Device Description Summary

The Ormco™ Bonding System consists of a primer, a sealant, an adhesive, and bonding accessories.

· Ormco™ Bonding Primer is intended to bond orthodontic appliances such as metal brackets, and aligner attachments to enamel, in conjunction with an orthodontic sealant/enhancer, such as Ormco's Ortho Solo™ and an adhesive/cement. The primer is a clear liquid that conditions the surface of the application of a bonding sealant/enhancer. Ormco Bonding Primer is designed to be used as a system along with Ortho Solo and Ormco" Bonding Adhesive. The primer is offered in single-use vials which will be sold in kits and separately.

· Ormco™ Adhesive is a light-curing composite that is intended to be used with metal and ceramic brackets for orthodontic treatment and can also be used as aligner attachment. It is a convenient off-white paste providing aesthetics when used as aligner attachments or beneath a bracket. The adhesive is designed to be used as a system along with Ormco Bonding Primer and Ortho Solo. The adhesive is offered in syringes for multi-patient use, which will be sold in kits and separately.

Ormco™ EtchFree Bonding Primer is a bonding primer intended to bond orthodontic appliances such as metal brackets, ceramic brackets, and aligner attachments to enamel, in conjunction with an orthodontic sealant/enhancer, such as Ormco's Ortho Solo™ and an adhesive/cement without etching.

Ormco™ EtchFree Adhesive is a light-curing adhesive that is intended to be used for the attachment of orthodontic appliances to teeth such as metal bracket, ceramic brackets, and aligner attachments.

Indications for Use Comparison

21 CFR 807.92(a)(5)

21 CFR 807.92(a)(6)

Subject Primer:

The Subject Primer and Predicate Device, have the same indications for use, although a similar choice of words.

Subject Adhesive:

The Subject Adhesive and the Predicate Device have similar indications for use.

Technological Comparison

This section compares the Ormco Bonding Primer and Ormco Achesive to the respective predicate devices with regards to indications for use, technological characteristics, and performance data. As described in this section, the subject device(s) and the predicate(s) do not raise different questions of substantial equivalence.

Similarities Between Subject Device(s) and Predicate(s):

· Ormco™ Bonding Primer

The primer is similar to the Predicate Device, as both products have the same intended use which is to bond orthodontic appliances. Both products are biocompatible and have the appropriate bond orthodontic appliances. The Indications for Use is also similar, as it is to prepare the sorthe tooth prior to the application of a bonding agent and adhesive. Both products use a brush to apply the product onto the surface of the tooth and do not require to be light cured. Physically, both products are clear liquids.

· Ormco™ Adhesive

The adhesive is an orthodontic composite that is similar to the Predicate Device. They are both off-white, light curing adhesives which use photoinitiation. Both bond to prepared enamel. They can be used with metal and can be used as aligner attachments. They are a one component system, which eliming. They use a resin and glass filler system to create achesives with high bond strength and exceptional handling properties. Both resin matrices include the use of Bis-Hema. Both are packaged in a non-sterile 4-gram syringe which can be used on multiple patients.

Differences Between Subject Device(s) and Predicate(s):

· Ormco™ Bonding Primer

There are no major differences between the Subject Device, although there are two minor differences. The two devices have different composition characteristics; however, they function in an equivalent manner. The Predicate Device has indications to bond to dentin while the Subject Device does not.

· Ormco™ Adhesive

There are no major differences between the Subject Device, although there are some minor differences. Both composites use different types of fillers which serve the purpose of increasing viscosity, bracket retention, and bond strength. The fillers used in each formulation differ in particle size, shape, and material. The Subject Device uses an additional photoinitiator to diphenyliodonium hexafluorophosphate found in both formulations. The Predicate Device is packaged in a 0.2gram unit dose, whereas the Subject Device is only offered in a 4-gram syringe. The Predicate can be stored in a wider temperature range (2℃-27℃), and the Subject Device should only be stored in ambient temperature (16℃-27℃). The Subject Device has a curing time of 10 seconds when used with ceramic brackets and as aligner attachments, and a cure time of 20 seconds when used with metal brackets. The Predicate has a curing time of 3 seconds when used with ceramic brackets and a cure time of 6 seconds when used with metal brackets. The difference in curing times can be attributed to the different curing guns and light intensity from each brand. All differences between the two devices do not affect safety or efficacy.

Conclusion:

Based on a comparison of intended use, indications for use, technological characteristics, materials, principle of operation, features, and performance data, the Subject Primer, and Subject Adhesive, are substantially equivalent to their respective Predicate Devices. All criteria of substantial equivalence were met and do not raise new concerns regarding substantial equivalence: (1) Indications for Use, (2) Technological Characteristics, and (3) Performance Data. The Subject Devices a fundamentally new scientific technology and the nonclinical tests demonstrate that the device is substantially equivalent.
