The summary describes a dental alloy and its intended uses, with no mention of software, algorithms, or any technology related to AI or ML.
No
This device is a material (dental alloy) used by dental technicians to fabricate dental appliances, not a therapeutic device that directly treats a medical condition.
No
Duo Pal 6 is a dental alloy used by dental technicians to fabricate dental appliances; it does not diagnose medical conditions.
No
The device description clearly states it is a "palladium-gold ceramic alloy" and a "dental alloy," indicating it is a physical material, not software.
Based on the provided text, 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, partials) for patients. This is a manufacturing process for a medical device that will be implanted or used within the body, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
- Device Description: The description focuses on the material properties of the alloy for dental restorations, not on analyzing biological samples.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting specific analytes, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's health condition.
IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device is a material used to create a medical device.

# Device Description
Duo Pal 6 is a dental alloy with high contents of noble metals (81,5%) intended for dental technicians to fabricate dental restorations.
it has an indication which ranges from crowns up to long span bridges with two or more pontics and to removable partials. It is free of copper and therefore suitable for telescopic and milling work.
Duo Pal 6 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.
Duo Pal 6 can be veneered with suitable dental ceramics and with dental composites.

Dear Dr. Polzer:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). 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 (1) 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.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements

of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 21 CFR Part 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4613. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639.
