorganic portion of smear layer.
  • V-Mix is a standalone endodontic irrigant, whereas the primary predicate, Chlor-XTRA requires ● additional endodontic irrigants to thoroughly clean the root canal system.
    • Sodium hypochlorite (Chlor-XTRA™) is used for debridement but cannot be used as a O standalone endodontic irrigant as it is not effective at removing smear layer.
    • V-Mix is used for debridement, cleansing, and removing the smear laver. O
    • However, this difference does not raise any safety or efficacy concerns as the primary O predicate device, Chlor-XTRA requires the subsequent use of a carboxylic acid chelating agent to remove the smear layer.
