No
The device is an etchant used to prepare surfaces of the teeth, not to treat or cure a disease or condition.
No.
The device description clearly states it is an etchant used to prepare surfaces, not to diagnose a condition.
No
The device is a chemical etchant, not a software product. The description clearly states it is a "35% phosphoric acid etchant in a viscous liquid form."
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use/Indications for Use: The intended use is to "etch dentin, enamel and glass ionomer cements." This is a direct application to biological tissues (dentin and enamel) and a material (glass ionomer cements) within the body or on the surface of the body for a therapeutic or preparatory purpose (etching).
- Device Description: The description reinforces the intended use as a material applied to biological structures and a dental material.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue samples, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
IVDs are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the body, not to be applied to the body or materials within the body for treatment or preparation.
