Which regulatory registries list Coltène/Whaledent AG’s devices?

The UDI system helps track and identify medical devices throughout their lifecycle, ensuring transparency in regulatory compliance and traceability for healthcare providers. Listing in this database is a requirement for Class I and Class II devices sold in the US.
How are Coltène/Whaledent AG’s devices classified under FDA regulations?
Coltène/Whaledent AG’s devices are classified as either Class I or Class II under FDA regulations. Class I devices generally pose minimal risk and require general controls for safety and effectiveness, while Class II devices involve a higher risk and may require special controls beyond general regulations. The classification depends on factors like the device’s intended use, potential risks, and the body part it interacts with, such as dental burs or endodontic files.
Why do some of Coltène/Whaledent AG’s devices require special controls like those for Class II?
Certain devices in Coltène/Whaledent AG’s portfolio, such as rotary endodontic files or dental composites, are classified as Class II because they involve higher risks than general dental instruments. For example, endodontic files used in root canal treatments must ensure precise shaping of root canals to avoid complications like perforations or incomplete cleaning. Special controls—like performance standards or post-market surveillance—are applied to mitigate these risks and ensure patient safety.
