The EndoVac™ Pure System is intended for the delivery and evacuation of endodontic irrigation solutions during root canal procedures.
Device Story
EndoVac Pure is an apical negative pressure irrigation system for root canal procedures; used by licensed dental professionals in clinical settings. System inputs include irrigation solutions (NaOCl, EDTA) stored in reservoirs; vacuum pressure routed from dental chair system. Device transforms inputs via peristaltic pumps driven by PCBA and FPGA-controlled logic; delivers fluid to root canal while simultaneously evacuating fluid and debris apically to reduce risk of irrigant extrusion. Output is a cleaned root canal. Features include built-in unclogging mechanism, ratcheting slider for working length, and alarm system for low fluid or malfunction. Benefits include improved debris removal and reduced risk of apical extrusion compared to manual methods. Healthcare providers operate the handheld controller to manage fluid delivery and suction.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data; bench testing only. Performance testing included flow rate delivery, suction flow rate, cleaning/disinfection validation, biocompatibility, sterilization validation, shelf life, EMC, ESD, and microcannula suction performance.
Technological Characteristics
Apical negative pressure irrigation system. Materials: AISI 304 stainless steel (microcannula), Polyamide (macrocannula). Energy: 100-240V AC, 50-60Hz. Connectivity: Standalone. Sterilization: Ethylene oxide. Software: FPGA-controlled peristaltic pumps. Standards: ISO 14971, ISO 10993 series, IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 62304, ISO 11135, ISO 14937, ISO 11138, ISO 14161, ISO 11607.
Indications for Use
Indicated for delivery and evacuation of endodontic irrigation solutions and removal of debris of injured or necrotic pulp tissue during root canal procedures in patients requiring endodontic treatment.

#### 9. Conclusion as to Substantial Equivalence
The EndoVac System (K140685) and the proposed EndoVac Pure™ have the same Intended Use: for the delivery and evacuation of endodontic irrigation solutions during root canal procedures. The proposed Indications for Use statement adds "and removing debris of injured or necrotic pulp tissue" to better describe root canal cleaning and the setting and use-site environment where the system is used. The EndoVac Pure™ is a less-complex non-automated technology. The technological characteristics of EndoVac Pure™ are very similar to the predicate EndoVac System (K140685). The proposed EndoVac Pure™ has similarities in select performance characteristics and design features as compared to the predicate. The technological characteristics of EndoVac Pure™ are very similar to the predicate EndoVac (K140685) negative pressure irrigation systems. The EndoVac Pure™ and the predicate EndoVac System (K140685) perform the same function, which is a method to deliver irrigant, rinse and evacuate during root canal procedures. The proposed Endo Vac Pure™ is substantially equivalent to the predicate Endo Vac System (K140685) based on design, performance, biocompatibility testing, and the intended use. Any noted differences in technological characteristics between the proposed and predicate products do not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness. The EndoVac Pure™ and the predicate EndoVac System (K140685) perform the same function. which is a method to deliver irrigant, rinse and evacuate during root canal procedures. Based on biocompatibility studies, identical intended use, and performance characteristics, the Endo Vac Pure™ is substantially equivalent to the predicate EndoVac System (K140685).
