Intended Use
Fluoride-releasing, light-cured bracket bonding system in the oral cavity of dental patients.
Device Description
EVOLVE is a fluoride-releasing, light-cured, color changing adhesive for bonding any type of orthodontic bracket to any enamel, porcelain, composite or metal surfaces when properly conditioned. It is a highly filled, smooth, tacky paste that helps prevent bracket flotation and delivers maximum bond strength on curing. Its contrasting blue color facilitates the ease of placement and clean-up once cured. The material is supplied in push syringes or syringe tips.
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the material properties and bonding capabilities of the adhesive, with no mention of AI or ML.

No.
A therapeutic device is one that treats or prevents a disease or condition. This device is an adhesive for bonding orthodontic brackets, which is a supportive material for a therapeutic process (orthodontics) rather than a therapeutic agent itself.

No
The device description indicates it is an adhesive system used for bonding orthodontic brackets, which is a treatment modality, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "fluoride-releasing, light-cured, color changing adhesive" supplied in "push syringes or syringe tips," indicating it is a physical material and delivery system, 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 bonding orthodontic brackets in the oral cavity of dental patients. This is a direct application within the body for a therapeutic purpose (orthodontic treatment).
  • Device Description: The description details a material used for bonding, not for analyzing samples taken from the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or providing diagnostic information about a patient's health condition.

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.
