Intended Use
Porta IP Solder V-2 is intended for use as a solder before firing in operations in which dental ceramic alloy(s) parts are joined to form a dental restoration. It should be used only together with recommended dental alloys with suitable melting ranges and compositions.
Device Description
Porta IP Solder V-2 is a dental brazing alloy, that can be used by dental technicians to fabricate dental appliances for patients. It is a yellow alloy with very high contents of precious metals (Gold, Platinum, Iridium and Silver: 99,4%). Porta IP Solder V-2 is suitable for use as a filler material in operations in which dental alloy(s) parts are joined to form a dental restoration, e.g. bridges. It is intended as solder before firing for dental ceramic alloys with appropriate melting ranges and compositions, especially Porta Geo Ti, Porta SMK 82, Portalloy 54, and Simidur S1S and Simidur KF plus, which are manufactured by Wieland Dental + Technik GmbH & Co. KG, Germany. Porta IP Solder V-2 is highly corrosion resistant. It fully complies to the international standard ISO 9333 and fulfills the essential requirements of the European directive 93/42/ECC concerning medical devices.

No
The device description and intended use clearly define it as a dental brazing alloy (solder) used for joining dental alloy parts. There is no mention of any software, algorithms, or data processing capabilities that would indicate the presence of AI or ML. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" field is explicitly marked as "Not Found".

No
The device is described as a "dental brazing alloy" and "filler material" used to join dental alloy parts, not for treating or diagnosing a medical condition. Its function is to fabricate dental appliances.

No
Porta IP Solder V-2 is a dental brazing alloy used to join dental alloy parts to form a dental restoration. It is a material used in the fabrication of a dental device, not a device used to diagnose a medical condition.

No

The device description clearly identifies Porta IP Solder V-2 as a dental brazing alloy, which is a physical material used in dental restorations, not a software application.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to join dental ceramic alloy parts to form a dental restoration. This is a process performed on materials outside of the human body to create a medical device (the dental restoration).
  • Device Description: The description clearly states it's a "dental brazing alloy" used by "dental technicians" to "fabricate dental appliances." This further reinforces its use in a laboratory or clinical setting for creating a device, not for testing samples from the human body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting diseases, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status.

IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device's function is purely related to the fabrication of a dental prosthesis.

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 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.
