The summary describes a material (thermoplastic resin) and its use in a fabrication process (injection molding/pressing). There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any software-driven analytical capabilities.
No.
The device is a material (resin) used for fabricating temporary dental prostheses, not a therapeutic device itself.
No
The text describes a material for fabricating temporary dental prostheses, not a device used for diagnosing a medical condition.
No
The device description clearly states it is a thermoplastic resin material used in an injection molding or pressing device, indicating it is a physical material and 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 for the fabrication of temporary dental prostheses (partial denture clasps, temporary crowns, and bridges). This is a manufacturing process for a medical device, not a diagnostic test performed on a biological sample.
- Device Description: The device is a thermoplastic resin used to fabricate prostheses. This describes a material used in a manufacturing process, not a diagnostic reagent or instrument.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
- Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Detecting or measuring analytes
- Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or prognosis of a disease or condition.
The Polycarb material is a component used in the creation of a dental device, which is a different category of medical device than an IVD.

Dear Mr. Bowers:
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.
