Intended Use

The Avante LED curing light is used as a light activation system for dental restorative resins.

Device Story

Avante LED curing light; cordless, compact dental device; uses light-emitting diode technology to polymerize dental restorative resins. Input: user-selected timer settings (1-40 seconds). Operation: LED emits light at 470nm peak; minimum output 1,000 mW/cm2. Output: light energy for curing composite materials. Used by dentists/dental staff in clinical settings. Includes charging stand with integrated radiometer display to verify output. Powered by lithium-ion batteries (45-minute average runtime). Accessories include interchangeable light guides of varying diameters. Benefits: portability, cordless design, and efficient curing times (typically 10 seconds).

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. No clinical data provided.

Technological Characteristics

LED-based light curing system; peak wavelength 470nm; minimum output 1,000 mW/cm2; cordless, battery-powered (lithium-ion); includes integrated radiometer for output verification; adjustable timer (1-40 seconds); interchangeable light guides.

Indications for Use

Indicated for use as a light activation system for dental restorative resins in a clinical dental setting.

Regulatory Classification

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.

#### 6.0 510(K) SUMMARY

The Avante LED curing light performs the same intended function as its predicate device, Versalux (reference K010133). Both devices are both used as a light activation system for dental restorative resins.

The physical features of the Avante LED curing light provide the dentist with a compact shape and cordless design to facilitate ease of use while using standard light emitting diode technology for optimum curing functions. The Avante LED curing light provides minimum output of 1.000 MW/cm2 which results in typical curing times of 10 seconds for most composite materials. Peak output is measured at 470nm. Curing time can be set between 1- 40 seconds for greater versatility in individual applications.

Accessories include the Avante light guides which are available in four diameters to accommodate dentist preference and use.

The effective portability of the Avante LED curing light is maintained through use of a charging light which is incorporated into the device stand. Included as well in the charging light is a radiometer display to verify proper light output. Lithium-ion batteries power the device and provide 45 minutes on average between charging times.

A review for safety and effectiveness was performed and found not to have been affected.

Dear Mr. Moreau:

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.
