Intended Use

Aseptico's AEU-925 VCT can be used for a wide range of dental procedures including; 1) Dental endodontic surgeries, such as drilling into the root canal. 2) General dentistry, such as removing carious material from the dentine. 3) Performing dental implant surgeries, such as perforating the bone, and tapping and threading procedures required before placement of implant prosthetics.

Device Story

AEU-925 VCT is a programmable dental system for controlling low-voltage dental motor speed, direction, and torque. Used in dental clinics by dentists; system manages endodontic and implant procedures. Inputs include operator-selected modes (Implant/Endodontic), foot control signals (water on/off, direction, preset scrolling), and voice commands for preset navigation. Device features built-in dynamometer for calibration, water pump for irrigation, and memory library for speed/torque settings to prevent file/implant overtightening. Connectivity to PC allows setting updates. Output is controlled motor operation; provides irrigation. Benefits include procedural precision and reduced risk of mechanical failure during endodontic/implant tasks.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; bench testing only.

Technological Characteristics

Programmable digital control system for low-voltage dental motors. Features: built-in dynamometer for calibration, integrated water pump, foot control (AE-19), and autoclavable motor (AE-9A-30). Connectivity: PC interface for setting uploads. User interface: voice command support and preset memory library. Energy source: low-voltage electrical.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients undergoing dental endodontic surgeries, general dentistry procedures (e.g., caries removal), and dental implant surgeries (e.g., bone perforation, tapping, threading).

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.

Date Prepared: September 16, 2002

Trade or Proprietary Name: Aseptico VCT Versatile Control Technology Model AEU-925

Classification Name: 872.4200 Dental Handpiece and Accessories

## Description of characteristics

This programmable dental system digitally controls the speed, direction and torque of a low voltage dental motor. Each dental system has programmed into memory a library of speed and torque settings for commonly used Endodontic files and dental implants. The AEU-925 can also be programmed by the dentist to hold in memory six speed and torque settings that they prefer to use most. The speed and torque limiting features are intended to reduce overtightening of Endodontic files and dental implants.

List of features:

- 1) Stores speed and torque settings in its "Library" that can be recalled later
- 2) Allows the operator to select the "mode" of operation from either "Implant" or "Endodontic" operation.
- 3) Has a built in dynamometer to calibrate the handbiece, motor and console prior to use.
- 4) Uses the autoclavable motor AE-9A-30.
- 5) Has a built in water pump to provide irrigation
- 6) Allows connectivity to a personal computer to upload new settings,
- 7) Foot control AE-19 can be used to activate water on/off, change forward/reverse direction of the drill, scroll through various presets that are in the program menu,
- 8) Allows the operator to use voice commands to step through library of preset speed and torque values.
