The 510(k) summary describes a dental casting alloy, which is a material, not a software or system that would typically incorporate AI/ML. There are no mentions of AI, ML, image processing, or data analysis that would suggest the use of such technologies.
No
Explanation: This device is a dental casting alloy used for preparing removable dental appliances, which is a material used in the creation of a medical device, not a therapeutic device itself.
No
Explanation: The device is a dental casting alloy used for preparing removable dental appliances, not for diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device is described as a "Dental Casting Alloy," which is a material used in the fabrication of dental appliances. This is a physical material, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for the preparation of removable dental appliances in dental laboratories. This is a manufacturing process for a medical device, not a diagnostic test performed on biological samples.
- Device Description: It's a dental casting alloy, a material used in the creation of dental prosthetics.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
- Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status
- Using reagents or assays
IVDs are devices used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. Flexicast Prime is a material used to create a medical device (a partial denture), not to perform a diagnostic test.
