Philips Oral Healthcare, Inc. - . Oral-B® ProfessionalCare™Series/Oral-B® AdvancePower™Series Braun GmbH ## Device Description and Technological Characteristics: Oral-B® ProfessionalCare/Oral-B® AdvancePower is a rechargeable electric toothbrush comprised of a charging unit and a rechargeable power unit. The rechargeable power unit is inductively charged and therefore electrically safe in accordance with the Second Edition of the standard for Personal Hygiene and Health Care appliances, UL 1431. The Oral-B® ProfessionalCare/Oral-B® AdvancePower electric toothbrush has an oscillating/rotating technology, a small round brush head that aids tooth-to-tooth cleaning. The brush head is designed to facilitate deeper penetration of interdental areas. The action of the brush head has an oscillation range frequency between 63 to 73 Hz with a vibration frequency of 340 Hz (3800 strokes per minute) and an oscillating range angle of 42° to 60° depending on the toothbrush model. The brush head design is a small circular brush head and features an arrangement of flagged bristles and power tips. The power tips have tufts of longer bristles on either side of the brush head in the outer ring. These power tips have a wear indicator function and are colored with the FDA approved colorant FD&C blue No.2. {1}------------------------------------------------ ### 510(k) SUMMARY Cont'd The flagged bristle tufts have tetralocular filaments and are designed to increase the brushing action on tooth surfaces. The bristle material is Polyamid or PA6.12. The toothbrush features a round handle with anti-slip characteristics for better control in wet conditions and offers a variable range of speeds to best meet individual needs. While power toothbrushes are 510(k) exempt device, we believe the expanded indication for use of treating and preventing gingivitis may exceed the limitation for 510(k) exemption. The expanded indications for use (i.e., treating and preventing gingivitis) are the only changes from the currently marketed devices Oral-B® ProfessionalCare ™Series/Oral-B® AdvancePower™Series. There are no changes to the design, materials or manufacturing process of these devices. #### Indications for Use: To promote good oral hygiene, including plaque removal and treating and preventing gingivitis. #### Testing: Oral-B® ProfessionalCare ™ Series/Oral-B® AdvancePower™ Series powered toothbrushes have been tested in numerous controlled clinical studies. These trials evaluated oral soft and hard tissue for safety, plaque, gingivitis and bleeding. Collectively, these studies demonstrate that the Oral-B® ProfessionalCare™Series/ Oral-B® AdvancePower™Series powered toothbrush is effective at treating and preventing gingivitis. Quality assurance testing on the Oral-B® ProfessionalCare ™Series/Oral-B® AdvancePower™Series electric toothbrush has been conducted to ensure the integrity of products. Oral-B® Professional Care™ Series/Oral-B® AdvancePower™ Series products are rechargeable battery operated toothbrushes. The toothbrush handles are inductively charged so there is no electrical connection between the charger and handle. All electrical components are housed within thermoplastic enclosures and the product is provided with a Listed 1flexible supply cord terminating in a parallel blade attachment plug for connection to a nominal 100-120 V, 50-60 Hz supply source. Oral-B® Professional Care™ Series/Oral-B® AdvancePower™ Series products are evaluated and comply with the applicable requirements to bear the Underwriters Laboratories Inc. Mark (UL 1431). #### Conclusions: The results from these tests support the safety and effectiveness of Oral-B® ProfessionalCare™ Series/Oral-B® AdvancePower™ Series power toothbrush and its substantial equivalence to the predicate device without raising new safety or effectiveness issues. {2}------------------------------------------------ ## 510(k) SUMMARY Cont'd ## Bibliography - 1.
