# Nonclinical Tests Discussion
Nonclinical tests included:
Performance tests in accordance to international standards ISO 14457: 2012 for air-driven high-speed dental handpieces have been conducted to determine conformance to the standards for the intended use. Biocompatibility and Sterilization studies have been completed using master device samples of the Lares Research 557 and 757 ProStyle model product family of high-speed handpieces. The master device sample Lares Research 557 and 757 ProStyle model high-speed handpiece passed all the applicable tests of ISO 14457: 2012.
# Clinical Test Discussion
No clinical field trials have been conducted with the Lares Research 557 and 757 ProStyle model product family of high-speed handpieces.
Data from predicate device post market surveillance. MDR's. MAUDE, and internal Lares Research product complaint data was reviewed to identify potential safety and effectiveness issues that would need to be addressed. No additional issues were identified and the Risk Assessment report for the Lares Research 557 and 757 ProStyle model product family of high-speed handpieces is a record of this review.
# Conclusion
The Lares Research 557 and 757 Pro-Style model product family of high-speed handpieces has an equivalent intended use and identical operation as well as substantially similar technological specifications as the predicate devices (Lares Research and Kavo 6000B high-speed handpiece products).
