Intended Use

TORQTECH transmits rotation of the motor to dental burrs and reamers which cut or grind teeth or dentures with the same or transformed rotation.

Device Story

TORQTECH is a dental handpiece designed for polishing, grinding, and drilling teeth or dentures. The device attaches to an electric or air-powered dental motor; it transmits rotational force from the motor through a clutch to a rotor shaft. Dental burrs or reamers are chucked onto the shaft to perform clinical procedures. Available in straight (ST-DH) and angled/geared (CA-DC, CA-DC-O, CA-51F-O) models; geared models vary by angle and rotation. An optional headlight is available, powered via a light-guide from the motor. Used in dental clinics by dentists or dental professionals. The device provides mechanical rotation to dental instruments, enabling precise tooth or denture modification. Includes an LS spray for lubrication, containing fatty acid ester, mineral oil, and propellants (propane, butane, isobutane).

Clinical Evidence

No clinical tests were performed. Evidence consists of bench testing and compliance with international standards, including ISO 7785-2 (handpiece performance), ISO 14971 (risk management), and ISO 10993 (biocompatibility/cytotoxicity/sensitization/irritation for the lubricant spray).

Technological Characteristics

Mechanical dental handpiece; straight and geared angle configurations. Materials evaluated per ISO 10993-1. Standards met: ISO 7785-2 (handpiece performance), ISO 3964 (coupling dimensions), ISO 14971 (risk management), ISO 17664 (reprocessing), EN 980/1041 (labeling). Energy source: external electric or air-powered dental motor. Includes optional light-guide. Lubricant spray contains fatty acid ester, mineral oil, and hydrocarbon propellants (propane, butane, isobutane).

Indications for Use

Indicated for dental professionals to perform cutting, grinding, or polishing of teeth or dentures using dental burrs or reamers attached to an electric or air-powered motor.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A dental handpiece and accessories is an AC-powered, water-powered, air-powered, or belt-driven, hand-held device that may include a foot controller for regulation of speed and direction of rotation or a contra-angle attachment for difficult to reach areas intended to prepare dental cavities for restorations, such as fillings, and for cleaning teeth.

The TORQTECH has been classified as non-exempt Class 1 devices. Device classification: 21CFR 872.4200 Dental handpiece and accessories 872 Dental Devices Device classification panel: {1}------------------------------------------------ ### 6. DEVICE DESCRIPTION/SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE # DEVICE DESCRIPTION The TORQTECH device is a dental handpiece to be attached to an electric or air powered dental motor, designed for polishing, grinding, and drilling of teeth/dentures. The device transmits rotational force from the motor to the rotor shaft through a clutch, and the dental burrs or reamers chucked on the shaft are able to polish, grind or cut the teeth/dentures of the patient receiving these rotations. There are two types of the TORQTECH device: one is a "straight" linear model (Model ST-DH) while the other is angled and geared (Models CA-DC, CA-DC-O, and CA-5IF-O). The geared models vary based on angle and rotation due to the gear between the clutch and rotor shaft. An optional headlight is available, fed through the light-guide from the motor portion. # SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE The TORQTECH and its predicate devices have similar general intended uses, similar principles of operation, and similar technological characteristics. Although there are minor differences in the characteristics of the TORQTECH and its predicate devices, these differences do not raise new questions of safety or. effectiveness. The TORQTECH is substantially equivalent to the following devices: (1) Kaltenbach & Voight GmbH's "INTRAmatic," "INTRAcompact," and "GENTLEpower" (K#080677) for purposes of performance characteristics; and (2) J. Morita Manufacturing Corp.'s own "Twinpower Turbine" handpiece (K#061701) for purposes of biocompatibility of materials (3) J. Morita Manufacturing Corp.'s own "AR Spray" (included as part of K#070074) and KAVO "KavoQuattrocare" spray (K#012308) for purposes of the LS Spray that is included with the TORQTECH device. Two charts identifying the specific characteristics of these various devices appear below: {2}------------------------------------------------ | Technological Characteristics of Handpiece | Comparison result | | |--------------------------------------------------|-------------------|-----------| | | K080677 | K061701 | | Indication for use | Similar | - | | Target population | Identical | - | | Design | Similar | - | | Materials | Unknown | Identical | | Performance | Similar | - | | Sterility | Similar | Similar | | Biocompatibility | Unknown | Identical | | Mechanical safety | Similar | - | | Chemical safety | Similar | Identical | | Anatomical sites | Similar | - | | Human factors | Similar | - | | Energy used and/or delivered | Similar | - | | Compatibility with environment and other devices | Similar | - | | Where used | Identical | - | | Standards met | Unknown | - | | Electrical safety | N/A | - | | Thermal safety | Unknown | - | The information above demonstrates that the TORQTECH device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device K#080677 in technological characteristics and is substantially equivalent to K#061701 in regard to materials.

INDICATIONS FOR USE TOROTECH transmits rotation of the motor to dental burrs and reamers which cut or grind teeth or dentures with the same or transformed rotation #### 8. SUMMARY OF NON-CLINICAL TESTING The TOROTECH was developed and tested in accordance with the following standards: ISO 7785-2:1995 (dental handpieces - Part 2: straight and geared angle handpieces) ISO 3964 (dental handpieces - coupling dimensions) ISO 14971:2007 (medical devices - application of risk management to medical devices) ISO 10993-1:2203 (biological evaluation of medical devices -- Part 1: evaluation and testing) ISO 10993-5:2009 (biological evaluation: test for in vitro cytotoxicity) ISO 10993-12:2007 (biological evaluation: sample preparation and reference materials) ISO 17664:2004 (information to be provided by the manufacturer for the processing of resterilizable medical devices) EN 980:2008 (graphical symbols for use in the labeling of medical devices) EN 1041:2008 (information supplied by the manufacturer with medical devices) The spray used with the TORQTECH device is considered a mucosal contacting substance of less than 24 hour duration under Annex A of ISO 10993-1: 2009. Results of sensitization and irritation testing under ISO 10993-1 showed the spray to not cause sensitization and that it is not an irritant. The cytotoxicity test results under ISO 10993-1, combined with risk analysis under ISO 14971:2007, demonstrate that the spray is suitable for the clinical application. Finally, with respect to the propellants in the spray, the same gases have been cleared for use in the Kavo predicate device K#012308. {4}------------------------------------------------ K103697 ### 9. SUMMARY OF CLINICAL TESTING No clinical tests were performed for the TORQTECH device. ### 10. CONCLUSION The information above demonstrates that the TORQTECH device is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices. 40784440.doc {5}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/5/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.
