Intended Use

The Silk'n Toothwave is a powered radiofrequency toothbrush intended to promote good oral hygiene, including reduction of plaque, and the prevention and treatment of gingivitis. The Silk'n Toothwave is intended for over-the-counter use.

Device Story

Silk'n Toothwave is a rechargeable, handheld powered toothbrush; utilizes combination of vibration (up to 400Hz) and low-power radiofrequency (RF) energy (3MHz, max 3W) to promote oral hygiene. Device consists of handle, brush head with integrated RF electrodes/bristles, and charging cradle. Operated by user via push-button; LED indicators provide status updates (RF activation, vibration level, charging, error). RF energy and vibration work to reduce plaque and treat/prevent gingivitis. Used in home environment by lay users. Output is mechanical brushing action combined with RF energy delivery to teeth/gums. Healthcare providers may review clinical outcomes (e.g., calculus reduction) during routine dental visits. Benefits include improved plaque control and gingival health.

Clinical Evidence

Prospective, single-blind, randomized, two-arm study (n=90) evaluated calculus reduction (Volpe-Manhold Index) over 12 weeks. Test group (n=42) used ToothWave; control group (n=45) used a standard powered toothbrush. Results showed statistically significant differences in calculus levels: test group V-MI change was 2.6% at 6 weeks and -1.47% at 12 weeks, compared to 7.7% and 11.26% for the control group, respectively.

Technological Characteristics

Handheld rechargeable toothbrush. RF energy: 3MHz ±0.3MHz, up to 3W. Vibration: 0, 275Hz, 300Hz, or 400Hz. Materials: Brush head with bristles and two hidden RF electrodes with silicon barrier. Electrical safety: IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-2-2, IEC 60601-1-11. Battery: Secondary lithium system (IEC 62133-2). Connectivity: None. Sterilization: Not applicable (consumer device).

Indications for Use

Indicated for individuals seeking to promote oral hygiene, reduce plaque, and prevent or treat gingivitis. Intended for over-the-counter use by the general population.

### Non-Clinical (Bench) Performance Data:

Bench testing was conducted and submitted to the FDA in DEN190039. The purpose of the bench tests was to demonstrate that the Silk'n Toothwave device performs as expected under anticipated conditions of use and to verify that the device performance meets the device design requirements.

The following tests were conducted:

- Validation of the RF performance specifications including output power, . voltage output, radiofrequency, pulse cycle, waveform, and pulse duration;
- Temperature performance testing to evaluate the temperature change of . the device, structures of the oral cavity (including skin, tissue, and dental restorations), and toothpaste under worst-case conditions;
- An assessment of mechanical output specifications and physical . properties including vibration frequency, tuft retention, brush head strength, and battery voltage; and
- . Use life and durability testing.
- Software validation testing .
- Biocompatibility testing .

### Pre-Clinical (Animal) Performance Data:

Animal studies were submitted to the FDA as part of DEN190039. No further animal studies were conducted and submitted in this 510(K)-file submission.

#### Clinical Performance Data:

A single-blinded, double arm randomized prospective study entitled "Safety and Efficacy of the ToothWaveTM Toothbrush (Model H7001) Home Use Device for Reduction of Dental Plaque and Calculus and Treatment and Prevention of Gingivitis ToothWave™ Clinical Study" was conducted and included a usability study. An additional self-selection study was also conducted in "Toothwave Usability and Self-Selection Study", and a clinical report with safety data was provided based on an additional single-blinded, double arm, randomized prospective study to evaluate the device used at the highest frequency.

{9}------------------------------------------------

These studies were submitted in DEN190039.

An additional single-blind, double arm prospective study was conducted to further evaluate the effect of ToothWave™ on calculus. The study was held at the Salus Research Centre, IN, USA, by Kim (RDH, PHD) and Jeff Milleman (DDS, MPA), in subjects with a moderate amount of visible calculus on the tongue side of their lower anterior teeth. Ninety (90) subjects were randomly assigned to either ToothWave™ or the control brush, a powered toothbrush. Treatment was defined as a timed two minutes teeth brushing, twice a day, during a three-month test period, returning at weeks 3, 6 and 12 for safety and Volpe-Manhold Index (V-MI) examinations. Each at home toothbrush session was self- documented in a designated diary.

At the completion of the study, the study result differences between baseline and V-MI examination at 6 and at 12 weeks were statistically significant with the control group (n=45) 7.7% at 6 weeks and 11.26% at 12 weeks vs the test group (n=42) which were 2.6% at 6 weeks and -1.47% at 12 weeks. After the study, participants were advised to return to their regular dentist appointments.

{10}------------------------------------------------

#### Substantial Equivalence:

The currently submitted Toothwave device is the exact same device as the FDA cleared Toothwave, which was previously submitted, and FDA cleared as part of the DeNovo application (DEN190039). Therefore, the current device includes the same design, technological features, user interface and hardware components as the cleared device. The safety features, compliance with safety standards, and all patient contact materials, remain unchanged and since no difference was made in the technological characteristics there are no safety concerns to be considered.

Additional clinical study as specified in the clinical performance data section to evaluate the performance of the ToothWave device on supragingival calculus levels. The clinical study results were added to the device user manual.

Based on the fact that all device characteristics remained unchanged, it can be concluded that the ToothWave device submitted in this 510k application is substantially equivalent to its predicate, the FDA cleared Toothwave device.
