No
The device description and intended use clearly define Auropal 50 as a dental casting alloy, a material used in fabrication, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.
No
Auropal 50 is a casting alloy used by dental technicians to fabricate dental appliances, not a therapeutic device directly intended to treat or prevent a disease or condition.
No
Explanation: The device is a dental alloy used by dental technicians to fabricate dental appliances. It does not perform any diagnostic functions.
No
The device is a dental casting alloy, which is a physical material used to fabricate dental appliances, not a software program.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health, such as diagnosing a disease or monitoring a condition.
- Auropal 50's Intended Use: Auropal 50 is a material used by dental technicians to fabricate dental appliances that are placed in the patient's mouth. It is a material for creating a physical restoration, not for analyzing biological samples.
- Device Description: The description clearly states it's a "dental gold-silver casting alloy" used for "dental restorations."
The information provided about Auropal 50 aligns with it being a medical device, specifically a dental material, but not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

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 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. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97).
