BRIUS Clear Aligners are indicated for use in the alignment teeth (i.e. all second molars) through orthodontic treatment of misalignment and malocclusion. The aligners guide teeth to their final position by way of continuous gentle forces.

The BRIUS Clear Aligners are thermoformed plastic aligners designed to be worn in sequence to facilitate the movement to the teeth to the final desired position. The sequential aligners introduce incremental movements that move teeth by way of gentle continuous force. The aligners are to be worn 2 0 to 22 hours a day and are to be removed for eating and for cleaning. BRIUS Clear Aligners are designed from digital scans of a patient's dentition submitted by a dental health professional (e.g. dentist or orthodontist). Using the scan, specialized orthodontic CAD/CAM software will be used to develop the treatment plans that consist of sequential dental models wherein the teeth are gradually realigned with each step. For this 510(k), 3Shape A/S's Ortho System (K180941) will be used for this application. Ortho System is approved for use in the management of orthodontic models, systematic inspection, detailed analysis, treatment simulation and virtual appliance design options. The specialized orthodontic treatment planning software has a 510k clearance for the intended use under FDA Classification Product Code PNN, regulation 872.5470. Once the treatment plan is reviewed and approved by a dental health professional, each 3D model from the treatment plan is manufactured. The aligner trays are then manufactured by thermoforming a dental thermoplastic sheet over each model. The aligner trays are then delivered to the prescribing dental health professional. This dental health professional then monitors treatment from the placement of the first aligner to the delivery of the final aligner and completion of treatment.
