Device Story
KaVo DIAGNOdent 2190 is a handheld laser fluorescence device for dental caries detection. It emits 650 nm laser light to illuminate tooth surfaces; detects fluorescence returned from tooth structure; processes signal to provide numeric and audible feedback via integrated LCD screen. Used by dentists in clinical settings to identify carious lesions. Compared to predicate DIAGNOdent 2095, the 2190 features a pen-like form factor with integrated probe, reduced laser power (Class I vs Class II), and single AA battery operation. Output assists clinicians in diagnostic decision-making regarding caries presence and severity.
Clinical Evidence
Substantial equivalence supported by bench, in vitro, and clinical studies, alongside EMC and electrical safety testing. No specific performance metrics (sensitivity/specificity) provided in the summary document.
Technological Characteristics
Laser fluorescence caries detection device. Emits 650 nm laser light (Class I, 190 nw max radiant power). Features integrated probe with sapphire tip. Powered by 1 AA alkaline battery. User interface includes LCD numeric display and audible tones. Sterilization via autoclave for probe tip.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use as an aid in the diagnosis of dental caries in dental office settings.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A laser fluorescence caries detection device is a laser, a fluorescence detector housed in a dental handpiece, and a control console that performs device calibration, as well as variable tone emitting and fluorescence measurement functions. The intended use of the device is to aid in the detection of tooth decay by measuring increased laser induced fluorescence.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II, subject to the following special controls:(1) Sale, distribution, and use of this device are restricted to prescription use in accordance with § 801.109 of this chapter;
(2) Premarket notifications must include clinical studies, or other relevant information, that demonstrates that the device aids in the detection of tooth decay by measuring increased laser induced fluorescence; and
(3) The labeling must include detailed use instructions with precautions that urge users to:
(i) Read and understand all directions before using the device,
(ii) Store probe tips under proper conditions,
(iii) Properly sterilize the emitter-detector handpick before each use, and
(iv) Properly maintain and handle the instrument in the specified manner and condition.

- 1. Identification of the Device: Proprietary-Trade Name: KaVo DIAGNOdent® 2190 Classification Name: Dental Hand Instrument, Laser Fluorescence Caries Detection Device, Product Codes NTK Common/Usual Name: Laser fluorescence caries detection device
- 2. Equivalent legally marketed device: DIAGNOdent® 2095, K983658.
- 3. Indications for Use (intended use): For use as an aid in the diagnosis of dental caries.
- 4. Description of the Device: This submission is for a modification of a device system cleared under K983658, the DIAGNOdent® 2095. The modification is in the form of a new method of packaging the device, in the form of a pen-like device instead of the former electronic unit with a fiber optic probe.
Image /page/0/Picture/7 description: The image shows two different DIAGNOdent devices. On the left is the Predicate DIAGNOdent 2095, which has a screen and a probe. On the right is the DIAGNOdent 2190, which is a handheld device with a screen. Both devices are used for dental diagnostics.
