ADX4000 is a battery-powered, handheld dental X-ray system; generates 60 kVp constant potential X-rays for diagnostic imaging. Operated by dentists or dental technicians in clinical settings; handheld or tripod-mounted. User selects exposure time via buttons; device produces X-rays captured by intraoral digital sensors or film. Includes circular scatter shield for radiation protection. Benefits include portability for dental imaging; facilitates diagnostic decision-making by providing extraoral X-ray images.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Device performance verified against 21 CFR 1020.30, 1020.31, and IEC60601-1-3 standards. No clinical data provided.

## Technological Characteristics

Handheld, battery-powered (16.8V DC Li-Polymer) X-ray system. Fixed output 60 kVp, 1 mA. Exposure time 0.01-1.35s. Features circular scatter shield. Dimensions 5.5"H x 6.5"W x 3.2"D; weight 4.4 lbs. Complies with IEC60601-1 (electrical safety) and EN60601-1-2 (EMC).

## Regulatory Identification

An extraoral source x-ray system is an AC-powered device that produces x-rays and is intended for dental radiographic examination and diagnosis of diseases of the teeth, jaw, and oral structures. The x-ray source (a tube) is located outside the mouth. This generic type of device may include patient and equipment supports and component parts.

### CONCLUSION

As can be seen in the comparison table above the DexcoWinA ADX4000 & its suggested predicate, the Nomad, have the same intended use and are nearly technically the same. We therefore believe that the ADX4000 is substantially equivalent to the Nomad.

Re: K070811

Trade/Device Name: ADX4000 Cordless Portable Dental X-ray System Regulation Number: 21 CFR 872.1800 Regulation Name: Extraoral source x-ray system Regulatory Class: II Product Code: MUH Dated: June 18, 2007 Received: June 18, 2007

#### Dear Mr. Mazzafferro:

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 commence 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 movi. therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The grateral 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 (Premarket Approval), 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.

Image /page/2/Picture/10 description: The image shows the FDA Centennial logo, which includes the years 1906-2006. Below the logo, the text "Protecting and Promoting Public Health" is written in a decorative font. The logo is circular and contains the letters FDA in a bold, stylized font. The text is slightly blurred, suggesting it may be part of a larger document or image.

{3}------------------------------------------------

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. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set

forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050,

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at one of the following numbers, based on the regulation number at the top of this letter:

| 21 CFR 876.xxx | (Gastroenterology/Renal/Urology) | 240-276-0115 |
|----------------|----------------------------------|--------------|
| 21 CFR 884.xxx | (Obstetrics/Gynecology)          | 240-276-0115 |
| 21 CFR 894.xxx | (Radiology)                      | 240-276-0120 |
| Other          |                                  | 240-276-0100 |

Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97). You may obtain other general information on your responsibilities under the Act from the Division of Small Manufacturers, International and Consumer Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (240) 276-3150

or at its Internet address http://www.fda.gov/cdrl/industry/support/index.html.
