## Dear Daniel Kamm:
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 (the 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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database available at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to 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.
Additional information about changes that may require a new premarket notification are provided in the FDA guidance documents entitled "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99812/download) and "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Software Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99785/download).

- 4. Description: These are hand-held portable battery operated x-ray generators for dental purposes. The Portable Dental X-Ray is an X radiation controlled emissions generator system, i.e., once put into service, is intended to be moved from one location to another by a person, used together with appropriate capture devices to generate intraoral radiological images for dental assessment, diagnosis and treatment. This equipment has exposure programs that can be applied to a variety of patients and has predefined exposure parameters depending on the type of patient. The operator is free to change these parameters depending on the situation. The equipment's human-machine interface consists of a control panel located on the top of the equipment, a local trigger button and a
{4}------------------------------------------------
remote trigger (hard wired). The triggers are "dead-man" triggers, meaning they release and interrupt the exposure. The Portable Dental X-Ray was designed to be used in adult and children patients by trained dentists and dental technicians to produce X-ray images for diagnosis. The Portable Dental X-Ray is indicated for the production of intraoral medical images of teeth, mandible and oral structures; it assists in the diagnosis of diseases, planning of surgical treatment and monitoring. It is exclusively for dental use, and must be used and handled by qualified and trained health professionals according to the User Manual.
Principles of operation: The Portable Dental X-Ray is an autonomous X-ray emitting system, used to produce radiographic images. The X-ray beam passes through the patient's body, where a part of the X-rays is absorbed or spread by internal structures, and the rest of the X-rays are transmitted to a detector (e.g., a film, digital sensor or phosphorous plate) for recording or further processing by a computer. The generator can be used with any of the three detector technologies that require technique factors within the range of capabilities of these models.
Image receptor compatibility: These devices will work with film, image receptor plates, and digital image receptors within the technique capability of the generator, which is 60 or 65 kVp and 2.5 mA with up to a 1 second exposure time. For example, a typical digital image receptor can work effectively at 60 kVp, 2.5 mA, 0.2 seconds, well within the capability of these generators.
