The document describes a dental alloy and its intended use in fabricating dental appliances. There is no mention of AI or ML technology.
No
The device is a gold-palladium ceramic alloy used by dental technicians to fabricate dental appliances, such as crowns and bridges. It is a material for manufacturing medical devices, not a therapeutic device itself.
No
Explanation: The device, EURO 45, is a gold-palladium ceramic alloy used by dental technicians to fabricate dental appliances like crowns and bridges. Its purpose is to be a component of a dental restoration, not to diagnose a condition or disease.
No
The device is a gold-palladium ceramic alloy, which is a physical material used to fabricate dental appliances, not a software program.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for dental technicians to fabricate dental appliances (crowns, bridges, etc.) for patients. This is a manufacturing process for a medical device that will be placed in the patient's mouth.
- Device Description: The description details the material composition and its properties for dental restoration fabrication.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information about a physiological state, health, disease, or congenital abnormality.
IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to analyze biological samples. This device is a material used to create a medical device that will be used in vivo (inside the body).

Device Description
EURO 45 is a gold-palladium ceramic alloy with high contents of noble metals (79,5%) intended for dental technicians to fabricate dental restorations.
lt has an indication which ranges from single crowns up to long span bridges with two or more pontics. It is free of copper and therefore suitable for telescopic and milling work.
EURO 45 is highly corrosion resistant and has an excellent biocompatibility. It fully complies to the international standard ISO 9693 and fulfills the essential requirements of the European directive 93/42/ECC concerning medical devices.
EURO 45 can be veneered with suitable dental ceramics and with dental composites.
