No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and biocompatibility of a mechanical mouthguard, with no mention of AI or ML.
Yes
The device is described as an "aid for the reduction of snoring" and functions to increase pharyngeal space, which is a therapeutic effect aimed at alleviating a health-related condition.
No
The device is an anti-snoring mouthguard intended to reduce snoring, not to diagnose a condition.
No
The device description clearly states it is comprised of a physical mouthguard, spatula, and storage case, and the performance studies focus on the physical properties and biocompatibility of these components.
Based on the provided text, the SOMNOS ANTI-SNORING MOUTH GUARD is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information about a person's health.
- SOMNOS Function: The SOMNOS ANTI-SNORING MOUTH GUARD is a physical device worn inside the mouth to reposition the jaw and reduce snoring. It does not analyze any biological specimens.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's an "aid for the reduction of snoring" and is used "while sleeping." This is a mechanical function, not a diagnostic one.
- Device Description: The description focuses on the physical components, materials, and how it works mechanically to advance the mandible.
- Performance Studies: The performance studies listed are functional and biocompatibility tests related to the physical properties and safety of the device when in contact with the body, not diagnostic accuracy or analysis of biological samples.
Therefore, the SOMNOS ANTI-SNORING MOUTH GUARD is a medical device, but it falls under a different classification than an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Device Description
SOMNOS ANTI-SNORING MOUTH GUARD is comprised of a mouthguard, a spatula and a storage case. The mouthguard is a self-fitting adjustable Mandibular Advancement Device (MAD) removable intraoral anti-snoring device used to reduce nighttime snoring in adult persons 18 years of age or older. SOMNOS ANTI-SNORING MOUTH GUARD consists of two customized prefabricated single-piece trays that conform to the patient's dentition in the upper and lower jaws. The device functions as a mandibular anterior repositioner, which acts to increase the user's pharyngeal space, resulting in the improvement of the ability to exchange air during sleep. SOMNOS ANTI-SNORING MOUTH GUARD, while in situ. moves the lower jaw forward and helps reduce the likelihood of snoring. It is intended to be worn while sleeping. The supplied spatula is used to separate the SOMNOS ANTI-SNORING MOUTH GUARD. SOMNOS ANTI-SNORING MOUTH GUARD is conformable to wear, and it can be self-fitted by the 'boil and bite' method (when heated the device conforms to person's teeth) and allows slight adjustment of the anterior positioning of the jaw to the person's comfort.
SOMNOS ANTI-SNORING MOUTH GUARD is constructed of two (2) preformed and fixed single piece trays composed of Thermoplastic resin Propylene Elastomer (TPE) material, specifically Ethylene-Vinyl-Acetate for the moldable part and Polycarbonate for the rigid part of the device. The spatula and storage case are composed of 100% Polypropylene. The materials in Somnos are commonly used in other 510(k) cleared dental mouth guards for bruxism and antisnoring. The three components (mouthguard, spatula and storage case) are manufactured by injection molding. They are non-flavored and have no color additives.
SOMNOS ANTI-SNORING MOUTH GUARD is provided in one model/size, is reusable by a single individual who is at least eighteen (18) years of age and is supplied as non-sterile.
Each box of SOMNOS ANTI-SNORING MOUTH GUARD is supplied with the following items:

Summary of Performance Studies
There were no clinical tests performed or provided in this submission.
The following functional performance tests were conducted on SOMNOS ANTI-SNORING MOUTH GUARD in accordance with FDA Recognized Consensus Standard, ISO 20795-2 Dentistry - Base polymers - Part 2: Orthodontic base polymers:
- Hardness, Water Sorption and Solubility Testing; ●
- Spatula & Mouth guard Boiling/Cooling Water Testing;
- Flexural Strength & Flexural Modulus; and
- Fracture Toughness; and
- Optical Microscopy (OM).
A biocompatibility assessment was conducted using SOMNOS ANTI-SNORING MOUTH GUARD as a final finished device in accordance with International Standard ISO 10993-1:2009 Biological evaluation of medical devices – Part 1 Evaluation and testing within a risk management process and FDA's Guidance Document. Use of International Standard ISO 10993-1. "Biological evaluation of medical devices - Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management process," June 16, 2016.
The following biocompatibility performance tests were conducted on SOMNOS ANTI-SNORING MOUTH GUARD:
- In Vitro Cytotoxicity Test using ISO 10993-5:2009 Test Method - MTT Method MEM with 10%FBS extract
- Skin Sensitization Test using ISO 10993-10:2010 Test Method Guinea Pig Maximization ● Test 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection Extract
- Skin Sensitization Test using ISO 10993-10:2010 Test Method Guinea Pig Maximization ● Test Sesame Oil Extract
- Oral Mucosal Irritation Test using ISO 10993-10:2010 Test Method - Hamster 0.9% Sodium Chloride Extract
- Oral Mucosal Irritation Test using ISO 10993-10:2010 Test Method Hamster Sesame ● Oil Extract
Koncept Innovators conducted a risk analysis on SOMNOS ANTI-SNORING MOUTH GUARD in accordance with ISO 14971. taking into account the issues raised in the FDA Guidance Document, "Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Intraoral Devices for Snoring and/or Obstructive Sleep Apnea -Guidance for Industry and FDA." With respect to perceivable conditions in which the device would be subjected to a worst-case environmental of human error scenario, Koncept Innovators believes the outcomes of these risks are considered acceptable within the context of ISO 14971, and that all potential risks have been mitigated to the lowest form. The identified potential risks have been addressed through device design or with communication with the user through the instructions for use. SOMNOS ANTI-SNORING MOUTH GUARD uses a STOP BANG questionnaire on the labeling to assess the risks of sleep apnea and contains appropriate warnings and labeling for the device to be used without a prescription. SOMNOS ANTI-SNORING MOUTH GUARD is not indicated for obstructive sleep apnea.
SOMNOS ANTI-SNORING MOUTH GUARD relied on biocompatibility and functional performance testing as the basis for non-clinical data. The non-clinical testing performed demonstrated that the SOMNOS ANTI-SNORING MOUTH GUARD is substantially equivalent to the predicate device. SnoreRx.
