The summary describes a dental alloy, a material used for restorations, with no mention of software, algorithms, or any computational processing that would involve AI/ML.
No
The device is a dental alloy for restorations, which is a structural material, not a device intended to treat or cure a disease or condition.
No
The 'Intended Use / Indications for Use' states the device is for "Crown and Bridge Dental Restorations," which are treatments, not diagnoses.
No
The device description clearly states it is a "Yellow Crown and Bridge Alloy," which is a physical material, 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 "Precious Alloy for use in Crown and Bridge Dental Restorations." This describes a material used in the body for structural purposes, not a test performed on a sample taken from the body to diagnose a condition.
- Device Description: The description "Yellow Crown and Bridge Alloy" further reinforces that it's a material for dental restorations.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document lacks any mention of typical IVD elements such as:
- Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Detecting or measuring substances in samples
- Providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status
Therefore, this device falls under the category of a dental material used for restorative purposes, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Dear Ms. Rao:
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 vour 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.

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.
