Device consists of a plastic handpiece containing an LED engine, cooling fan, and printed circuit board, powered by a wall plug-in transformer. Operator (dental professional) uses a pushbutton trigger to select between two curing modes and activate the light output. Microprocessor-controlled digital circuitry manages LED output, fan operation, and audible timing signals. Device is used in clinical dental settings to polymerize light-cure materials, facilitating restorative procedures. ## Clinical Evidence No clinical data; bench testing only. ## Technological Characteristics LED-based visible light curing unit. Components include LED light engine, cooling fan, printed circuit board, and microprocessor. Features two selectable curing modes with specific output, fan, and audible timing parameters. Powered by wall plug-in transformer. Handpiece constructed of molded plastic. ## Regulatory Identification An ultraviolet activator for polymerization is a device that produces ultraviolet radiation intended to polymerize (set) resinous dental pit and fissure sealants or restorative materials by transmission of light through a rod. ## Predicate Devices - Kerr Corporation, Demetron I.D.S. ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).

KO 63116 DEC - 5 2006 ## Section III - 510(k) Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Submitter: Sybron Dental Specialties, Inc. 100 Bayview Circle, Suite 6000 Newport Beach, California 92660 (949) 255-8766 - Phone (949) 255-8763 - Facsimile Colleen Boswell - Contact Person Date Summary Prepared: October 2006 ## Device Name: - Trade Name Demetron A. 2 . - Common Name L.E.D. Curing Light . - Classification Name Ultraviolet activator for polymerization, per 21 CFR § 872.6070 . ## Devices for Which Substantial Equivalence is Claimed: - . Kerr Corporation, Demetron I.D.S. ## Device Description: The Demetron A.2 is a Light Emitting Diode (LED) visible light curing unit used for the polymerization of light-cure materials. The Demetron A.2 consists of an LED curing handpiece and wall plug-in transformer. The plastic molded handpiece will contain an LED light "engine", a cooling fan and a printed circuit board. A digital circuit and microprocessor will be utilized to control two (2) different curing modes. Each mode specifies LED curing output, fan, and audible beep timing. A pushbutton "trigger" switch will be used to select the curing mode and activate the LED curing output. ### Intended Use of the Device: The intended use of Demetron A.2 is for the polymerization of visible light-cure materials by dental professionals. ## Substantial Equivalence: Demetron A.2 is substantially equivalent to other legally marketed devices in the United States. Demetron A.2 functions in a manner similar to and is intended for the same use as the Demetron I. D.S. designed by Kerr Corporation. {1}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/1/Picture/11 description: The image shows the seal of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).

Food and Drug Administration 9200 Corporate Boulevard Rockville MD 20850 Ms. Colleen Boswell Director, Regulatory Affairs Sybron Dental Specialties, Incorporated 100 Bayview Circle, Suite 6000 Newport Beach, California 92660 DEC - 5 2006 Re: K063116 Trade/Device Name: Demetron A.2 Regulation Number: 21 CFR 872.6070 Regulation Name: Ultraviolet Activator for Polymerization Regulatory Class: II Product Code: EBZ Dated: October 11. 2006 Received: October 12, 2006 Dear Ms. Boswell: . . . . . We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. {2}------------------------------------------------ Page 2 -- Ms. Colleen Boswell Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies.
