The InnerView LC is intended to precisely measure the damping characteristic of the periodontium and its associated fixed structures (teeth and/or implants). It can provide data to quantify tooth and/or dental implant mobility.
The InnerView LC is an electromagnetically driven percussion system used to collect the percussion data of teeth and/or implants by the dental professional. The system is indicated to precisely measure the damping characteristics of the periodontium and its associated fixed structures (teeth and/or implants). It can provide data to quantify tooth and/or dental implant mobility.
The InnerView LC consists of a wireless hand-held handpiece, base station, disposable film tip, and software. A USB cable provides a connection from the base station to a PC.
The device utilizes non-invasive quantitative percussion diagnostics (QPD), a mechanics-based methodology that tests the damping capability, and consequently mobility of teeth and dental implants by lightly percussing their buccal surface. The percussion data generated by the handpiece is wirelessly transferred to the base station and forwarded to the USB connection. In addition, the base station acts as a handpiece battery charger when the handpiece is docked. The device requires a fresh single use disposable film tip to be attached to the handpiece prior to each new procedure.
This document does not contain the specific acceptance criteria, reported device performance, or details of a study that proves the device meets acceptance criteria for the "InnerView LC". Instead, it is a 510(k) Premarket Notification summary, which focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device rather than providing a detailed performance study against specific acceptance criteria.
The document states that:
- Performance data (Bench Testing): "Performance testing of the InnerView LC was conducted to support substantial equivalence determination. The results demonstrate that the InnerView LC performs as well as the predicate, Periometer."
- Clinical Studies: "Clinical studies were not performed since the intended use and indications for use are the same and performance characteristics are equivalent."
Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information. The document implies that the "acceptance criteria" are effectively the performance characteristics of the predicate device, and the "study" is the bench testing demonstrating equivalence. However, the specific metrics, methodologies, and quantitative results of this bench testing are not detailed.

IV. DEVICE DESCRIPTION
The InnerView LC is an electromagnetically driven percussion system used to collect the percussion data of teeth and/or implants by the dental professional. The system is indicated to precisely measure the damping characteristics of the periodontium and its associated fixed structures (teeth and/or implants). It can provide data to quantify tooth and/or dental implant mobility.

V. INDICATIONS FOR USE
The InnerView LC is intended to precisely measure the damping characteristics of the periodontium and its associated fixed structures (teeth and/or implants). It can provide data to quantify tooth and/or dental implant mobility.
The indication for use statement for the InnerView LC is identical to the predicate device.
VI. COMPARISON OF TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS WITH THE PREDICATE DEVICE
The InnerView LC functions in a manner similar to and is intended for the same use as the Periometer, an electromagnetically driven percussion system used to precisely measure damping characteristics of the periodontium and its associated fixed structures (teeth and/or implants). It can provide data to quantify tooth and/or dental implant mobility.
The handpieces have the same mechanism of action, light percussion on the buccal side of the tooth/implant, same data acquisition through the piezo sensor which detects the amount of force absorbed by tooth/implant from the percussion probe. same user interface and output of results (energy return graph and loss coefficient), percussion /tapping mechanism material, maximum contact/tapping forces and the way data is transferred to the PC from the base station through USB connection.
Technological differences between the InnerView LC and the predicate device include:
- . The InnerView LC is used with single use disposable film tips to minimize cross-contamination potential. In addition, each tip is equipped with a security chip which communicates with the handpiece to register only one tip for a single patient procedure.
- . Not possible to sterilize. Instead, the device must be cleaned and disinfected between patients, and used with a transparent, commercially available barrier sleeve, as indicated in the User Manual.
- Handpiece is battery driven and wirelessly connects with the base station and transfers the ● percussion data. The handpiece charges when docked and cannot be used while charging.
- The device uses a cloud platform for storing generated percussion data for each patient and ● calculating the loss coefficient.
- The InnerView LC is factory calibrated for ease of use.

PERFORMANCE DATA VII.
The InnerView LC was evaluated in accordance with FDA Guidance Document "Dental Handpieces - Premarket Notification [510(k)]" and "Reprocessing Medical Devices in Health Care Setting".
The following performance data were provided in support of the substantial equivalence determination.
Biocompatibility Testing
The biocompatibility evaluation of the InnerView LC was conducted in accordance with the 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" and recognized consensus standards ISO 10993-1:2018" Biological evaluation of Medical Devices-Part 1: Evaluation and Testing within a Risk management Process" and ISO 7405:2018 "Dentistry- Evaluation of biocompatibility of medical devices used in dentistry". The battery of testing included cytotoxicity, sensitization, and irritation. The results demonstrate biocompatibility of the patient-contacting device components.
Electrical Safety and Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)
Electrical safety and EMC testing were conducted on the InnerView LC. The results demonstrate compliance with the IEC 60601-1 and IEC 60601-1-6 standards for safety and the IEC 60601-1-2 standard for EMC.
