Intended Use
The SomnoDent G2 is intended for the treatment of nighttime snoring and mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea in patients 18 years of age or older.
Device Story
SomnoDent G2 is a custom-fitted, intraoral mandibular repositioning device used to treat nighttime snoring and mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The device consists of separate upper and lower trays that increase pharyngeal space during sleep, improving airway patency. It features an adjustable coupling mechanism that allows a dentist or physician to set the degree of mandibular advancement (range 6-10mm). The device is worn by the patient at home or in sleep laboratories. By repositioning the lower jaw, the device helps maintain an open airway, potentially reducing snoring and OSA symptoms. It is designed for single-patient, multi-use and is cleaned daily by the patient.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Testing included mechanical force tests to simulate bruxism and evaluate the advancement mechanism, and bond strength testing on the winglets. Results demonstrated that the device performs as well as or better than the predicate device.
Technological Characteristics
Intraoral mandibular repositioner; custom-fitted trays with soft lining on hard acrylic surface; advancement mechanism constructed of biocompatible, medical-grade polycarbonate; adjustable range 6-10mm; permits mouth breathing; upper and lower trays disengage for removal.
Indications for Use
Indicated for treatment of nighttime snoring and mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea in adults 18 years of age or older.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
Intraoral devices for snoring and intraoral devices for snoring and obstructive sleep apnea are devices that are worn during sleep to reduce the incidence of snoring and to treat obstructive sleep apnea. The devices are designed to increase the patency of the airway and to decrease air turbulence and airway obstruction. The classification includes palatal lifting devices, tongue retaining devices, and mandibular repositioning devices.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The special control for these devices is the FDA guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Intraoral Devices for Snoring and/or Obstructive Sleep Apnea; Guidance for Industry and FDA.”

#### Description of the device: ~
The SomnoDent G2 device is an intraoral device intended for the treatment of nighttime snoring and mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea in patients 18 years of age or older. The device functions as a mandibular repositioner, which acts to increase the patient's pharyngeal space during sleep. The increase in the patient's pharyngeal space improves their ability to exchange air during sleep. The device is customized for each intient and has an adjustable coupling mechanism enabling the amount of mandibular advancement to be set by the dentist or physician at the time of fitting the device. The SomnoDent G2 is a modification to the SomnoDent Flex (K073004). The SomnoDent G2 is identical to SomnoDent Flex, except for differences in the adjustment mechanism (which is an addition of a material of construction, which is biocompatible), and a change (which to an dadition of a fifterences introduced by these modifications, when compared to the predicate product, do not introduce new safety issues.
#### Indications for Use:
The SomnoDent G2 is intended for the treatment of nighttime snoring and mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea in patients 18 years of age or older.

#### Substantial equivalence discussion:
The SomnoDent G2 is considered to be substantially equivalent to the SomnoDent Flex device. The SomnoDent G2 and predicate device function as a mandibular repositioner, which acts to increase the patient's pharyngeal space during sleep. The increase in the patient's pharyngeal space improves their ability to exchange air during sleep. The devices are customized for each patient and have an adjustable coupling mechanism enabling the amount of mandibular advancement to be set by the dentist or physician at the time of fitting the device. The SomnoDent G2 is identical to SomnoDent Flex, except for differences in the adjustment mechanism (which is an addition of a material of construction, which is biocompatible), and a change in adjustable range from 6 to 10mm. Any differences introduced by these modifications, when compared to the predicate product, do not introduce new safety issues.
#### Summary of Testing:
To demonstrate substantial equivalence, bench testing was conducted on the advancement mechanism to ensure the device performed as intended and is safe and Testing included a mechanical force test to simulate bruxism, which was effective. determined worst case use, to ensure the wings functioned as designed and withstood appropriate pressures. The results indicated that the subject device performs as well or better than the predicate device. Mechanical testing was conducted on the winglet bond of the subject device. Testing results indicate that the bonds withstand applicable pressures, ensuring the device is safe and effective. In addition, comparative testing around the coupling mechanism was conducted between the subject and predicate The testing concluded that the advancement of the subject device is devices. substantially equivalent to the predicate device with regards to mechanical performance. Testing demonstrates that the subject device, the SomnoDent G2, is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as or better than the predicate device, the SomnoDent Flex.
