No
The device description is for a dental brazing alloy, a material used in dental restorations, with no mention of software, algorithms, or any computational processing.
No
The device is a dental brazing alloy used by dental technicians to join dental alloy parts, not for direct therapeutic effect on a patient.
No
Explanation: The device is a dental brazing alloy intended for joining dental ceramic alloy parts to form a dental restoration. It specifies its use as a "solder before firing" and "filler material," which are manufacturing/fabrication functions, not diagnostic ones. It does not identify or detect diseases or conditions.
No
The device description clearly identifies the device as a "dental brazing alloy" and a "white alloy with high contents of precious metals," indicating it 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 to join dental ceramic alloy parts to form a dental restoration before firing. This is a manufacturing process for a dental appliance, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample from the human body.
- Device Description: The device is described as a "dental brazing alloy" and a "filler material" used by dental technicians to fabricate dental appliances. This aligns with a material used in the creation of a medical device (the dental restoration), not a diagnostic tool.
- Lack of Diagnostic Activity: There is no mention of analyzing a biological sample (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or providing information about a patient's health status or condition.
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.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
Porta Solder 1080 W 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.

Device Description
Porta Solder 1080 W is a dental brazing alloy, that can be used by dental technicians to fabricate dental appliances for patients. It is a white alloy with high contents of precious metals (Gold, Platinum, Iridium and Silver: 88,2%).
Porta Solder 1080 W 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 ceramic dental alloys with appropriate melting ranges and compositions, especially Euro 50, which is manufactured by Wieland Dental + Technik GmbH & Co. KG, Germany.
Porta Solder 1080 W 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.

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.
