Intended Use

The TD Clip is intended to be used with MATRx or MATRx plus Titration Trays to form a mandibular repositioning device intended to reduce or alleviate snoring and mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in patients 18 years and older. The device is intended to be fitted with assistance from a healthcare professional and used during sleep for a total of less than 30 nights.

Device Story

TD Clip is a temporary mandibular repositioning device used to alleviate snoring and mild to moderate OSA while awaiting a custom oral appliance. The device consists of upper and lower dental titration trays custom-fitted with polyvinyl siloxane impression material; trays are fastened at a target therapeutic position using a clip assembly and pins. Used during sleep for a maximum of 30 nights. The workflow follows an OA Assessment study using the MATRx or MATRx plus system; the healthcare provider fastens the trays at the target protrusive position identified during the study. The patient inserts the device each evening. The device maintains mandibular protrusion to keep the airway open, potentially reducing apnea events and snoring. It is a prescription device fitted by a healthcare professional.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Bench testing only. Testing included simulated aging, environmental conditions, and worst-case loading schemes to ensure structural integrity over 30 nights. Tray removal simulation confirmed 100% of users could remove the device safely. Biocompatibility testing performed per ISO 10993-1.

Technological Characteristics

Mandibular repositioning device; separate upper/lower trays; polyvinyl siloxane impression material; pin-based fastening system with serrated interface. Non-sterile. Biocompatibility per ISO 10993-1. Mechanical design allows for lateral/vertical jaw movement. Adjustable arch width.

Indications for Use

Indicated for adult patients (18+) with mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and snoring. Contraindicated for patients with central sleep apnea, loose teeth, advanced periodontal disease, full dentures, dental implants, TMJ dysfunction syndrome, or severe respiratory disorders.

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.”

The patient uses the temporary oral appliance to alleviate mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea and/or snoring while waiting for a custom oral appliance to be manufactured. The dentist fabricates temporary titration trays consisting of upper and lower dental trays. The trays are custom fit to the patient using polyvinyl siloxane impression material. {4}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/4/Picture/0 description: The image shows the logo for Zephyr Sleep Technologies. The logo features the word "ZEPHYR" in a large, sans-serif font, with the words "Sleep Technologies" in a smaller font underneath. To the right of the text is a stylized image of a crescent moon and a star. Below the logo is the address "#102. 701 - 64th Avenue SE, Calgary, AB, T2H 2C3, Canada". The healthcare provider may use the clip assembly to fasten the titration trays at the target therapeutic position to form the TD Clip temporary oral appliance. Patients may use the temporary oral appliance as treatment while waiting for their custom oral appliance. Adjustment of the position requires the setting of a new TD Clip by the healthcare professional. In the expected workflow, the patient first completes an OA Assessment study with the MATRx or MATRx plus system. The healthcare provider then takes the titration trays used in the overnight OA Assessment study and fastens them at the intended target protrusive position for temporary treatment. ### Indications for Use: The TD Clip is a mandibular repositioning device intended to reduce or alleviate snoring and mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in patients 18 years and older. The device is intended to be fitted with assistance from a healthcare professional and used during sleep for less than 30 nights. ### Patient Population: The TD Clip is intended to be used on adult patients upon referral from their healthcare provider. # Contraindications: The device is contraindicated for patients who: - . have central sleep apnea - . have loose teeth or advanced periodontal disease - have full dentures or dental implants - have temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction syndrome - have severe respiratory disorders - are under 18 years of age ● #### Comparison to Predicate Device: The TD Clip is substantially equivalent to the predicate, Apnea Guard.
