No
The summary describes a dental composite material and its intended uses, with no mention of AI or ML technology.

No
The device is a restorative material used for fillings and repairs of tooth structure, which is a structural rather than a therapeutic function.

No.
The device is a light-curing, radiopaque hybrid composite used for various types of dental restorations and fillings, which are treatment procedures, not diagnostic ones.

No

The device is described as a "flowable, light curing, radiopaque hyrbrid composite," which is a physical material used for dental restorations, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use describes a material used for restoring teeth (fillings, sealants, etc.). This is a dental restorative material applied directly to the patient's tooth structure.
  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) taken from the human body to provide information about a person's health.

This device is used on the body, not to test specimens from the body.
