The summary describes a laser system with standard operating modes and does not mention any AI/ML components or functionalities.
No
The device is used as a heat source to activate tooth bleaching materials, which is a cosmetic procedure, not a therapeutic treatment for a disease or condition. While it is a "medical device," its intended use is not therapeutic.
No
The document states the device is intended for use as a heat source to activate tooth bleaching materials, which is a treatment function, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device description clearly states it is a "CO2 Surgical Laser" and emits a laser beam, indicating it is a hardware device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is "as a heat source to activate tooth bleaching materials." This is a therapeutic or cosmetic application performed directly on the patient's tooth.
- Device Description: The device is described as a "CO2 Surgical Laser" used as a "heat source." This aligns with a physical intervention on the body, not an in vitro test.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) outside of the body, which is the defining characteristic of an IVD.
Therefore, the Sharplan 15F CO2 Laser System, as described, is a medical device used for a procedure on the patient, not for performing diagnostic tests on samples.

Dear Mr. Hattub:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to 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). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. 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.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements , as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (OS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic (QS) inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
