The summary describes a dental casting alloy, which is a material, not a software-based device, and there are no mentions of AI, ML, or related concepts.
No
This device is a material (ceramic dental casting alloy) used in the fabrication of dental restorations, not a therapeutic device itself.
No
Explanation: The device, Superbond, is a ceramic dental casting alloy used for fabricating dental restorations. Its purpose is to create, not diagnose, dental issues.
No
The device is a ceramic dental casting 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 "for the use in Dental Laboratories, suitable for use in fabrication of metal-ceramic dental restoration." This describes a material used in the creation of a dental device, not a test performed on a biological sample in vitro to diagnose a condition.
- Device Description: While "Not Found" is listed, the intended use clearly points away from an IVD.
- Mentions image processing, AI, DNN, or ML: These are often associated with IVDs that analyze images or data for diagnostic purposes. Their absence further supports it not being an IVD.
- Input Imaging Modality: IVDs often rely on specific imaging modalities. The absence of this information is consistent with a non-IVD device.
- Anatomical Site: While dental restorations are used in the mouth, the device itself is used in the lab to create the restoration, not directly on a patient for diagnosis.
- Intended User / Care Setting: "Dental Laboratories" are where devices are fabricated, not typically where diagnostic tests are performed on patients.
In summary, the intended use and the lack of information typically associated with IVDs strongly indicate that Superbond (Ceramic Dental Casting Alloy) is a material used in the manufacturing process of a dental device, not an in vitro diagnostic test.

Trade/Device Name: Superbond Regulation Number: 21 CFR 872.3710 Regulation Name: Base Metal Alloy Regulatory Class: II Product Codes: EJH Dated: December 11, 2002 Received: January 16, 2003
Dear Mr. Hacopians:
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. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
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. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639.
