## Indications for Use

The biolitec, Inc. Mega Beam/Ceralas Nonsterile Collimating Handpiece is intended to be used as a fiberoptic laser delivery accessory with the CeralasD 980nm Diode Laser for the dental indications that the laser has already been cleared for in K983058, K991891 and K993002. Please refer to the Laser User Manual for the specific list of indications.

## Device Story

The Mega Beam/Ceralas Nonsterile Collimating Handpiece is a fiberoptic laser delivery accessory designed for use with the CeralasD 980nm Diode Laser. It consists of a 3-meter quartz optical fiber housed within a handpiece. The device incorporates lenses that collimate the laser beam to produce a 7mm spot size. It is operated by dental professionals in a clinical setting to deliver laser energy for cleared dental indications. By collimating the beam, the device provides a consistent spot size for surgical or therapeutic applications, facilitating controlled energy delivery to the target tissue.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Performance data compared the collimating handpiece to a bare fiber optic delivery system, measuring handpiece efficiency, energy density, and divergent half-angle to confirm equivalent performance.

## Technological Characteristics

Consists of a 3-meter quartz optical fiber encased in a handpiece with integrated lenses for beam collimation. Produces a 7mm spot size. Nonsterile delivery accessory for 980nm diode laser systems.

## Regulatory Identification

(1) A carbon dioxide laser for use in general surgery and in dermatology is a laser device intended to cut, destroy, or remove tissue by light energy emitted by carbon dioxide.(2) An argon laser for use in dermatology is a laser device intended to destroy or coagulate tissue by light energy emitted by argon.

Trade/Device Name: Mega Beam/Ceralas Nonsterile Collimating Handpiece Regulation Number: 21 CFR 878.4810 Regulation Name: Laser Surgical Instrument for use in General and Plastic Surgery and in Dermatology Regulatory Class: II Product Code: GEX Dated: January 9, 2002 Received: January 11, 2002

Dear Dr. Morello:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent to 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). 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 (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 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Good Manufacturing Practice for Medical Devices: General (GMP) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic GMP inspections, FDA will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. An 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, but it does not mean that FDA approves your device. Therefore, you may not promote or in any way represent your device or its labeling as being approved by FDA.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, (1) = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = 1 = responsibilities under the Act may be obtained from the Division of Small Manufacturers, International and Consumer Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or at (301) 443-6597.
