Not Found

No
The summary describes a dental filling material and does not mention any AI or ML components or functionalities.

No
The device is a filling material for restoring teeth, which is a restorative rather than therapeutic function.

No
The device, LATIT FLOW, is described as a "filling material for restoring function to teeth" and is used for direct, fixed restorations, veneering, splinting, and repair. Its intended use is to treat existing conditions (caries, discolored teeth, mobile teeth) rather than to identify or diagnose them.

No

The intended use describes a filling material, which is a physical substance, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use of LATIT FLOW is as a filling material for restoring teeth. This is a direct treatment applied to the patient's body, not a test performed on a sample taken from the body to diagnose a condition.
  • Device Description: While the description is "Not Found," the intended use clearly defines its function as a restorative material.
  • No Mention of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting biomarkers, or providing diagnostic information.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. LATIT FLOW's function is purely restorative and therapeutic.

Dear Mr. Ingersoll:

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.
