More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and intended use focus on the material composition and application for dental repairs, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

No
The device is a resin tooth bonding agent used for intraoral repairs of fractured dental restorations, which is a restorative rather than therapeutic application.

No
Explanation: The device, CLEARFIL REPAIR, is described as a resin tooth bonding agent intended to improve retention of restorative materials for intraoral repairs. Its function is to facilitate repair, not to diagnose a condition.

No

The device description explicitly states it is composed of materials like dimethacrylate monomers, which are physical substances, not software.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a device used for intraoral repairs of dental restorations (crowns, bridges, inlays, onlays). This is a direct application within the mouth for structural repair.
  • Device Description: The device is classified as a "resin tooth bonding agent" and is intended to be "painted on the interior of a prepared cavity of a tooth to improve retention of restorative materials." This further reinforces its use in direct dental procedures.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.

IVD devices are used outside the body to analyze samples for diagnostic purposes. This device is used inside the body for restorative purposes.

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 (PMA), 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 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
