No
The summary describes a film-like varnish for treating tooth sensitivity and does not mention any AI or ML components.

Yes
The device is intended for the treatment of hypersensitive teeth and various sensitivities, which are therapeutic applications.

No

Vivasens® is a film-like varnish for the treatment of hypersensitive teeth, meaning it is a therapeutic device that treats a condition rather than diagnosing one. Its indications for use are focused on pain relief and protection, not on identifying the cause of sensitivity or any other dental condition. The contraindications also specify that it should not be used if sensitivity arises from pulpitis or other dental disease, reinforcing its role as a treatment rather than a diagnostic tool to determine the underlying cause.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "film-like varnish," which is a physical substance applied to teeth, indicating it is a hardware/material-based device, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVDs are used to examine specimens from the human body. The intended use of Vivasens® is for the treatment of hypersensitive teeth by applying a varnish directly to the teeth. It does not involve analyzing samples like blood, urine, or tissue.
  • The description focuses on a topical application for treatment. The device description and intended use clearly describe a film-like varnish applied to the teeth for therapeutic purposes.

Therefore, Vivasens® falls under the category of a dental therapeutic device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
