No
The description focuses on the material properties and physical characteristics of the impression material, with no mention of AI or ML.

No
The device is an impression material used to create molds of teeth and oral structures, which are then used for various diagnostic and appliance fabrication purposes. It is not intended for treating or preventing a disease or condition.

No
The provided text describes an impression material used for creating models and impressions for various dental purposes. It does not mention any diagnostic function; its role is to capture the physical shape of dental structures.

No

The device description clearly states it is an "A-silicone impression 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 describes taking impressions for various dental purposes (models, dentures, retainers, provisional restorations, general dental impressions). This is a physical process for creating a mold of anatomical structures.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the material properties and how it's used to create an impression. It doesn't mention any analysis of biological samples or diagnostic testing.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring substances in biological samples
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening of diseases or conditions

In summary, the Kerr VPS Impression Material is a dental material used for creating physical impressions, not for performing diagnostic tests on biological samples.
