The 510(k) summary describes a dental impression material, which is a physical substance, and contains no mention of software, algorithms, or AI/ML terms.
No
The device is described as an "impression material," suggesting it's used for diagnostic or procedural purposes rather than directly treating a condition or disease.
No
The device is described as an impression material used for creating physical impressions, not for diagnosing medical conditions. Its function is to create a mold, which is a manufacturing step, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device description clearly states it is a polyvinylsiloxane silicone impression material, which is a physical material, not software.
Based on the provided information, Flexitime Xtreme is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use describes the material being used to take impressions of teeth and oral structures within the patient's mouth. This is a direct interaction with the patient's body for the purpose of creating a physical model.
- Device Description: The description confirms it's an impression material.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVDs are typically used to examine specimens outside the body (in vitro) to provide information about a patient's health status. This involves analyzing blood, urine, tissue samples, etc. The provided information does not mention any such analysis or use of patient specimens.
Therefore, Flexitime Xtreme is a medical device, but it falls under the category of a dental impression material used directly on the patient, not an in vitro diagnostic.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
