More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a dental alloy with physical and mechanical properties, not a software or system that would typically incorporate AI/ML. There are no mentions of AI, ML, image processing, or data sets for training/testing.

No
The device is described as an "inlay, onlay, crown and bridge alloy" intended for manufacturing dental restorations, which are considered prosthetic devices, not therapeutic.

No

The device description indicates AIGIS-SOFT is an alloy used for manufacturing dental prosthetics, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is an "inlay, onlay, 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 for manufacturing dental restorations (inlays, onlays, crowns, bridges, removable partials). This is a manufacturing process for a medical device, not a diagnostic test performed on biological samples.
  • Device Description: The device is described as a dental alloy, a material used to create these restorations.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting diseases, or providing diagnostic information.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on the physical and mechanical properties of the alloy, which are relevant to its use in dental restorations, not diagnostic accuracy.

IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device does not fit that description.

Ciscussion:

Since the composition of the legally marketed alloy and the new device is very similar, it may be assumed that the biological compatibility of the alloys is also very similar.

Conclusion:

The main elements and their concentration are almost identical. AIGIS-SOFT is an inlay, onlay, crown and bridge alloy. This device is dependable 83% gold alloy with a high gold appearance. AIGIS-SOFT is excellent for inlays, three-quarter crowns, long and short-span bridges. AIGIS-SOFT is substantially equivalent to ARGENCO 83 and the minor differences between them do not affect safety or effectiveness.

Dear Mr. Chang:

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.

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.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4613. Also, please note the regulation entitled.
