Description of Device: The Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis System is an air polishing unit that delivers an air/water/powder mixture at the air polishing insert tip that polishes the tooth enamel without direct contact of the device. The system is used with water-soluble prophy powders such as Cavitron® PROPHY-JET® Sodium Bicarbonate Prophy Powder (K970342) or Cavitron® JET-Fresh® Aluminum Trihydroxide Prophy Powder (K014188) (for patients with low sodium requirements). Updated design features on the Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis System include a Tap-On™ Wireless Foot Pedal, prophy mode auto cycles, an illuminated diagnostic display, automated purge function, Cavitron® JET-Mate™ detachable sterilizable handpiece (K023697), and a swivel handpiece cable with more precise lavage control. Upon installation, the Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis System unit is connected to external air and water lines, as well as an AC power cord. #### Intended Use: 5. The Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis System is designed for use in general prophylaxis and periodontal treatments and other areas of operative dentistry. It can also be used for: - Stain removal, . - Prophylaxis of orthodontic patients, . - Preparing tooth surfaces prior to bonding and sealant procedures, and . - . Implant debridement #### Identification of Risk Analysis Method: 6. Risk analysis was performed on the Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis System utilizing an FMEA process based on ISO 14971. The results of the risk analysis performed on the Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis System concluded that all device design controls and process controls will be able to mitigate known potential failures and effects. In addition, performance testing and electrical safety testing were performed to mitigate other potential risks. #### Description of Safety and Substantial Equivalence: 7. #### Technological Characteristics: 7.1 The technological characteristics of the Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis System are very similar to the predicate devices; Cavitron® SPS Ultrasonic Scaler and Prophy Jet (K970342) and Cavitron® RF Ultrasonic Scaler with Sterimate Handpiece (K052334). All devices operate by the use of a foot pedal. The foot pedal in the Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis System and the predicate Cavitron® RF Ultrasonic Scaler with Sterimate Handpiece (K052334) can be connected to the system with a wire or by wireless means. The foot pedals of the Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis System and the predicate Cavitron® SPS Ultrasonic Scaler and Prophy Jet (K970342) have a two position operation. The first position is for rinsing, and second position is for air polishing. The Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis System and the predicate Cavitron® SPS Ultrasonic Scaler and {2}------------------------------------------------ Prophy Jet (K970342) both utilize the same water-soluble air polishing prophy powders and air polishing insert. The Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis System and the predicate Cavitron® RF Ultrasonic Scaler with Sterimate Handpiece (K052334) both have a handpiece which can be removed to autoclave. Both the Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis System and the predicate Cavitron® SPS Ultrasonic Scaler and Prophy Jet (K970342) have a selector pointer on the top of the powder bowl which determines the amount of prophy powder which can be delivered to the patient. Both systems require the same input air and water pressure to function correctly. The Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis System and the predicate Cavitron® RF Ultrasonic Scaler with Sterimate Handpiece (K052334) have lavage control on the handpiece to select a water flow rate for system operation,. All lavage controls deliver the same range of water flow to the patient. The proposed Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis system has added indications for stain removal, prophylaxis of orthodontic patients, preparing tooth surfaces prior to bonding and sealant procedures, and implant debridement. Although these indications are not included in the cleared indications of the air polishing predicate Cavitron® SPS Ultrasonic Scaler and Prophy Jet (K970342), they are cleared indications for newer air polishing devices. Specifically, the Satelec Air-N-Go dental prophylaxis handpiece (cleared under premarket notification K110379) and the EMS Medical Systems Air-Flow Master Piezon (cleared under premarket notification K110173) include indications for the removal of, "soft deposits and areas of discoloration", the preparation of teeth for, "conventional dental procedures such as the placement of composite fillings", "plaque and stain removal for orthodontic patients", and "cleaning of implant fixtures" and abutments. There are also multiple literature references that make a case for the safety of cleaning implants using an air polishing device. #### Non-Clinical Performance Data: 7.2 Performance testing focused on verification of design, stain removal, enamel abrasion, function and safety of the Cavitron® Prophy-Jet® Air Polishing Prophylaxis System. Below is a summary of the testing performed: - IEC 60601-1-2 Medical Electrical Equipment PART 1-2: General . Requirements for Basic Safety and Essential Performance Collateral Standard: Electromagnetic Compatibility (2007) - IEC 60601-1 Medical Electrical Equipment Part 1:General requirements . for basic safety and essential performance (2005) - FDA -- Guidelines for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software .
