No
The device description and intended use clearly state it is a light-curing handpiece, and there are no mentions of AI, ML, or image processing.
No.
The device is a handpiece used for curing dental resins, which is a part of a dental treatment but not a device that directly provides therapy for a disease or condition. It's a tool used in a therapeutic process.
No
The device is described as a handpiece for polymerization and curing dental resins, which is a treatment function, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "hand piece with a halogen quartz light source," indicating it is a physical hardware device, not software only.
Based on the provided information, the KaVo PolyLUX II is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is "for polymerization and is intended exclusively for dental treatment in regular dentistry." This describes a device used directly on a patient's teeth to cure dental resins, which is a clinical procedure, not an in vitro diagnostic test.
- Device Description: The description states it's a "hand piece with a halogen quartz light source intended for curing dental resins." This further reinforces its function as a clinical tool for polymerization.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The PolyLUX II does not perform any such analysis of biological specimens.
Therefore, the KaVo PolyLUX II is a dental device used for a clinical procedure, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Dear Ms. Pottala:
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 was ) vice 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.
