It functions by flushing out debris, disinfecting the canal, and removing the smear layer created during instrumentation. The device is used in a dental clinic setting by a dentist or endodontist. The clinician applies the solution to the root canal system to facilitate cleaning and disinfection, which aids in the success of the root canal procedure and benefits the patient by reducing microbial load and preparing the canal for obturation. ## Clinical Evidence No clinical data. Evidence consists of bench testing, including biocompatibility testing per ISO 10993, in vitro antimicrobial testing against Enterococcus faecalis, and comparative smear layer removal testing against the predicate device. ## Technological Characteristics Aqueous liquid solution; clear, green, odorless; slightly basic pH. Shelf life of 2 years. No electronic, software, or mechanical components. ## Predicate Devices - QMix 2in1 Endodontic Irrigating Solution ([K103244](/device/K103244.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).

Submitter's Identification: Essential Dental Systems 89 Leuning Street South Hackensack, NJ 07606 Date Summary Prepared: December 22, 2014 Date Summary Revised: February 11, 2015 Contact: Mr. Jeffrey Wan Contact Email: jwan@edsdental.com Contact Phone #: 201-487-9090 ext. 118 Contact Fax #: 201-487-5120 #### 2. Name of the Device: Trade name: IrritroI™ Common name: Cleanser, Root Canal CFR Number: N/A Device class: Unclassified Product Code: KJJ #### 3. Predicate Device Information: 1. QMix 10 2in1 Endodontic Irrigating Solution, Dentsply International, K103244 #### 4. Device Description: Irritrol™ is an aqueous solution for use during the irrigation phase of endodontic root canal preparation procedures. This multi-purpose device disinfects the root canal, flushes out any loosened debris, and removes the smear layer produced from root canal instrumentation. #### 5. Intended Use: Irritrol 110 is intended to cleanse and disinfect root canal systems after endodontic instrumentation. {4}------------------------------------------------ ### 6. Comparison to Predicate Devices: A comparison of Irritrol™ and the 510(k) cleared QMix™ 2in1 Endodontic Irrigating Solution indicates the following similarities and differences to the device which received 510(k) clearance: Irritrol™ is similar to the predicate device QMix™ 2in1 Endodontic Irrigating Solution in that they are both aqueous solutions intended as endodontic irrigants to cleanse and disinfect root canal systems. Two active ingredients contained in the proposed device are also found in the predicate device. Irritrol 100 is different from the predicate device QMix 100 2in1 Endodontic Irrigating Solution in the secondary components in their respective formulations. All of the components found in the predicate devices have been used in legally marketed devices and were found safe for dental use. We believe that prior use of components in legally marketed devices, the performance and biocompatibility data provided support the safety and effectiveness of Irritrol™ for the indicated uses. | | Proposed Device | Predicate Device | |------------------------|-----------------------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------| | 510(k) | K150020 | K103244 | | Device Name | IrritrolTM | QMixTM 2in1 Endodontic Irrigating

Discussion of Non-Clinical Tests Performed for Determination of Substantial Equivalence are as Follows: Biocompatibility testing, in vitro antimicrobial testing, and smear layer removal testing were conducted to determine equivalence of Irritrol "" to the predicate device QMix 100 2in1 Endodontic Irrigating Solution. The results of five biocompatibility tests according to ISO 10993 demonstrate equivalence in safety to the predicate device. {5}------------------------------------------------ The results of comparative in vitro antimicrobial testing between Irritrol™ and QMix™ demonstrate equivalence in their ability to suppress the growth of Enterococcus faecalis. The results of comparative smear layer removal testing between Irritrol™ and QMix™ demonstrate equivalence in their ability to remove smear layer from instrumented root canals. ## 8. Discussion of Clinical Tests Performed: Not Applicable ## 9. Conclusions: Irritrol™ is substantially equivalent to the currently cleared and marketed QMix™ 2in1 Endodontic Irrigating Solution. --- **Source:** [https://fda.innolitics.com/device/K150020](https://fda.innolitics.com/device/K150020) **Published by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com)** — a medical-device software consultancy.
