#### 4. Description of Device:
The PROPHYflex 4 is an air polishing device/powder jet handpiece that projects a mixture of water and air with sodium bicarbonate, calcium carbonate or fine glycine power onto tooth surfaces. The device includes the handpiece main body with adjustable spray feature, two cannulas, a wrench for installing the cannula, two interchangeable gripping sleeves, powder container with cover, a cleaning burr and nozzle pin, and a set of spare o-rings. An optional adapter and perio tip can be installed for subgingival treatments.
The powder is filled into the powder container by the user. When activated through foot control, air is pushed into the powder container, swirling the powder and pushing it through the device and out of the cannula. The spray is only mixed with the air and powder at the very tip of the cannula, providing an even and gentle cleaning effect. The amount of powder can be regulated via three different spray settings by the adjusting ring, helping the users to perform individual treatments such as subgingival biofilm removal, removal of discoloration and bacterial plaque, orthodontics, cleaning prior to fissure sealing, prosthetics, conservative and aesthetic dentistry by providing the possibility to adjust the cleaning effects to the clinical situation of the patient at hand.
{3}------------------------------------------------
The components of the PROPHYflex 4, including the powder container, is to be completely reprocessed after each use.
The three powder levels are as follows:
- Highest Level: Suitable for supragingival treatment and offers full cleaning power .
- Medium Level: Suitable for sub- and supragingival treatment and enables . gentle cleaning at a reduced powder quantity
- . Lowest Level: Helps rinsing the powder off the tooth and blowing the powder from the system after the treatment
During supraqinqival treatments (e.g. stain removal), the device doesn't touch the patient but will be placed 3 – 5 mm from the area that is to be cleaned. During subgingival treatments (biofilm management) with the perio tip, the tip is inserted into the pocket up to 5mm and angled towards the tooth.

# Principle of Operation / Mechanism of Action:
PROPHYflex 4 connects to a dental treatment unit's tubing via KaVo MULTIflex coupler or a Sirona coupler that supplies air and water to the handpiece separately. The air is redirected through the PROPHYflex 4 main body to the powder container. The powder container – holding the sodium bicarbonate or calcium carbonate or glycine powder – is filled according to the treatment indication. The air draws the powder from the container to the cannula in the front of the handpiece. There, the powder is mixed with water that has been transported from the dental treatment unit coupling system to the tip of the cannula focuses this air, water and powder mixture into a stream. The air and water can be adjusted at the dental treatment unit or via the treatment unit foot control. The powder can be adjusted to 3 different levels using the adjustable ring at the base of the PROPHYflex 4 handpiece.
#### 5. Indications for Use:
The PROPHYflex 4 Handpiece and Accessories is a dental handpiece intended for perform supragingival and subgingival prophylaxis treatments. The prophylaxis treatments are obtained by the projection of water, air and appropriate dental prophylaxis powders, onto the treatment site. PROPHYflex 4 Handpiece and Accessories in supra-gingival configuration is intended for use in the cleaning and polishing of teeth by removal soft deposits and areas of discoloration as well as preparing teeth for fillings or veneers and cleaning fixed bands and brackets on orthodontic appliances. PROPHYflex 4 Handpiece and Accessories in subginqival configuration is indicated for the non-surgical removal of subgingival plaque in pockets up to 5 mm after initial periodontal treatment.

#### 6. Description of Substantial Equivalence: Technological Characteristics:
The proposed device (PROPHYflex 4 Handpiece and Accessories) from Kaltenbach & Voigt GmbH function in a manner similar to and are intended for the same indications for use as the predicate device AIR-FLOW Handy 3.0 Plus (K151912) marketed by E.M.S. Electro Medical Systems S.A.. There are numerous similar design, materials, and technological characteristics such as indications for use, Subgingival usage depth to 5mm, principle of operation, air polishing, max mode operation, internal spray, air/water ports, coupling dimensions, transportation and connections (Air pressure and relative humidity), as the ability to connect to KaVo MULTI-flex coupling and Sirona coupling.
In addition, both the proposed device (PROPHYflex 4 Handpiece and Accessories) and the predicate device AIR-FLOW Handy 3.0 Plus (K151912) provide air for dental handpieces by using a connection according to ISO 7785-1, ISO 14457 and ISO 9168 (2009-07-15 - Dentistry - Hose connectors for air driven dental handpieces). Furthermore, both the proposed device and the predicate device complies with conformance standard DIN 19402 (Powder Jet Handpieces) and ISO 10993-1 (Biological evaluation of medical devices - Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management system).
However, there are different technological characteristics such as the proposed device has a Middle Mode and a Spray-function Mode (without powder, water only) capability where the predicate device does not. The proposed device is 10 mm shorter and 3 mm thinner than the predicate device and as well as being 5.9 dB guitter than the predicate device. The proposed device operating temperature is 18.0°C – 25.1°C where the predicate is 19.93°C – 23.33°C. The Maximum Air Pressure for the proposed device is 3.2 - 5 bar (46 - 73 psi) where the predicate is 2.7 – 3.5 bar (39 – 51 psi). The Air and water supply for the proposed device is 6.4 – 14.3 NI/min and the predicate is 10.3 – 13.5 NI/min. The proposed device Maximum water pressure is 1.0 - 2.5 bar (15 - 36 psi) where the predicate is 1.0 - 2.2 bar (15 - 32 psi). The spray water for the proposed device is 28 – 54 ml/min where the predicate is 106 ml/min.
These different technological characteristics do not raise new concerns of substantial equivalence. The comparison table below (table 5.3) for the PROPHYflex 4 Handpiece and Accessories (proposed device) and the AIR-FLOW Handy 3.0 Plus (K151912) (predicate device) are substantially equivalent in terms of indication for use, technology and performance specifications as the few differences between the proposed device and the predicate device do not impact substantial equivalence. The performance testing results provided in this submission supports that the proposed device performs as well as the predicate devices for its intended use. Hence, the device is deemed to be substantially equivalent to the AIR-FLOW Handy 3.0 Plus (K151912).
Please note, reference device #2 (PROPHYflex 2 and Accessories (K973876)) is references as it has numerous identical features as the Proposed Device (PROPHYflex 4). Reference Device #1 is listed to support the indications for use. Reference devices 3 and 4 (SMARTmatic - K163239 and ELECTROmatic - K163317) are referenced in Biocompatibility section as they contain numerous identical patient contacting materials.
