No
The summary describes a dental polishing powder and its intended use with a dental polishing unit. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any other technology typically associated with AI/ML in medical devices. The description focuses on the physical properties and application of the powder.

No
The device is described as "cleaning, polishing and restoring the natural esthetics of tooth enamel," which are cosmetic or maintenance functions, not the treatment or prevention of disease typically associated with therapeutic devices. While it is classified as a Class II medical device, its intended use falls under general dental maintenance rather than therapy.

No
The device is described as cleaning, polishing, and restoring tooth enamel, which are treatment or aesthetic functions, not diagnostic ones. It is used to remove deposits and stains, not to identify medical conditions or diseases.

No

The device description clearly states it is a powder intended for use in dental polishing units, which are hardware devices. It is a physical substance, 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 "Cleaning, polishing and restoring the natural esthetics of tooth enamel." This describes a procedure performed directly on the patient's teeth, not a test performed on a sample taken from the body to diagnose a condition.
  • Device Description: The description clearly states it's a "device intended for use during dental cleaning and periodontal therapy to remove deposits and stains from teeth." This further reinforces its use in a dental procedure on the patient.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), diagnosing diseases, or providing information about a patient's health status based on in vitro testing.

IVD devices are specifically designed to be used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device does not fit that description.

Dear Mr. Petermann:

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 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.

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.
