The document describes a physical dental aligner system and its performance testing, with no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies.
Yes
The device is indicated for the treatment of tooth malocclusion, which is a therapeutic purpose. It positions teeth by applying continuous gentle force, aiming to correct a medical condition.
No
This device is a therapeutic device (aligners for tooth repositioning), not a diagnostic device. It is used to treat a condition (tooth malocclusion) rather than to diagnose one.
No
The device description explicitly states the device is a series of dental aligners fabricated from PETG plastic, which are physical hardware components.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for the treatment of tooth malocclusion by physically repositioning teeth. This is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
- Device Description: The device is a physical appliance (aligners) made of plastic that applies force to teeth. It does not involve analyzing biological samples.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
- Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Detecting or measuring substances in biological samples
- Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening of diseases or conditions based on sample analysis.
The device is a medical device used for treatment, not an in vitro diagnostic device used for diagnosis.

Device Description
The Custom-made Invisible Aligners System is a series of dental aligners that are fabricated of clear, thin thermoformed Polyethylene terephthalate (PETG) plastic to progressively reposition the teeth. Corrective force to reposition the teeth is delivered via minor changes into a position in each subsequent aligner.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Bench testing has demonstrated that the device is in compliance with pertinent standards and specifications, the expectations of the dental community and the product labeling. A comparison testing was performed in combination with the subject and predicate device including thickness, appearance, odor, density, water absorption, dissolution, color stability, tear resistance, wear resistance, flexural modulus of elasticity. The results showed that the subject device is as effective as the predicate device.
Manufacturing accuracy validation were conducted to the Custom-made Invisible Aligners from 12 different patient case were evaluated at the beginning, middle and end throughout the sequence. The accuracy of 3D molding and aligner molding are checked and meet the pre-established specification. The suitability, function and form of the aligner were checked and comparing it to the treatment design in the software, and the results were comply with the pre-established specifications and acceptance criteria.
A 2-year shelf life was determined by real-time aging testing. Performance testing were conducted after 30 months real-time aging under commercial storage condition. The test results showed conformity with the pre-established specifications and acceptance criteria.
The biocompatibility evaluation for the device was conducted in accordance with "Use of International Standard ISO 10993-1, Biological evaluation and testing within a risk management process –Guidance for Industry and Food and Drug Administration Staff" as recognized by FDA. The aligner is considered mucosal membrane contacting for a duration of greater than 30 days. The testing included: Cytotoxicity, Irritation, Sensitization. The results met the requirements and the material is considered non-cytotoxic, non-sensitizing and is not an intracutaneous irritant.
Software verification and validation testing were conducted on the software that facilitates ordering and processing of the Custom-made Invisible Aligner to support that the device is as safe and effective as the predicates. Documentation was provided as recommended by FDA's Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff, "Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices." The software for this device was considered as a "moderate" level of concern.
No clinical study is included in this submission.

Dear Ivy Wang:
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.
