K151987 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the DCI Edge Dental Chair with Operative Unit. Classified as Chair, Dental, With Operative Unit (product code KLC), Class I - General Controls.

Submitted by Dci (Newberg, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on June 1, 2016 after a review of 320 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Dental FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 872.6250 - the FDA dental device regulatory framework. The Traditional 510(k) pathway establishes clearance through substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, without requiring clinical trial data.

Device pattern: Standard predicate-based submission. Elevated predicate reliance profile. This clearance follows a standard predicate-based equivalence path within the Dental review framework, consistent with the majority of Class II 510(k) submissions.
