Intended Use

The Monet Curing Laser is a source of illumination for curing photo-active materials and adhesives.

Device Story

Monet Curing Laser delivers light energy to dental restorative materials/adhesives to initiate photopolymerization. Device uses solid-state laser diode (450 ± 5nm) to generate coherent light at max 2.0 watts (2400 mW/cm²). Optical focusing lens collimates energy into parallel beam; consistent intensity regardless of distance. Includes low-intensity aiming beam for site positioning. Operated by dental clinicians in clinical settings. Powered by detachable rechargeable battery; includes charging stand with integrated radiometer for output verification. Simple interface: one on/off switch, fixed 3-second activation time. Metal construction with glass output window. Benefits include consistent curing depth and reliable polymerization of dental composites.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Depth of cure testing compared Monet laser to VALO curing light using various dental composite brands and shades. Results showed Monet achieved polymerization equal to or better than VALO at lower light intensities.

Technological Characteristics

Solid-state laser diode (450 ± 5nm); max 2.0W output. Metal construction, glass output window. Rechargeable battery power. Optical focusing lens for collimation. Complies with 21 CFR 1040.10/1040.11, IEC 60601-1 (3.1), IEC 60601-1-2 (4), IEC 60601-1-6 (3.1), IEC 60601-2-22 (3), and IEC 60825-1 (2). Non-sterile; uses single-use barrier sleeves.

## Legally Marketed Predicate Devices for Substantial Equivalence:

PRIMARY PREDICATE DEVICE-Valo Grand, manufactured by Ultradent Products, Inc. (K160551)

#### Description of Submitted Device:

The Monet Curing Laser is a device for delivering light energy to dental restorative materials and adhesives, which utilize the light energy to affect a photopolymerization reaction. This energy is generated by a solid-state laser diode, which provides a consistent and reliable generation of laser energy at 450 ± 5nm for a maximum of 2.0 watts (2400 mW/cm²) of energy output. The laser energy is delivered to the dental material by means of an optical focusing lens that collimates the laser energy to a nearly parallel beam size that remains highly consistent regardless of distance to the target material. The device also includes a low-intensity aiming beam feature that allows the operator to see the delivery site of the energy without risk of premature polymerization of the material.

The device features a metal construction with glass output window that contains all device electronics. The device features a simple on/off switch and set 3-second activation time. The device incorporates a detachable rechargeable battery which is recharged on an accompanying charging stand. The charging stand incorporates a basic radiometer to allow the user to confirm the output intensity of the emitted light.

{4}------------------------------------------------

## Indications for Use of the Submitted Device:

The Monet Curing Laser is a source of illumination for curing photo-activated dental restorative materials and adhesives.

### Rationale for Substantial Equivalence:

The submitted device features an identical Indications for Use as the predicate device. The submitted device shares similarities in materials of construction, intended operator, basic design principle of emitting high intensity blue light to initiate a polymerization of the target dental material or adhesive. The submitted device operates from an internal rechargeable battery, the same as the predicate device. The submitted device includes a charging stand to recharge the batteries, the same as the predicate device. The submitted device is capable of photopolymerizing, or curing, the intended dental materials and adhesives, the same as the predicate device.

The submitted device differs from the predicate device in that the submitted device uses a laser diode to generate coherent, narrow spectrum light photons, whereby the predicate device uses a light-emittingdiode to generate non-coherent, broad spectrum light photons. The submitted device differs from the predicate device where the predicate device features more operational controls (number of user interface buttons and indicators) and choices of different emission times and intensities, where the submitted device provides only one interface button and one indicator, and provides for only one emission time and one emission intensity. The submitted device incorporates a low-intensity aiming beam to aid the clinician in positioning the device prior to high-intensity emissions, a feature that is absent from the predicate device. The submitted device includes laser protective eyewear, where the submitted device provides a filter shield that affixes to the device.

#### Performance Data:

## ELECTRICAL SAFETY AND ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY

The Monet Curing Laser is designed to comply with the performance requirements of 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11, with permissible deviations relative to Laser Notice 50, dated June 24, 2007. The device also complies with the recognized standards of IEC 60601-2-22 Edition 3 and IEC 60825-1 Edition 2. The device is designed in compliance to the entirety of IEC 60601-1: Edition 3.1, IEC 60601-1-2 Edition 4, and IEC 60601-1-6 Edition 3.1.

#### PERFORMANCE BENCH TESTING

Depth of cure testing was performed with the Monet and with the VALO curing light, assessing different popular brands of dental composite and lighter and darker shades of composite from each of these brands. Both light sources were activated for a single exposure of the same amount of time. The Monet is capable of achieving polymerization of the tested composites at a level that is generally equal to or better than the VALO while doing so with a lower light intensity.

#### BIOCOMPATIBILITY

The submitted device features the same nature of incidental patient contact as the predicate device. The submitted device is composed of similar materials to that of the predicate device. The submitted

{5}------------------------------------------------

device is intended as a reusable article, the same as the predicate device, except for the single-use barrier sleeve, which is also similar to that of the predicate device.

# END-USER STERILIZATION

No portions or aspects of the submitted device are intended to be sterilized by the end-user prior to use, nor are any portions provided to the end-user in a sterile state. The submitted device includes single-use barrier sleeves to aid in infection control. The barrier sleeve is not provided in a sterile state, and is not intended to be sterilized by the end-user prior to use.

# Conclusion:

The Monet Curing Laser is substantially equivalent to the listed predicate device without raising any new issues of safety or effectiveness. This device shares an identical intended use, similar principles of basic use and function, and similar performance characteristics. The device is designed to comply with relevant federal and international safety and performance standards.
